I have worked as an educator in a variety of settings, as well as been the recipient of countless voice lessons, vocal coachings, workshops, and masterclasses.

Perhaps we could make up a new song with the note names. Or for example an older adult who is having memory problems for learning a new piece, but is very good at associating the sound of music with a feeling or image.

It makes me very happy to watch each individual begin to understand and harness their own personal strengths during the learning process. Read More

I love teaching because it teaches me more than I can ever learn from a piece of music. Seeing my student grow as a musician and as his/her own individual character/personality. I've taught students as young as 3 to college graduates who simply want to get some pieces under their fingers. I've also taught masterclasses to my mom's students and to students at UCLA, and I find that all of us connect in some way musically as we all love and cherish the same composers whose music we still play today.
