Music Lessons in Berino, NM

Instruments: Violin Cello Viola Classical Guitar

I enjoy accommodating students with the exact type of lessons they need. For beginners I use a slow approach at first, attempting to minimize the chance of bad habits. We begin with starting with proper hold of the instruments, left hand placement, and simple pizzicato; the same would be done with guitar. After a methodical start we would launch into various selections of repertoire which all foster growth and steady challenge. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone Drums

I am the students greatest motivator. I love to bring out the best in all of my students and help them discover things about their musical capacities that they never have before. I am highly enthusiastic and believe that every one learns at their own pace. Its never about how quickly you learn something, but about how well you learn it, even if it takes time. I like to acknowledge the students progress and their accomplishments because I believe it helps the student to have the desire to keep learning and progressing. Read More

Instruments: Piano

I'm a pianist, I've been playing playing the piano since I was 10 years old, currently 25 years old. A major highlight in my musical education was attending the high school for performing and visual arts in Houston Texas where I studied under Mr. Morales who shares my last name. I've performed with various chamber groups but I have spent my time mostly doing solo work. I consider myself primarily as a classical musician though I do enjoy various genres of music like jazz, and blues. Read More

Instruments: Piano

When I started my piano lessons, I worked mostly with the Hanon exercises. Since this book has always been essential material to my learning, I will use this book to teach the beginning students and show them that exercises can also be fun and enjoyable to play, as I find them to be. As the student begins to dominate the basics of piano, I will introduce simple and easy pieces of Classical Music that will not only be fundamental to the beginner student's learning but also of the students liking; this way the learning will also be enjoyable and fun.

Instruments: Piano Voice Oboe

I first always start with warm-ups. I believe warm-ups really are the building blocks of technique which is vital to learning piano, voice or any instrument under the sun. Next we look at the level or etude book if we are working with piano or instruments. These songs are short and have a mini lesson/technique hidden in them. These further build the students' ability to play more difficult pieces later. Read More

Instruments: Trumpet

I attended St. Olaf College for my undergraduate degree and did a Bachelor's of Music in Trumpet Performance and Bachelor's of Arts in Music Theory/Composition. After graduating in 2009, I volunteered for a year as a music teacher in rural Malaysia. Upon returning to the US, I did a Master's of Music at Eastman School of Music before working as a teacher and freelancer in Singapore for two years. I love playing and teaching all kinds of music!
