For now, though, I plan on sharing everything I know and have learned throughout the years of studying music and guitar, inside and outside of school! I currently reside at home with family (mother and little brother alongside me) in Oviedo, right by the University of Central Florida. I am located in the River Walk neighborhood. In this home, I have my own little studio where I study, write, record, and teach music! Read More

My first music instruction job was at a summer day camp. I was 19. I taught group guitar lessons. I've been teaching private music lessons ever since. I, myself, had wonderful public school music teachers as well as private instruction in piano and voice. I teach my students what I was taught. No matter what kind of music the student wishes to learn, knowledge of music theory must be taught through the materials being studied. Read More

Apart from treating time as the precious resource it is (meaning I will give your time the utmost respect and expect the same from you) . . . my style is friendly, patient, and "open" to an extreme. If you have particular goals, communicate them to me, and I will teach you everything relevant to them. If you don't, I will help you identify your goals. If you want to remain "goal-free" (for example, because you used to have some forceful teacher, punishing you for your "lack of dedication" or the like), I have a blast simply looking into facets of music with a curious student.

I'm a very open and positive teacher who's quick to validate your learning achievements whether you're a fast and intuitive learner, or a bit more introverted and contemplative. I'm a firm believer in encouraging and uplifting others when I'm given the opportunity to create a lasting and positive impact through teaching music. When you feel like the material that's being taught clicks, you see how the direction of your learning goals begin to fully take shape, and you're achieving the most out of your learning style, the opportunities that can arise will amaze you.

For younger students I start with showcasing what they can achieve with practice and perseverance. I do that by showing my playing. Then we start with the chromatic scale so the fingers can get use to the strings and moving around the fretboard. Same with drums but we start with easy hits and patterns. For adults I would talk about what are their interest and goal in music (genre, style, job, etc) and go from there. Read More

I've also found that a combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy the piano and motivate them to practice and continue to learn. If a student isn't having fun in their lessons, then I'm not doing my job! My students are encouraged to enter competitions and recitals, as well as work on composing their own original material, so they can feel good about their accomplishments and stay motivated to learn.
