My fourteen years as a strings teacher has included both private lessons and public school settings. Many of his students have gone on to be involved in regional orchestras, Houston Youth Symphony, and university orchestras. From 2007 through 2010 orchestras under my care have earned consistent First Division ratings at UIL competitions, including “Sweepstakes” honors in 2008. Other superior and first division honors include those from the Humble Invitational, Pride of Texas and Soundwaves music festivals. Read More

Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Some of my students have won auditions for their regionals orchestra and also their all-state orchestra.
I have another student who is principal of her section in a music minor orchestra at her university.
Preparing for an audition will help the student even if they don't win it. The key is starting early enough before the deadline, having a game plan of how much to practice and then focusing in on the specific problems early on.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Break the problem down into small chunks. 1 to 2 measures of music. Work on it for 5-10 minutes and then move on. Practice your bow arm and left hand separately and then combine them later. Use a metronome! If you can't feel the pulse of the music you can't play it.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
For students under the age of 11 or so, are you as the parent able to encourage them to practice? And is the student not only interested but willing to commit 15-20 minutes 5-6 days per week to practice? If not, they will not make progress.
When will I start to see results?
Assuming the teacher is giving guidance and the student is receptive, results will be directly correlated to the amount of time and effort the student puts into it.
This is also greatly dependent on the age of the student and if they have had music lessons or are taking orchestra class in school or other musical activities.
I'd say after 1-2 months of practicing 5-6 days per week you should start to see and hear progress. If you are consistent with practicing, progress will be steady.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
In the 4th grade at my school students could start to learn a string instrument. I originally chose cello but had a bad experience with a teacher so then I switched to viola because a friend was doing it. I won a playing competition in the 4th grade playing Kookaburra and that was an encouragement to me to stick with it.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
All my teachers have inspired me with their high level of playing and their knowledge as well as their passion for teaching. They have helped me learn how to teach myself as I've gotten older which is an invaluable skill.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am proud that I've played principal viola in many orchestras, including the National Orchestral Institute Philharmonic and a music festival orchestra in Germany. I'm also proud of my students and my growth as a teacher. It is a great feeling when a student says they understand a concept, and when I hear them making progress in their playing!
