Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone
My teaching experience may not be centered around lessons in a private studio, but it is still centered around music and the individual student. I have extensive experience tutoring students in music theory at all levels (from basic reading comprehension to large-scale analysis of contemporary works), and through that I have come to understand that knowing the student as an individual and understanding their desires and motivations are the key to connecting with one and teaching successfully.

Instruments: Piano Guitar
Teaching is something I naturally love doing, simply because I see it as an opportunity to share my interest and passion for a particular subject with someone, so that they may develop the same fondness for that subject. I believe the most important role of a teacher is to spark passion and curiosity in his student, hence my goal is to successfully demonstrate to my students why music is so amazing!I have about a year of teaching experience, tutoring high school students.I also have been teaching piano to my roommates and friends during my college, and have successfully hooked many of them to music.

I have taught dozens students from over 20 countries about songwriting, guitar playing, singing, lyric writing, piano, ukulele and more. Since 2011 I have played in over 1000 stages, starting in my hometown of Corrientes, Argentina, at first playing on the streets for tips and later moving onto bars, later theaters, and now touring full time. Teaching has always been something I have gravitated towards, specially after several requests from my listeners. I have ample examples of frustrated or disillusioned kids and adults that left my classes with their heads held high, because they finally felt they were moving another more step towards their musical goals.

Instruments: Piano Voice Organ Keyboard
I have been sharing my love of music since first learning at age four! I am a classically-trained pianist and organist with a Bachelor of Music degree in Piano Performance from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.Throughout high school and college, I have had opportunities to study voice and sing in honors and collegiate choirs. Since graduating in 2014, I have enjoyed music making on the west coast while living in Oregon. Read More

I am an enthusiastic and knowledgeable instructor who loves sharing my love of music with students. In 2011 I graduated from Haverford College as a Music Minor and History Major. I write songs constantly and have performed hundreds of times as both a solo artist and with bands that I have formed. I have performed in Maine, Massachusetts, New York, Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, California, North Carolina, Texas and Louisiana. I work every day to become a better singer, songwright, and instrumentalist, and I appreciate working with those who share a similar drive to excel. Read More

My teaching experience started in 2009. Since then I have consistently taught students ranging from 3 years old to wise adults over 80 years. I generally teach in my home studio because I find students benefit much more than being at their home. I make exceptions for those with busy schedules (however I highly recommend having lessons outside your home). Encouraging a personal lesson and education is one of my focuses as it tends to help the student progress and maintain a passion for the instrument and music. Read More

I have played guitar professionally for 15 years, first in the Maryland/DC metro area and for the past 8 years in New Orleans and the Gulf Coast. This includes several bands of my own creation that have toured the region as well as dozens of substitute stints filling in for rock, jazz, blues, and pop groups. In addition to bands, I also performed as a solo classical and jazz guitarist and have performed for politicians and celebrities in exclusive private events. Read More

When will I start to see results?
The more consistently you practice, the quicker the results will be. But the key is to have patience! It will take time. Anything good takes time and is worth waiting for. The beauty of music is that there is always more to learn and even when you get to the skill level of a professional musician or a college graduate of music school, you will still want more results. So enjoy the process! But as I said before, 5 minutes of focused practice a day will go miles farther than an hour or two here and another hour later in the week.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If a child can talk or walk, they can play an instrument! It is never to early to start learning. Some of the best musicians in the world started playing music around the time they started talking. If anything, just put an instrument in their hands and let them get used to the feel of it, or let them enjoy making the sounds of it. In one of my favorite books on music education, Effortless Mastery, Kenny Werner often talks of letting go of the need to sound good and going back to the state of mind of a child first playing an instrument. I think that could be the most valuable time in learning music.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
First of all, enjoy it. It should not be a chore. If it is, find a way to make it fun (ex. practice to fun backing tracks instead of a click metronome).
Second, 5 minutes a day of focused practice is better than 2 hours of unfocused frustrated practice. Set a 5 minute goal each day, and when the timer goes off, if you're still enjoying it, keep practicing. If not, put it away until tomorrow!
Third, don't move on until you have the material you are working on truly mastered. Trust me, you will enjoy playing it much more once you have mastered it!
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
Right now I try to put in at least 20-30 minutes a day doing warmups on the upright bass, and often that's all I do! My warmups generally include playing slow scales bowed with a tuner or a drone and some metronome practice (walking a fast bass line with the metronome only on beat 4, or a really slow bass line and trying to keep the time on my own). I also spend a lot of time gigging and going to jam sessions, which I consider practice as well. If I have extra solo practice time, I generally spend it learning new tunes (there are ALWAYS more to learn!) or transcribing bass lines or solos.
