As a teacher,I teach based on a students needs. Teaching methods are developed according to the weak areas in where a student needs to improve. Once i observed the problem a method is then developed. I can used methods from teaching books or create my own method. All methods are not the same for individual students. Observation is the key to a successful method. Read More
Instruments: Piano Keyboard
I have over 10 years of teaching experience with the last 7 years being full time. I started playing piano when I was 5 so I have over 22 years of playing experience. The number one thing I stress about learning to play the piano (except practice of course!) is that you need to be having fun at all times. Music is supposed to be fun so it’s my job to make sure my students are enjoying each lesson and each time they sit down at their piano. Read More

Instruments: Piano Violin Music
While I have performed with numerous groups, I found myself falling more in love with teaching than performing. Playing the violin has brought me such joy, offered me so many opportunities, and given me so many friends that I want to share this gift with everyone. I believe that everyone can benefit from learning an instrument and I strive to give the best instruction and form the best environment possible. Read More

I currently play drums for the hit Broadway musical (non-union version) of Rock of Ages and when I'm not on the road; I'm teaching. I’m an avid columnist for Modern Drummer Magazine and I sing/play guitar for one of Chicago's best Nirvana tributes called Smells Like Nirvana. I studied at Berklee College of Music and I have a huge passion for teaching. I offer the option for students to get their lessons recorded via audio/video so they have a reference to stay on task for their next lesson. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I also like to incorporate improvisation into my teaching method, from very simple improvisational patterns for beginners to jazz improvisation for advanced students. I think teaching beginners that music does not always come off of a page is an important concept and can free them up to be their most creative selves, to feel connected to the music, and to be able to focus on creating a relaxed and natural technique.

The most effective teachers that I have had were teachers who recognized these important factors in the student-teacher relationship- that the best education experiences occur when both the student and the teacher embark on a positively-reinforced exploration together as opposed to the teacher solely dictating negatively to the student. It's with this spirit that I intend to conduct every lesson that I teach, because it is also through making the relationship one of mutual exploration and nurturing that I will give my past experiences of joy to my students.

Instruments: Violin Viola
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I chose my primary instrument because I have a deep passion and love for it. Playing this instrument brings me immense joy and fulfillment, and I believe that it's essential for a music instructor to have a strong connection with their instrument.
By choosing this instrument as my primary focus, I've been able to dedicate countless hours to perfecting my skills and understanding its nuances. This expertise allows me to share my knowledge and enthusiasm with your child effectively. I believe that when a teacher is genuinely passionate about their instrument, it can inspire and motivate students to develop their own love for music.
Moreover, my choice of instrument aligns with my teaching philosophy and expertise, ensuring that I can provide your child with the best possible learning experience. I'm excited to share my knowledge and help your child embark on their musical journey with the same passion and dedication that I have for my primary instrument.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
As a Music Instructor specializing in classical Violin and Viola, I've had the privilege of working with many talented students and contributing to the world of classical music. While all my experiences have been rewarding in their own ways, there are a few accomplishments that I'm particularly proud of:
1. Highest Average Score at Soochow University: During my tenure as a Professor of Viola at Soochow University, I achieved the highest average score for all students in the university's history, with a remarkable score of 90 out of 100 points. This demonstrates my commitment to excellence in teaching and the success of my students.
2. Producing Top-Scoring Students: I'm especially proud of producing the highest-scoring individual student in the university's history, with a score of 95 out of 100 points. Additionally, one of my viola students secured a top position at the Concerto Competition, earning a 3rd place prize. These achievements reflect the dedication I put into nurturing the talents of my students.
3. Career Advancement for Students: My role in helping 96% of my students gain professional employment, and their continued success in their careers, is a testament to the impact of my teaching. It brings me immense satisfaction to see my students flourish in their musical journeys.
4. Leadership in Youth Music Education: During my time as a Music Instructor and Orchestra Assistant at the Manhattan International Music Festival, I played a crucial role in enhancing young musicians' proficiency and fostering a sense of unity among them. I organized masterclasses and provided a platform for students to showcase their talents, leading to outstanding performances.
These accomplishments are a testament to my dedication to music education and my ability to inspire and nurture young talents. I'm deeply proud of the progress my students have made and the contributions I've made to the classical music community.
