Instruments: Piano
I have been playing the piano for about 30 years. I have 10 years of teaching experience with a proven track record of retaining students. I have taught a wide variety of students of all ages, skill-levels and backgrounds. I have been working for Musika for 10 years. In addition, I have experience teaching at several music studios and an after-school program focussed on enriching the lives of under-priviledged children through musical performance. Read More
Instruments: Piano Cello Bass Guitar Recorder Double Bass Keyboard
As part of my graduate and undergraduate studies I regularly taught both locally and abroad to students of all ages, skill levels, and backgrounds. I have also maintained a steady private studio, teaching individual lessons to students for over five years. My teaching style has a strong emphasis on developing and maintaining engagement and excitement with the subject. I believe that a positive attitude is essential to a student’s growth and it is my responsibility as a teacher to develop that attitude. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I am just starting to teach in person but throughout the pandemic I taught beginner theory such as how to count, the notes on the piano, and understanding rhythm. I also taught many of my parents friends kids whatever songs they were interested in on the piano so they found love for the instrument first. I love teaching because seeing the student come to class with something they specifically heard and want to learn is very rewarding. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Violin Fiddle
I began teaching beginner piano when I was in middle school and caught the teaching bug! (My dad was a high school choir teacher for thirty-five years, so I must have caught it from him.) Now I teach violin/fiddle, voice and piano. I believe that learning classical music and sight reading are both fundamentals to begin learning any instrument. However, I love to teach other styles as well! I would love to work with budding musical theater performers who want to work on musicianship skills and/or learn piano/violin. Read More
Instruments: Piano Cello Drums Orchestral Percussion
My approach to teaching is completely different for each and every student. First and foremost, I first try to understand the student's pace and his/her previous knowledge in the respective instrument. That way, I can assign personalized practice routines to get them started. From there, I start to set goals, push their potential, and leap towards challenges that pushes the student's passion and curiosity. Ultimately, the goals I set for myself as a teacher is to provide the student with the ability to practice smart, diligently, and push their own creative minds into the music. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Ukulele Recorder Music Keyboard
I have been teaching since before I even went to college. My teaching experience, professionally, began in 2018. In 2019, I began college at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette for vocal music. After that, I went on to teach more voice lessons, and added on piano, ukulele, guitar, and even theatre. Currently, I am an elementary music teacher in the Bronx and East Harlem. Outside of teaching, I love to perform. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Drums Recorder Keyboard
Because every student has his/her own learning style, my lessons cater to those styles. I figure out a student's strengths and weaknesses. I acknowledge the accomplishments caused by the strengths while I focus on developing the weaknesses. For example, if a student excels melodically but has trouble maintaining accurate rhythm, I will engage the student in listening to and playing many interesting melodies that require him/her to pay close attention to counting the rhythms in order to master playing the melodies.

Instruments: Piano Voice
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
My favorite genre, indefinitely, would be opera. Opera is a visual and audible spectacle and the music written for these grand pieces of music are filled to the brim with interesting characters, challenging yet rewarding runs and melismas, beautiful sounds and most importantly (for me as a tenor, that is...) high notes at every corner with some of them being at the highlight or most stunning moment of the entire piece/possibly the entire opera.
It's beautiful music and to sing it brings me joy.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I believe I would be pursuing a career in either art or film if I had not pursued a career as a music teacher. Film because I'm a lover of editing and am fascinating with the many techniques that can bring a film to life. Art because the visual spectacles people can come up with is fascinating to me and to make a career bringing that to life would be outstanding.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
That is a tricky question...
I believe my dream piece to perform would be either Una Furtiva Lagrima from Donizetti's "L'elisir d'amore", Du Bist Meine Sonne from Franz Lehar's "Giuditta", Che Gelida Manina from Puccini's "La Boheme" or "Salut! Demeure Chaste et Pure" from Gounod's Faust.
I wish to sing ALL of these because of how beautiful the pieces are and to sing them on a professional stage would mean the world to me, as I would be sharing this beautiful music with others.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have a Bachelor's in Music Education. I chose to pursue and achieve this degree because I am in love with music and what it can do physically, mentally, psychologically and emotionally for people of any age. I also have been fascinating since I was a wee lad with being a teacher and teaching something I love dearly, that being music, seemed like the best choice!
I am also pursuing, currently at this moment, a Master's in Opera as opera is my definitive genre of music which I love to sing.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Yes. My biggest inspiration when it came to the field of music was Dr. Edward Martinez of Gardiners Elementary School. I still find him to have been one of the most amazing, talented and knowledgable music teachers I will ever come to know both in my career as an acting singer and teacher. He inspired me to pursue Music Education not only through his love of the field but also his ability to convey that anything and everything is possible if you put your mind to it. He truly was an amazing man.
