Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin
I like to teach at the student's pace or what their parents have in mind. When I learned piano, my parents wanted me to learn at a high pace, and forced me to rush everything. As a result, I was able to play a lot of pieces, but the quality of the songs were not the best. I ended up slowing down and spent time to actually work on the tiny details of each song. Read More

Instruments: Guitar Voice Ukulele Acoustic Guitar
My teaching style flows from my teaching philosophy: Whole-heatedly meet a student where they are, and THEN, respectfully lead them to where you as the educator know that they need to go...Establishing a true RELATIONSHIP with a student, where they know that you have THEIR best interests in mind is absolutely fundamental. As in any relationship, trust and respect are essential, and establishing a firm foundation in those areas should be just as important as the academic and skill development aspects of teaching.

Instruments: Guitar
I like to focus on the music with a relaxed approach and help create a positive and supportive environment with apatient, easy going manner. I'm comfortable going over small sections of music, looking at new material, exercises, practicing songs, explaining concepts that help the student gain insight and improve on the guitar. For assessment purposes I like toask a few questions pertaining to the music, styles and particular artists that the student has an interest in to shape a individual lesson with custom material.I believe inemphasizing musicianship and practical aspects of learning guitar while realizing that aspirations, inspiration and individual creativity are so important.Music lessons areenjoyable!

Instruments: Guitar Music Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I started teaching guitar when I was in Highschool(4 years ago), initially learning guitar in public school I had a very large communal aspect of what specifically Classical Guitar was. As I grew and took guitar more seriously, I entered a high school classical guitar class, many of my peers were beginners, and me having had taken lessons for 5 years prior the teacher allowed me to help out with teaching the instrument.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Keyboard Acoustic Guitar
My teaching style is one of deep listening to the student in their musical process, and from this creating the conditions for them to expand into new dimensions of musicality. I am an expert in creative process, and love working with students especially on songwriting, composition, electronic music production, and other such creative domains. In addition, my professional work is focused on a leading edge of musical education that is just emerging and beginning to be understood: developing the listening faculty as a pathway to musical excellence; for as the perceptual foci is polished, so does the sensori-motor engagement discover new possibilities.

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
It was always a goal of mine to improve and become a professional musician in the genre. Overtime I noticed my playing abilities became greater and greater over the years and I soon as I knew it I was already improving to the next level in a short amount of time this proved to me that it was what I needed to do in life. I can’t say there was a specific defining moment because music is a lifetime journey but if I had to say there was a specific moment It would definitely be receiving my first guitar when I was 12 years old that they change my life. I was filled with so much joy and happiness something that I can always say was huge for me.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
I can definitely say music has ran in my family over the years. My mother was a great singer when I was a kid and I could deathly say that rubbed off on me with playing guitar. Music was always played in my house it was a huge part of the family so I can say I definitely come from a musical family. Music is an expression which I feel can hold a family together and build a strong infrastructure. My family always have supported my musical talents and abilities and I’ve always push me to further it I am thankful for their support and being passionate towards music!
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I’ve deafly only stuck with one instrument because I believe if you really have a passion for that one estimate you’ll stick with that only to achieve complete greatness. I have dabbled around with bass and piano in my younger years taking classes in it and learning theory behind those but definitely guitar has only been my first and my one true love. I could never betray playing guitar for another instrument because it’s my favorite instrument to play and has always been since I was a young man and I think my parents for that support.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Jazz guitar is definitely a huge influence of mine and one of my favorite styles to play it’s definitely something that requires a great deal of knowledge and preciseness behind this playing. I just love the sounds that creates and it’s definitely something I want to further my abilities in every day it’s pushing me to take it to the next level and really master the genre. Overtime when I’m older I deafly want to have a larger influence in this genre as long as I keep up my playing I deafly will be able to master it over the years.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
My dream is to perform all 24 of Paganini’s Caprices clean and thoroughly. His pieces are so rigorous and tedious and technical that it would definitely require a great amount of skill to complete them all simultaneously and clean. I know one day I will be able to achieve this and it’s definitely a huge dream of mine because I love his pieces and the way they sound they are definitely beautiful instrumental pieces to practice. I myself as a musician work on these pieces daily in hopes of finally achieving them I know one day I will!
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
If I wasn’t a musician I definitely would be a teacher in some other form of art because of course music is an artform. I definitely get up the filming from teaching so it’s something that I would be doing regardless whether it was guitar not. There’s no better feeling than teaching someone in seeing them improve with whatever they do it’s such a huge for filming in life I can’t describe the feeling I get from teaching it’s like military experience I wouldn’t be doing anything else instead because it’s my passion!
