Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin Bass Guitar Double Bass Classical Guitar

My teaching experience dates back to my college days ,as I began teaching in professional music school full time 28 years ago and have been consistently teaching students in my home for the last 15 years. Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key point .I like to emphasize for younger students ,as it tends to help student progress and gain passion for the instrument. I've also found that combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy the instrument and motivate them to practice and continue to learn. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice Music Keyboard

For beginning students who are children, I typically start with Music Tree and Basien beginning piano. Once the student has progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals, I will begin to introduce solo repertoire appropriate for their first recital performance. For adults, I try to find out what the student is interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and enjoyable, no matter their ability level. Read More

Instruments: Piano

Music is truly a wonderful thing in our world and it truly enhances our lives in many different ways. I believe that everyone can benefit deeply from it one way on another. In my teaching, I tailor the lessons according to each student's unique sensitivities and musical intuitions, always striving towards a balance between discipline and creativity. I always enjoy sharing my love and enthusiasm for music with others and I strongly feel that learning music at any level should be a fun, creative and enjoyable process. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice Drums

The most important part of a music instructors' job is to instill the principle that music is FUN! I hate when I hear people say that they studied piano when they were young, but their instructor made them hate it, for one reason or another. Just as importantly, I want to show that while anyone can learn to become a great musician, it doesn't come without the work. I feel that music study can be a great way to impart good habits of setting goals, and building and developing yourself to be something greater. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Bass Guitar Ukulele Music Keyboard Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

Getting to know the goals, musical tastes, and learning style of each of my students is the first step in creating a productive student/teacher relationship. I try to create lessons that blend my student's personal goals and interests with a strong foundation and understanding of the language of music. I want my students to have the knowledge and tools to discover all the possibilities that music has to offer. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin Cello Viola Drums Bass Guitar

As a multi-instrumentalists, I use a cross disciplinary approach even when a student is only learning one instrument. I do make use of method books for beginners, and the specific book depends upon the instrument, but I have my own methods and materials which I utilize in my lessons. Building a repertoire is encouraged, and I use the material to assist in instructing in theory and musical communication. My students are taught to be self-sufficient, by way of practice, study, and cultivating an "ear." Read More

Learning music is hard work, but lessons shouldnt be a miserable experience, either. A talented teacher will understand how to make music lessons fun and enjoyable, even with the hard work. The more you enjoy your lessons, the more motivated youll be to prepare for them and to do well. Fun can come in many forms. I will make lessons fun with students personality and enthusiastic approach to music, alone. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Christine G

Instruments: Piano Voice Keyboard

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
"You reap what you sow." If you want to be GREAT, you must be willing to WORK HARD. As your teacher I will push you to practice and become the BEST musician you can possible be. Practice N Enjoy :)

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If your child shows an interest in music, by singing or dancing whenever a song is played on the radio. Then your child is ready for music lessons. Music lessons are for anyone who LOVES music.

When will I start to see results?
Every student progresses differently, depending on your commitment and study habits. However, every student will learn the fundamentals of music. Which include (but are not limited to) ear training, harmony, music theory and technique. As an experience music instructor, I never give empty promises to students no matter what level. However, if you decide to take music lessons with me, all students will learn the fundamental of music and once a student is able to develop the above mentioned skills, you will see results very quickly.

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My inspiration came from within, I didn't grow up with a musical family, but my love for music came when I realized it was a form of self expression. I started studying arts education at a very young age and was blessed to have parents that supported my love of music. I worked with wonderful teachers and artists who all played a role in shaping my artistic life. Therefore, I can not name just one teacher who inspired me to go into music, because it was a village of people who inspired me to go into music. Sometimes you don't always need someone to "inspire" you, the inspiration is sometime already there!

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
As mentioned before, I was blessed with the gift of a voice, therefore, my instrument chose me. Once I realized how natural singing was, I started studying voice right away. I took my music studies very serious; as a teenager I spent my Saturdays from 9am-5pm studying music. I eventually started taking piano lessons to support my vocal career. Yet, I am so grateful that I didn't have to "choose" an instrument, music was my calling and I am so happy this is what I get to do every day. Forever grateful :)

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am most proud of my music business accomplishments, although I have travel the world as a singer. There is no greater joy than sharing and teaching my God given talent. This is my most proudest moment, when I see a child light up once he or she understands a musical concept. I have so many musical accomplishment, yet, teaching will always be near and dear to my heart. I co-founded a mobile music company helping underserved children afford music lessons. I am so passionate about music, I wish I could share my love of music with the whole world.

Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Many of my students are professional artists in their own right. However, one particular student who studied under me for a very long time, went on to study music and earned a BA in vocal performance as well as a Master's degree in Music. This student is currently teaching private students and performing at professional venues throughout New York City. I have another student who performs globally as a recording artist. He started taking lessons with me when he was only eight years old. So many of my students have professional careers in music.

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Confidence, is the hardest part of singing. Many people are naturally talented but many lack the confidence to go forward and pursue their musical goals. My job as a music teacher/coach will be to help each student build up their confidence to learn all the fundamentals of music. Once you have overcome the fear of singing or performing then you can begin to master the art of learning music. I believe fear is the hardest thing when it comes to music, because most people are more concern about "how they sound."

Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I use several teaching method books, for example Alfred, Hal Leonard, etc. However, I have a customized music curricula designed for all my students. I believe students learn in different ways, therefore, one method book would not work for my teaching style. All students have specific needs and I have created a course that works best for all music students.

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A normal practice session will consist of physical stretching, breathing exercises, several vocal warm ups and repertoire building.

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I could not see myself doing anything else other than music. I love my job and love sharing the gift of music, it's my calling :)
