Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Ukulele
I am student-oriented teacher. I would like the student to explain their goals to me and we will work as a team to achieve those goals. This involves choosing the music to be studied. I have plenty of ideas for beginners who want help with choosing books. Then as lessons progress, student goals can be plugged I to instruction, no matter what music they are playing or singing. I encourage students to play for family and friends, and participate in music education events. Read More

Through Instagram, I have been able to find opportunities to teach and help other talented musicians throughout the world. I have learned that combining simple music theory and basic guitar methods for students of beginner levels can really help them skyrocket with their musical ambitions! I know it has helped me a lot, and everyone else I have ever worked with or taught. I love playing music and helping others with it so much because I know that not only will it make the student better, but it also tends to teach me a ton of new things too! Read More

Ive been teaching music lessons in piano, guitar, voice, and ukulele for 9 years. Though I was a vocal performance major in college, I am still proficient at guitar, piano, and ukulele. I love working with students who play multiple instruments or are interested in accompanying themselves while singing. Aside from teaching, I also dabble as a singer songwriter, occasionally playing around Orlando. I graduated from Rollins College with a degree in vocal performance in 2014. Read More

As I teach a wide variety of instruments, I can only give a short explanation on each instruments road map, However! My classical strings students will all be started in the Essential Elements book 1. Upon completion of said book, all strings students will then move to the Suzuki books to step from beginner to intermediate strings player. Should the student grow bored of said books, I also provide a plethora of outside material to create fun challenges with more familiar music (pop tunes, video game music, easy arrangements of orchestral works, etc.) if the need arise!

Since the age of 11, I have been composing music of all genres and styles, learning how to perform on as many instruments as I could get my hands on. I have worked as a producer making music for multimedia and have written music for groups to perform. I am a fun and friendly person that always strives to have an open mind, thinking of myself as only a beginner in this passion for music I have. Read More

I have a few books I've become fond of (such as Faber, Schirmer, Hal Leonard, etc), but I have gone months at a time using no books at all -- keeping students happy. Not everyone prefers the same approach, and while I can offer expert guidance for those who aren't sure what to do, one of my main goals is simply to experiment with students, an attitude I try to foster in them too: You can work and work on some particular piece or song, but if you did it for extrinsic purposes . . .

I began teaching private guitar lessons part time 10 years ago, and have been teaching students in my home studio for the last 5 years. Consistency before efficiency is been my philosophy of teaching, Practice makes perfect, Regular practice is one of the key points to gain passion for the instrument you are learning also the king of music you like to play is the type of music I will teach you first.

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
When people started telling me that's what I should do.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I decided by seeing other musicians play and them told me ?"Its not that hard, you just have to DO it (practice occasionally at your leisure)
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
Brown Sugar, by the Rolling Stones, because it has such a unique sound (being in G tuning and utilizing special chording and embellishments to the chords), and it is such a rousing song, that it transforms the audience form lackluster to being lively and dancing.
Although the original recorded words were offensive, I change those words a bit, so the song is not offensive, as do the Rolling Stones themselves, when they play in concert.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
1. Always keep your instrument HANDY (ex. on a music stand, where you can reach over and pick it up often) - not in a case, and put away.
2. Go slow, and increase speed as is comfortable for you.
3. No need to keep to a strict schedule for prctice. just do it now & then, when it suits you. You'll feel better about it that way, and your prctices will be more like fun than work.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Ordinarily age 10 (although some have done well at younger ages). Kids learn to read and write as early as age 6 or 7, so some kids would be good for starting lessons even that young.
When will I start to see results?
After the very FIRST lesson. (ex. with the guitar, just 3 simple chords will allow you to play literally hundreds of songs and tunes) Same with the mandolin. Even with the violin you could walk away after just 1 hour, already able to play a simple, short tune melody.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I was inspired by a guitar player, who was a friend, and who played on stage. I got my first lessons from him.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
No special reason. I play 3 instruments (guitar, violin/fiddle, and mandolin) all in equal amounts. I love all 3, and neither is primary to the other.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Classic rock on the solid body electric guitar (Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton, the Cream, Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, Neil Young)
On the violin - popular songs like the Christmas songs Joy to the World, Deck the Halls, Silent Night, Jingle Bells, New Years Eve song (Auld Lang Syne), Summertime, America the Beautiful, You Are My Sunshine, Beethoven's 9th Symphony, Santa Lucia, O Sole Mio, Never on Sunday, etc
European fiddle tunes (bordering on classical violin) - I like the melodies, and general tone of the tunes. American fiddle tunes are good too, but they aren't as complex and musical as the European tunes, which are similar to classical music.
These tunes were all originally dance music, but they have been modified slightly (jazzed up), to make them more as listening music, and I teach students how to do this themselves, for any tune they may play.
I also like Bluegrass mandolin, and rock music on the guitar. I like them all very much.
Bluegrass - a combination of Country, Folk, and Jazz.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Being good music listener.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Bowing on the violin/fiddle.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I do have a book that I refer to for my mandolin lessons. It is very instructive, and especially for movable chords.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
Best thing is to just pick up the instrument at random times when you feel like it, and play with it. This is fun and becomes very useful practice as well.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Playing the baroque piece, Rights of Man (in E minor) on the violin
Also, playing the Rolling Stones song Brown Sugar, in open G tuning, on the guitar (either acoustic or electric)

My daughter is 7 and wants to learn guitar. Do you teach online only or in person? Not sure how this works but I am looking for a traditional one on one teacher for her.
