My Experience goes back to my early and young age. I started to take lessons with a private instructor called Manolo Parra, a wonderful flamenco and classical guitarist.

At the same time I participated and helped in church choirs as member and choir director making arrangements for original compositions and others. Today I'm still composing, arranging and directing a musical group. Read More

I began my career not as a teacher but as a performer of music. Originally, it was my ultimate goal to reach the highest obtainable musical ability through performance of the oboe and English horn. I practiced six hours daily regardless of health condition, and was exceptionally thorough while preparing for solos and concerts. Through the University of Northern Iowas Study Abroad Program, I was afforded the opportunity to study German, live with an Austrian host family and attend classes at both the citys university and music conservatory.

My experience in teaching has been mainly focused on voluntary work, in teaching close friends, family and friends. I have always wanted to teach the joys of Classical Music to all ages. I have encouraged those of my teaching, to always have a consistency and regular practice so that with patience and time, they will see not only improvement but will also developed a passion for the instrument. I think that the key to becoming a piano virtuoso is having fun while learning, being patient, determined, persistent, and consistent. Read More

I'm a pianist, I've been playing playing the piano since I was 10 years old, currently 25 years old.

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 Voice

My lessons include a number of activities including piano instruction, ear training, theory, technique, and flash cards.  They are all great learning tools for a well-rounded music education. I begin teaching sight reading almost from the first lesson. It is important for me as a teacher to see students make correlations between what they hear and see. Note memorization is also essential, but rather than simply using the standard acronyms for staff reading or focus on naming notes individually, I teach students early on to recognize the overall shape of the music they read Read More
