Instruments: Piano
For the begining for those students that they don't know music i teach them the basic, for example i start with the rhythm and after the fundamentals. They are going to learn how to read simple notes. Once they have a grasp of the fundamentals they are ready to be introduce into the piano. For the students that already know the concept and how to play the instrument, I ask where they are and I continue to provide them more so they can continue in there progress. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Bass Guitar Double Bass
For beginners I like to start with using John W. Schaum's Music book as well as helping them to learn basic music theory in order to be able to keep time and know how to read music. I help them to know their music scales so that they know them by heart when playing music. I also inspire my students to join recitals in school as well as encourage them to practice daily as well as play with others. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin
The modern, up to date PIANO books that I use introduce ALL the styles including classical, pop, jazz, blues, boogie and ragtime.These books also cover music theory, technique and provide performance pieces. All my school-age students like to play the MUSIC MOUNTAIN game, where they climb up with weekly points for practicing and learning songs by memory. We keep track with a special practice record book. Prizes occur every 100 points. Read More
Instruments: Piano Synthesizer Accordion Keyboard
My teaching experience dates back to my college days, as I began teaching private lessons part time 23 years ago, and have been consistently teaching students in my home studio for the last 20+ years. Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I like to emphasize for younger students, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument. I've also found that a combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy the piano and motivate them to practice and continue to learn. Read More

I have been playing and performing professionally most of my adult life. I am now the music director at St Clement Catholic Church in Plant City Florida. Hope to see you soon. I am looking forward to meeting with you and your family so we can discuss my teaching and professional skills. Read More

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
The great Suzuki taught through the mother-tongue method. He believed that learning music was similar to learning a language. My view aligns with his philosophy. I believe that students are ready to start learning music as soon as they are ready to begin learning how to speak. The process of learning music is very similar to the process of learning language: trial and error is essential, and mapping the meaning of musical tones is a lot like learning to map the meaning of words.
When will I start to see results?
Results are not about speed. The first thing to understand about music is that almost all of the difficulties are due to not understanding something. If you start from the standpoint that music should be easy, then the only task is learning how to make it easy. In this way, music is a series of exercises in self-exploration.
I believe that results can be achieved every time you pick up your instrument. If you try to make it better each time you play, you are learning something. On the other hand, it can take more than a lifetime to master. It ultimately depends upon your goals and your level of determination.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I was very lucky to have good teachers growing up. I started playing the violin before the first grade. My elementary school had a Suzuki program, so I learned how to play by ear for the first four or five years of my training. My elementary school teacher was my first major inspiration because he showed us how good it felt to achieve something.
My private teachers, especially my theory teachers, really solidified my interest in music. In particular, my violin teacher in high school played with a major symphony orchestra, and he showed me what the highest level of musicianship looked like.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practicing effectively is a very subjective experience, but I have a few words of advice. The most important aspect of practicing is realizing that almost every musical issue happens above the shoulders, not below them. In other words, you should approach practicing from the perspective that all difficulties are due to a lack of understanding and not a lack of physical skill. If you start from the assumption that everything should be easy and it is only a matter of figuring out how to make it easy, it is a lot more effective than starting from the standpoint that it should be hard.
