I like to encourage my students using of examples of famous musicians that have always inspired me. Also,I believe that understanding and open communication between teacher and student is one of the keys to success! I think it is important for students ask me questions when they not really sure about something so that they go home being able to practice and understand better. I am a firm believer that practice will always make you better in pretty much any aspect of your life. Read More

Say a student likes to do RB. Introduce them to early blues. Say another student likes rock or metal. Introduce them to different classical methods that would make their tone sound even better. Musicians like Pat Benatar and Geoff Tate (Queensryche) started out classically trained, but it made a huge difference in their tone quality and vowel structuring. If a student wishes to learn from em, they will have a lot of fun, but they will also work hard. Read More

My musical background and experience started my early years. My family and I sang together, in church, in school, and in shows and special events. I began studying singing and song leading with my father at age six, piano with my mother at age seven, and guitar with my cousin at age thirteen. Through the years, my love of music—performing, learning, teaching, and sharing has never waned. My college studies focused on voice, church music, and conducting, and my graduate work emphasized choral music performance, music education, theory, and history. Read More

I am fairly new to teaching, but have taught 1-4 grade general music, 5-6 grade choir, and am currently a high school choir director. I have performed in many choral settings including professional choirs with full orchestras. I have made debuts in operas. I have also directed and assisted choirs in the learning process and in performance. To create a healthy vocal sound, I encourage vocalizing everyday for at least 30 minutes. Read More

My teaching experience began when I was a senior in high-school My sister had taught a few students in our neighborhood and asked me to take on her students when she moved away to attend college. I gladly did and discovered my love and passion for teaching. I taught consistently from 2003-2005 in Gilroy, until I attended Fresno Pacific University. I took a brief hiatus from teaching to focus on my own studies, but began teaching again in 2008-2011. Read More

Each student is different and I try to cater to each individual's learning style. For little ones and young musicians, I use a game board with all kinds of fun music activities and tasks to land on and play. I'm a fan of the Alfred instructional book series especially for beginners. Depending on what each student would like to achieve, I like to plan out a timeline to stay on track. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Focus is key. No matter the skill level of the student, or the difficulty of the subject matter, with the right amount of concentration, a dedicated student will be able to gain the self discipline to naturally push their abilities.
As a music teacher/ instructor I feel that it is important to give a certain amount of criticism to my students, while still remaining a positive figure of inspiration. I have had a wide range of music instructors in my past and the ones that I feel have been the most effective are the ones that remained positive and patient throughout my development.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If your child can independently express the want to learn a musical instrument on their own, then yes, I believe they are ready to start lessons. It may also be important to consider what goals you have in mind for your child though. I believe that learning a musical instrument, especially at a younger age, can beneficial for a child's growth and development, not only on an academic level, but on a social level as well. It can help improve memory, hand eye coordination, along with reading and comprehension skills.
When will I start to see results?
It varies from student to student depending on their age, development, and dedication. I have had beginner students, younger than 12 years old, able to play full compositions in their first 6 months. Regardless of that, it's important to be patient with every student. Everyone has their own way of learning and developing, and it's easy to get frustrated when you don't see physical results right away. It's my job to try and see where a student's current shortcomings are and help develop them in the right way.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My band/ music technology teacher back in high school was an inspiring figure to me. I feel fortunate to learn early in my life the value of hard work and dedication.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Before I took my first formal music lesson, I was always singing as a child. By the time I came to be a teenager playing bands across my hometown in New Jersey, music was already a driving passion, but I never saw myself as the "lead singer" type. The vocals initially became my primary instrument only because I never played in a band with anyone who had the ability to carry a tune like I did, let alone the confidence to deliver a quality performance. By naturally pursuing my love for music, my primary instrument came to me on its own.
