I'm very passionate about being honest and straightforward with my students. I'm very prone to telling my students not just what I do but why I do it, as I believe it's important to develop holistic thinking. I also think it's important to get students curious about as much related to the art form as possible. So, I include extra information about history, theory, other aspects of the canon, etc. Read More

I have been in the music business for some time. I have produced many recordings and I ran a club for 12 years. I learned so much about patience during these years. I have toured extensively and taught classes in music all over Europe and the USA. I enjoy the process of conveying basic fundamentals to inspire any student to learn something about music by applying themselves. I have a studio with the best samples on the market, which I use for Film composing. Read More

I have been teaching for the past 17 years.  I enjoy the challenge of meeting each student's needs and creating an individual teaching plan to help students achieve their goals. I have had the opportunity to work with preschool through undergraduate students. My experience as a high school chorus teacher, Teaching Artist with the Washington National Opera, guest vocalist for the Ghanian ambassador, and part-time professor have bolster my ambition to bring music to students "where they are".

For beginners, I firmly believe in establishing strong fundamentals. However, you can't spell fundamentals with out "fun"! So, even while building fundamentals, music lessons should be fun and geared toward what the student wants out of all of this. Whether that's learning a specific song, style, cool musically visual trick, or just jamming, I'm here for it all! Musical journeys are specific to the individual and therefore there is no one path that all students must follow. Read More

All of my students, depending on age, go through my curriculum which not only focuses on solo repertoire but learning how to be an essential part of any ensemble. I make sure I plan individual lessons and create overall schemes of work for my pupils so they can develop knowledge of materials and repertoire for them at different stages of their musical development. I extend my own musical experience by becoming familiar with the music my pupils listen to and music that is assigned from their primary music instructor, as well as have them become familiar with other musical styles and by developing improvisation and vocal skills.
