In addition to the recording and performing experience listed above, I've been a full-time private lessons instructor since 2010. I've taught at countless local schools, but found that the freedom of teaching completely independently (or, at most, through a referral program like Musika) can't be beat. The more of my *own* students I have, the more I can focus on each one, and the more time I have to plan out their progress. Read More
Instruments: Piano Keyboard
I almost always use Alfred's Basic Piano Library for kids n adults, the same series for young beginners for younger kids. Time to time i use piano Adventure series by Faber n Faber. I focus on flash cards n sight reading books besides the main lesson book since a lot of students do not read well n try to memorize their pieces by ear. I believe strongly that students can't go so far without being able to read properly. Read More

I prefer students come to me with contemporary songs they have interest in learning because it is so much easier to retain and develop a love for music when it's a song YOU want to learn. If a student doesn't have a song they want to learn at first, that's perfectly fine! I have a list of over 900 contemporary pop, rock, jazz, dance, musical theatre and video game songs that I am very familiar with for us to work on together. Read More

I'm a patient, energetic, understanding, highly-motivated teacher who loves training people to accomplish their musical goals. I teach from the experience of a songwriter and performer, someone who started off as an ear-based, self-taught guitarist and has worked his way up to to a BA in Composition, recorded and released music for three Seattle rock bands, and performs regularly. This diverse background makes me relatiable to students with all different learning styles, interests, and skill sets. Read More

I have been a professional teacher and performer for ten years, touring nationally with funk, soul, and latin bands. The diversity of my experience as a performer has directly impacted my view on teaching. Excitement about practicing music comes directly from passion for music in general, and a key philosophy to my teaching method is to not only instill correct practices and technique, but to attempt to foster a life-long desire for musical exploration in my students.

Every student learns at their own pace, and in their own way. Discovering what type of learner your student is (kinesthetic, auditive, visual), is essential in providing examples and assignments for the student to work on. I do believe that with encouragement and patience, anyone can learn the noble art that is the language of music, you just have to find and fuel the student's interests, make that flame grow into a passion, and then lead with the example, 99% of the time the student will follow, the other 1% of the time you just need to get creative :) Read More

I began teaching in high school, working with elementary and middle school students. Through this experience, I discovered my passion for helping others discover music. In my first full-time teaching position, I was able to to lead the Greenland (AR) High School band to the ASBOA Sweepstakes Award, the highest honor for a school band in that state. Additionally, many of my students were selected to honor bands and several received college scholarships. Read More

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
1) Start with known material to warm up and start thinking musically. Learned etudes are good for this.
2) Next do technical studies such as scales, arpeggios, use of ornaments
3) Play through new material that is going to be worked on
4) Work on the current focus project. Making sure that there are accurate pitches, correct timing, correct fingering, rhythmic accuracy and any difficult passages are given the eleven minute rule.
5) Do the work for a piece that you are going to memorize.
6) Conclude by reviewing material that has already been learned and/or memorized.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I was not able to complete my bachelors degree which was a performance degree in church music. I grew up singing in choirs and when I decided to be a full-time professional musician I started playing for church services.
From the time I started playing piano at age six playing for church was something I aspired towards. Sacred and spiritual music has always been part of my musical life and so do that professionally seemed appropriate.
Even though I did not complete my degree I have played in churches since 1987 and have used, besides piano, organ, guitar, mandolin bass and hand drums.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
There are many pieces in a many genres that I would like to perform. If I needed to choose one piece I think that I would choose W. A. Mozart’s piano concerto No. 22 in Eb (K. 482). This particular concerto is iconic and to be able to perform it with an orchestra would be a beautiful thing.
My second choice would be to play Mauro Giuliani’s Sonata in C Major, Opus 15. I have been working on this piece for a couple of years and hope to soon start memorizing it so that I can perform it on a concert stage.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Before I became a full time musician I worked in orchards, nurseries and greenhouses and got an associates degree in horticulture. I have also worked as a woodwind repair technician. At various times I have worked in carpentry, as a mechanic, a bus driver, a snow plow operator and I have worked in retail stores for books and music.
None of the jobs listed above have had the importance that being a musician does. So, even though I could do many different things I cannot imagine being anything but a musician as long as I have a choice.
