These practices immediately result in visible positive changes. In the learning process, defining the goals is crucial. Depending on a particular case of the student, I proof-check the competition or audition demos, find people who could help my students’ aspirations. I make sure to articulate my critique in the most constructive way possible and to listen. I am convinced that to educate an individual efficiently, one needs to understand the student’s background, psychological profile, temperament, and character. Read More

Beginners - intermediate have a healthy helping of both theory ( notes, scales, chords), technique ( physical drills), and creativity! Meaning, songwriting, listening, learning favorite songs.. improvisation! This of course varies from student to student, but whatever they are physically and mentally able to handle at the time, is what we will embark on -- nothing challenging enough to keep anyone away from their chosen instrument -- it's supposed to be fun - 'PLAY"ing music!

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
As a musician, I have had the privilege of performing in some of the world's most esteemed venues and traveling to far-flung corners of the globe. However, the accomplishment that brings me the greatest sense of pride is the opportunity to now play alongside musicians whom I once deeply admired - a truly humbling experience. Even more than this, I find immense satisfaction in the joy that my music brings to my listeners. Witnessing the glimmer in their eyes and the happiness on their faces during a performance is a reward unlike any other.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have a Bachelor degree in Music Performance. I chose that because I was mainly interested becoming a performing musician. During my time at college I started to teach on the side and developed a passion for that as well.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
First, I try to disconnect from any outer factors and letting go of distracting thoughts by taking a few deep breaths. Then I usually like to check in with my instrument. Therefore I use some specific strokes and exercises that I found to work well for me personally, followed by warming up exercises and techniques I currently work on and rudimental timing exercises. Sometimes I have to learn new tunes for rehearsals or performances so I give them a listen and work on any breaks or transitions that might be happening.
When will I start to see results?
The time it takes to see results in instrument practice can vary depending on various factors, including your skill level, the amount of practice time you put in, the complexity of the music you are learning, and the quality of your practice. Generally, you may start to notice some improvement in your playing within a few weeks of consistent practice. However, significant progress often takes months or even years of dedicated effort. It's important to remember that progress is not always linear and that there may be periods of frustration or slow progress. Stay patient, stay committed, and enjoy the process of learning and growing as a musician.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
My first instrument was guitar, and I was quite passionate about it. Eventually I started playing in a bad where there was a hand percussionist, and it was the first time I ever had access to congas. The percussionist showed me some a basic groove, and I was sold! It was like love at first sight (touch?).
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
There are a few things to consider when determining if your child is ready for music lessons. Look for signs of interest and curiosity in music, such as singing along to songs or expressing a desire to play an instrument. Consider their age and attention span, as well as their ability to follow instructions and practice regularly. It's also important to have realistic expectations and understand that progress takes time and patience. Ultimately, it's up to you and your child to decide if they are ready and willing to commit to music lessons.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Consistent and focused practice is key. Set specific goals, break them down into manageable chunks, and practice regularly. Record yourself to track progress and seek feedback from a teacher or mentor.
