Instruments: Piano Cello
I began teaching music very soon after I got my piano and cello. First, I give some educational concerts, before playing I explained a little the pieces' background. During my Bachelor's degree, I had the opportunity to work in some academies in Merida, Yucatan. I was the teacher of piano and cello and teaching to some beginners who were starting from scratch. In 2019, I enrolled in the Master's degree at UTRGV, performance track. Read More
Instruments: Piano Music Keyboard
I have been teaching musicians of all ages and levels ever since my first year of undergraduate in 2016. I have been contracted every summer since then by Summer Sonatina, a piano camp in Bennington, VT, to teach five to six 45 minute lessons a day. While I do teach at all levels, I tend to gravitate more towards serious intermediate-advanced students. I am a classical pianist, but am able to teach any and all styles involving piano or any other keyboard instruments. Read More

I started taking guitar lessons at 8, but had a difficult time with discipline and commitment, which stemmed from not feeling connected with my teacher. This sparked a chain reaction of thought and observation for me. Throughout my entire education process, I was always fascinated with communication and would pay special attention to the way my instructors informed the students of lesson plans and concepts. This inspired me to be the change that I wanted to see. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin Viola Ukulele Fiddle Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I began teaching music in my college days. I was a music director in the public schools. I have been consistently teaching music in my home studio for the past 11 years. I am passionate about being a teacher and teaching students of all ages. I enjoy teaching classical music because it is a firm foundation for all other genres of music. If one can play classical, they can play anything. Read More

Each student is unique in the way they learn and progress. I come in to each new lesson trying to learn what works best for each student, as well as what each student is trying to gain from the lessons. For example a very young student may just need exposure to the world of music in a very fun learing atmosphere, while an older or more advanced student may want more a more intense lesson. Read More
Instruments: Piano
From working in childcare for over 15 years to being a Montessori pre-school teacher to training adults in different job fields I can teach all age ranges of people. Teaching is something that comes natural to me. Sharing the experience of learning a new skill to mastering it, is very rewarding to me. I enjoy motivating and making a hobby or passion fun and fulfilling for an individual to experience. I am accepting of all and everyone as long as they have a passion for piano and learning the foundations of it! Read More

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Well yes, it was my first band director. Granted that I had already chosen to be in band as an elective in middle school, I had never really played an instrument before and my musical knowledge was practically nonexistent. But his approach towards teaching was simple enough for me to make the connection between learning how to properly hold my instrument and obtain a decent tone from it all while learning to read music.
But my first band teacher also provided time during lunch and after school in which to practice, and whenever available, he would help with my intonation, articulation, breathing skills, and even dynamics (volume) and this encouraged me to keep practicing which only results in an upward-spiral of skill building! towards continued musical progress!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
I have students as young as 3 and some of my students have special needs. However, you certainly know your child better than I do: What is their temperament like? I have but one rule: You have to WANT this...if this musical interest is not made a desired priority ahead of perhaps other extra-curricular activities, then the student will not put outside practice into this and it will become a downward-spiral. Vice-versa, with my positive energy and enthusiasm, I can keep any willing student engaged for a 30-minute, 45-minute, or even 1 to 1.5 hour session.
When will I start to see results?
I focus on making goals--set an objective for each day!
Instead of time being the measure of effort, set a goal for both skills and performance!
For example, one needs to practice exercises just to maintain current skills...so include this in your regular practice repertoire and focus on HOW to play them properly.
But focus on a song...break the piece down into sections (if it is a whole page or longer in length) and focus on individual measures at a time. With each attempt, determine what errors are occurring and WHY--then, by process of deduction, you will rule out mistakes and improve your odds of accuracy until you are so familiar with WHAT to do that you can play this properly 10 times out of 10!
Thus, every practice session should yield results...each session is one small building block towards successful performance of a song and mastery of your instrument!
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Find a place where you can focus and pick a routine time in order to develop the habit of regular practice.
Instead of practicing for a designated amount of time, make a goal (e.g., Today I am going to work on this song, and I will finish when I can play it correctly 10 times out of 10 attempts!) If the song is multiple pages in length, then focus on just one section of it per day and break it down into measures.
Various exercises such as scales and other rudiments need to be practiced in order to maintain skills.
But always make time (even if it's just 5 minutes) for playing just for fun! I strongly encourage this!
