I like to see students getting excited about learning new concepts in music. I also like to see music becoming a part of their lives and learning. I enjoy passing on what I've been given.

A lot of technical definition and mastery of emotional delivery. We also work on breathing, phrasing and song interpretation, song delivery and characterization. I push my students, but gently and with a lot of sound encouragement. Most of my students become obsessed with singing once they realize how good they sound when the proper techniques are applied. Professional business skill development is also introduced to advanced singing students. I'm rather animate about work done outside the studio as well as in lesson sessions. Read More

Again, as stated above, my approach is based on the proven CAGED system, and stresses mastery of the basics, using the language and concepts of "classical", jazz and blues -in particular. I begin by establishing what students (already) know and don't know about music and their chosen instruments, making connections between pre-existing knowledge and concepts, and "filling in holes" -while teaching these basics. Then, as soon as students are able, we begin applying this knowledge -these concepts- to their preferred musical mediums -in addition to "branching out" to apply basic knowledge/concepts/skills to increasingly more advanced applications.

I pride myself in my ability to create unique, individual lesson plans for my students. First, the student and I will have a consultation to discuss the specific goals and aspirations they have for their voice. After this discussion, we will create goals accordingly.

We will also address other musical ideas or issues that the student my have. Read More
