I approach teaching in layers. Step one leads to step two, we cant skip steps! I find it important that for beginners we follow this structure. More advanced students will be on a case by case basis in regards to where we start. I emphasize imprivisation in every lesson weather it be on drums, piano or trombone. Playing music right off the top of your head, and in the moment is something you can't learn out of a book! Read More

I am a passionate musician and actor and I want to share my joy of the arts with the world through performance, education, and collaboration. I am originally from Denver, CO where my music journey began. At the age of 5, I began taking piano lessons. A few years later, I began to branch out into drums, inspired by my dad who is also a drummer. This led to many ensemble settings for two decades, including jazz band, symphonic percussion, marching percussion, and rock bands. Read More

I've been teaching guitar for the past 4 years now, and I like to focus on a fun way of learning I achieve that by starting to learn songs right away no matter what level you have on guitar, we explore your favorites artists and I plan my class around that, teaching you chords progressions, scales, improvisation, how to read music, how to read tablatures, finger independence all of this keeps the class fun while learning all the information needed to be proficient with the instrument, we can go from a basic understanding of the guitar to a professional level.

I believe that choosing lesson material should always be a collaborative experience between student and teacher. Flexibility is one of my core values in teaching music, as I’ve found that each student has unique interests, goals, strengths, and weaknesses. Rather than going into lessons with a set curriculum, I like to give students some agency over what they’d like to learn while making sure to cover fundamentals as they apply along the way. Read More

I'm an passionate and enthusiastic music teacher. Music is the passion of my life, and I always want to share it with young children. Currently, I'm pursuing a AA degree in Piano Performance at El Camino College. I will transfer to University and get my Bachelor degree in Piano Performance in the future. In my life as a musician, I have had the opportunity to perform in the Choir at Carnegie Hall in New York, as well as performing in many concerts at school and local churches. Read More
Instruments: Piano
As a piano teacher, I use unique teaching methods that are customized to each student's needs and wants. For children, I like to start with fun and engaging songs before finding out what their favorite song is. This helps keep them motivated and interested in learning. When it comes to adult beginners, I also start with some adult beginner pieces and ask them what kind of music they enjoy listening to. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I provide Beginner to Intermediate lessons in voice and piano. I am a professional singer/songwriter/recording artist with 10 years of training in voice and 12 years of training in piano. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music Business from Anderson University (Anderson, Indiana) where I studied voice with Dr. Jeffrey Ballard and piano with Professor Ken Chan.By taking voice lessons with me, you will increase your vocal range, learn correct breathing methods and healthy practice/warm-up exercises, and gain confidence in your performance skills, all while singing the songs and music styles YOU enjoy.With piano lessons, you will learn beginner music theory (including scales, chords, time signatures, key signatures, etc.), exercises to increase dexterity, and how to play the songs YOU want to play.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
For techniques and learning songs, If you feel like you are stuck, slow it down. This is the advice that I have gotten from every single teacher that I had so far. SLOW IT DOWN until you feel comfortable with playing it.
Another thing is, always have a practice plan, what I always suggest to student, is to have a practice time sheet. For example, for first 1 hour, you will do rudiments, for second hour you will do sight reading practice, and for 3rd hour, your will practice on the music you are assigned or trying to learn. It is very easy to lose focus in while practicing, and having practice plan will help you to have an efficient practice.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Every one must be ready to take my lesson as long as they have passion and love for music.
Level and age don't matter in my lesson, I will be welcoming any kind of student from any age.
In my opinion, there should not be any requirement to start taking lesson except love of music. If your child loves to listen to music, taping table with music, sing, or anything, he/she is ready to learn music. The most important thing is to have fun and motivation, as long as students have a passion towards music, they already are students.
When will I start to see results?
It definitely depends on what a student is aiming for. If he/she is seeking to learn a song, you can obviously see a result when they are able to play. In my experience, from any level of student, they will be able to learn a song that they desire within 2 weeks or a month.
If he/she is seeking to be able to play improvise, I would say it will take 2,3 years to improvise on music.
If he/she is seeking to learn every 26 American rudiment, it will take 1,2 years to learn every one of them. Hope I answered this question, but in a nutshell, it really depends on what a student wants to learn.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I did not have a teacher that I was taking a lesson, when I got into music, for me the best teacher is musicians that you are always listening to. To be a good musician, you have to listen to a lot of music and get inspired. When I was 11, I started to listen to Guns 'N' Roses, Nirvana, Stone Temple Pilots, so on and so forth. I got inspired by them by simply listening to their music, I always want do to play music like them, that is what made me started to learn music.
But to be specifically about a teacher that I had in the past. Dave DiCenso, is definitely the teacher I got inspired for the most. He taught me how to be an over all good drummer, how to listen to other musicians on a gig, and how to play drum set musically. These things boosted my enthusiasm towards music, and I went into music way deeper after taking him as my private teacher.
