My teaching experience dates back after my college years during the years of home private studying most musical instruments as I began teaching various instruments to group students at the christian churches. When some of my advanced students started to request private lessons, I founded College Music Lessons. I never have students who just can not understand their instruments. They took the first lessons; they ready for the next ones. Read More

I started teaching In New York over 20 years ago while in college and playing in bands. I have enjoyed teaching all types of people with a variety of interests and at all levels. I had the pleasure of teaching young children and creating fun and highly interactive lessons. I have held group lessons and also would teach autistic adults and senior citizens. I'm happy to provide individual custom-tailored lessons to make you the best player you can be. Read More
Instruments: Piano Keyboard
I usually start with a beginners book for children or adults. We go through the lessons at their own speed. As for practicing the scales, I do not introduce them until the students is thoroughly familiar with the keys (the alphabet of the keys.) For adults I introduce the scales and arpeggios much earlier. I work with the students at their own speed. They like my style of teaching. Lessons with me do not seem like a chore because I am a teacher who does not get upset with the students . Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Orchestral Percussion Music Keyboard
Ive been told I am a very encouraging teacher. My goal is to teach the student something new in every class. Lessons can focus on technique, performance, sight reading / singing, ear training, music history, music theory, composition, improvisation, fakebooks and more. Piano lessons can cover everything from how to sit at the piano to using rotational movements to get accuracy in large leaps. I focus on musicality. A student does have to be Lang Lang to sound beautiful. Read More

I motivate my students by being interactive. With children who are new to music, I use my personal method, which is characterized by providing knowledge while playing interactive games, which helps the children grasp music-related issues. With the older students, I try to inspire them by playing duets, and placing emphasis on a variety of repertoire. I also emphasize the theory of music as an indispensable element of learning instrument. Read More

My teaching experience started when I was a musician at the University of Maryland. I was able to work with undergraduate vocal students and had a private studio where I worked with students over the DC/Baltimore area. I continued my teaching at the Doral conservatory of music where I worked with many young singers hoping to get into some of the best private music schools in the Miami area. Read More

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Understand the interpretation. I mean it is not only to "play" the notes.
We have also to know how to do art, how to do music, make the music sound great.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I really thinK that for begginers, the old John Thompson methods are superb.
Also Hal Leonard for adults are, excellent.
I also recommend the versions of Bastien.
And I also use my own versions of any music and exercises, especially developed for each one of the particularities of my students.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
No, I am afraid that I am the only musician in my family.... And they, writers, poets, scientifics, are very proud of me!
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I did study a lot as a gifted child.
I always have being doing music even when i was studying Psychology in University, so I guess I was born to be a musician.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
Because I needed to do it! to accompany my singers and choristers.
I want to say that playing and singing were always simultaneous activities for me.
Later I learn to play recorder, percussion, guitar, venezuelan cuatro, harmonica and I am thinking in studying some violin!
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I love lots of pieces in a lot of styles. I cannot decide for just one.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Well, I also study Psychology in University (can you believe that?!).
I think that it helps me a lot with my students.
I like to help people and listen to them so, yes, I would be a Psychologist.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I am privileged to have had the opportunity to perform the most important works of the great composers as well of the blues, jazz and pop. (long story!)
In the piano, what I like most is to accompany in the enormous field of what can be called pop music, including jazz, blues, gospel, boleros, etc.
Especially accompanying people singing, thank God my students love it, nothing like the real thing, doing music "live". I mean Karaoke and tracks are OK because usually we do not have the opportunity of having at our disposal an orchestra.
So the piano accompanies really well.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
My degrees are related to conducting and specially Choirs, I love Human voice.
and also in order to be a good Choral Director you have to play piano and sing with proficiency. Piano is the instrument I played most as a child.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
it all depends of the time the student has for practicing.
You cannot forget the exercises, (scales, etc.), as well as the warming ups for Voice students, and also some the music pieces created to exercise meanwhile you actually do music without sounding like a simple exercise.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
For me my best accomplishment apart of the prizes and award that I have won (and I expect keep winning!) is the love and respect of my students.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Yes some of them have won prizes in talent shows and concerts.
They were very talented.
But ALL of them were absolutely determined to be the best on their respective musical fields even not wanting to be professional musicians.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I always loved the piano and singing, which I believe are two complimentary musical Besides my interest in composing since I was very young determined that piano is the king instrument to do musical creations like no other.
I was a gifted kid for music and my parents thought that the best will be begin with piano.
