Instruments: Guitar Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

My teaching style is not in a box. I would need to get to know the student, understand the goal of the student, understand the learning process of the student. I do have structure depending on the level of the student but there is much room for customization as not every student is the same, neither does everyone think the same. It is my goal to reach who you are as a person so I can better assist you on your path in music. Read More

Instruments: Trumpet Music

I began teaching lessons while still in high school through a mentorship program with music students in local middle schools. Being able to teach at such a young age not only encouraged personal growth on my instrument but inspired my love for teaching and sharing a joy of music. I continued teaching lessons to middle and high school students throughout my undergraduate program and added music theory and composition elements into my instrumental lessons in order to appeal to more learning styles and provide a comprehensive understanding to encourage mindfulness and success.

Instruments: Piano

I primarily use the Bastien teaching style. The musical concepts are taught in a progressive and logical manner and thus are easy to follow. The student is given time to experience a new theory using a hands on approach. Then, the student works on theory in written pages. Finally, the student applies what is learned in new pieces as they go forward in their musical instruction. Read More

Instruments: Piano Cello

Teaching and performing are two of my musical passions which have been growing since my days as a child star dancer/pianist in the 1960's, up to today as a professional 'cellist/ethnomusicologist. In addition to performing on both instruments, I also composed award winning pieces, premiered works as a 'cellist and also was fortunate to have the late great Croatian composer Boris Papandopulo write a solo work for me, just before he passed.
