Instruments: Guitar Saxophone Ukulele Music Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I adapt my lesson plan according to the student's level, interests and hobbies away from music. All beginner students start with an Essential Elements series of books to help them understand the process of actually playing their instrument. Once this has been achieved or if the student is already past this level, I like to inquire about what the student wants to learn and improve on. With this information, I give them resources or step by step guidelines to help them with their goal. Read More

Working with students and sharing my love of music is my passion and is what motivates me as an instructor. In 2017, I graduated from Berklee College of Music with a dual Bachelor's Degree in Performance and Contemporary Writing in Production. Throughout my life as a musician I have enjoyed opportunities performing all over the world, at venues such as Jazz at Lincoln Center and the Blue Note Jazz Club in NYC, along with touring Chile, Spain, Canada, Dominican Republic, and Panama with the Berklee Global Jazz Institute.

I start with theory and technique for beginning trainees, combined with songs that utilize the modes and scales that the trainee will be learning, thus combining the academic with the practical. More specifically, I feel that learning scales and modes are of vital importance to any musician (no matter the skill level), as such a thing is necessary not only for improvisation (which is very important as my background is in jazz), but also for writing music, which I feel that every musician should do in addition to playing other people's music.

As a recent graduate, I consistently taught many students throughout my experience studying higher education. During this time, I was able to teach 60-80 students both privately and within an ensemble setting. Encouraging students to become motivated and inspired in a variety of creative ways is one of my main key points that I love to emphasize for younger students, as it tends helps students to progress and gain a passion for the instruments they're working with.

I am an Argentinian born, Brazilian raised drummer/percussionist based in Brooklyn since 2011. I spent the previous three years studying at Berklee College of Music in Boston. I've been teaching since 2005, and it's one of my favorite things to do. The feeling of passing your knowledge along to someone else and see them become better musicians is very satisfying to me. I also work on Broadway, off-Broadway and with several artists as a touring/recording musician. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice

I have been teaching voice and piano for the last four years. I worked with a voice teacher back home where he taught me classical and pop/rock singing. I am very involved to every single student and I arrange the lesson accordingly. Some people come to me to work on technique and improve certain areas of singing and others are coming to work on performance aspects. I like to make the lessons interesting with fresh ideas and up-to-date exercises. Read More
