If I can get a student to feel excited and motivated from what theyre learning, I consider the lesson to be a success. I am passionate about helping students feel confident in what theyre learning. My goal is to find the right balance of work and enjoyment in their studies. I love to give students challenging work but I also love to encourage them by celebrating their triumphs along the way.

For piano beginners I use the Faber book series. I prefer these books because it gives a mixture of theory and technique that I think is essential to learn at an early stage. For violin beginners I prefer to use the Suzuki Method books. These books are great because they get the student playing quickly, while still introducing the foundations of basic theory for reading music. Beginning guitar is a little more flexible depending on the students goals and the style they would like to learn. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I studied dance at the age of 6. My mom bought a piano for herself to learn to play. I would go to the piano and try to make up songs that I could dance to, which then lead me to take piano lessons for 15 years. Committment, joy, and passion are the keys to learning and growing as a music student. I enjoy teaching all styles, as well having students learn to arrange and express their own style within the piece they are learning. Read More

I believe I am a friendly guy at heart, so I tend to be friendly with the students. There are times where I have to tell them, for example, "You haven't been practicing.". But I try my best to do that in love while encouraging them when I see even the smallest improvement. I feel as though the key is to play as much as possible. That can be hard to do when you feel like you don't know how to play. Read More

Hey there! So my name is Christian, I am a 23 year old musician from Anchorage, Alaska! Music has been life since I was 9 years old. I wanted to be in a band so badly that I decided to learn all the instruments I could as well as produce my own music. I have been playing shows in the Phoenix area since I was 14 including Warped Tour, The Marquee Theatre and so many more venues around the area. Read More

My approach to teaching is gentle and warm while maintaining high standards of excellence for both my instruction as well as my expectations of my students. When we both strive to do our best work each lesson, we have fun and learn new things which leads to more interest and pride on the student's part. There is nothing more exciting in teaching than seeing students progress and be proud of what they have done. Read More

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I grew up listening to my Uncle practicing the violin - he's a violin master now. I was going to learn violin as I admired his music very much. But, it was an hours drive to the nearest violin teacher. My Mom loved the piano and often listened to good piano music. Furthermore, we first had an organ and later a piano for her to play on. I rather liked it, so I chose to take piano lessons. In fact, she had been teaching me bits and pieces for several years when I began the lessons. All told, I was about a year into learning.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
The first musical accomplishment I was very proud of, was the day I was first able to make the music SING, instead of just pushing keys. If a student keeps practicing, one day, it just happens!
However, most of the ones I'm proud of involve my students. There's your everyday students who do a good basic job and steadily learn, the ones who are exceptional and push themselves and then earn scholarships, grants and entrances to great schools and difficult programs because of what they have learned to do. And, then there are the special ones with disabilities.
I enjoy working with all my students. I was the only teacher in the area for many, many years that would take students with moderate to severe disabilities. My favorite 2 stories are the ones about the adult with childhood Polio and the child with Williams Syndrome. The adult with Polio after effects had no use of her left hand and very limited use of her right hand. About 3 1/2 years later I lost her as a student. She had regained full use of both hands, though left was a bit weaker, had earned a major promotion at work and no longer had the time. Though, she still plays at home a lot. She worked very hard, and really, I just provided the road map, but WOW! Williamson Syndrome is quite rare and like Down's, except the life span isn't shortened, the facial features are regular and they are gold all over: eyes, hair and skin! They do have the delayed physical coordination and mental delay as well. When my student started, she was nearly 5, but mentally she was about 2 maybe 2 1/2. She came to me from the original studies on Music & Brain Development at UC Irvine. The study was to be 6 months. She was doing so well they ended up extending her study to about 14 months as I recall. We even had her getting up early to do aerobics with Grandma before school to work on physical coordination and her sense of steady beat and tempo! She did better than any other child in the study and at he end she was 6 years old was pretty much behaving like a 6 year old and could play many simple songs. I was so proud of her. Admittedly, the family did most of the work and again, I just provided a road map, but again, WOW!
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I had a family that inspired me. Everyone on my Mom's side sang and played at least a little piano and if it was a little piano, it was because they specialized in another instrument. All my cousins and I were in the children's choir when we got old enough. Everyone tends to sing or hum if they are happy. My Mom regularly played good quality music with a lot of variety at home. Some of my earliest memories are being danced around in her arms to music and even when I got older we still did a lot of dancing around to music - by the way, dancing is a great way to learn to feel the beat and Feel the music through your body - it leads to a great and easy way to develop expression in your music. I rarely have to teach keeping a steady beat to those who dance. We often went to see things that had music in them. Even my Dad, who was not musical, still loved music. He would often listen to music at night after work, instead of watching TV. He alternated between conducting the music with a smile on his face and trying to name all the instruments he heard. The big difference between my parents is that my Mom was raised with music as just a part of life and my Dad wasn't. Make music a part of your and your children's lives. We are surrounded by music all the time, but ignore it. Take time to stop and listen and appreciate the Music!
