Music Lessons in Lithia, FL

Instruments: Violin Viola

Over the course of the past nine years I have taught in private music schools, public schools, and students' homes. My lessons are structured around what the student wants. For example, I have taught many students in middle and high school who wanted to prepare for competitions or college auditions. I have also taught many young children, who simply enjoy the sound of a stringed instrument and want to make that sound themselves! Read More

Since I am also a composer and arranger, I tend to be partial towards the use of my own "homemade" methods.... taking on the idea of composers like Mozart, Beethoven and Schumann (example would be Album of the Young) and writing simple pieces that reinforce specific technical challenges like double thirds, left hand arpeggios, consecutive octaves, pedalling and so on. Sometimes if I have a student that likes Pink Floyd or Eric Clapton, for instance, I will do my best to come up with a simplified version of a particular song using good ole staff paper. Read More

Uruguay, Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia, among others. They have used the orchestral practice to rescue the childhood, abandoned youth, poverty, and to build and peace zone. At the same time, I can mention cases such as that of Maestro Gustavo Dudamel, who was my student in Venezuela, who was raised in a precarious social and economic context. Today he is one of the most outstanding musicians and orchestral conductors at an international level. 3- My philosophy is “To Play and To Fight”, tight to the wish of “to be” through music.

For beginners I like to start with using John W. Schaum's Music book as well as helping them to learn basic music theory in order to be able to keep time and know how to read music.  I help them to know their music scales so that they know them by heart when playing music.   I also inspire my students to join recitals in school as well as encourage them to practice daily as well as play with others.
