Instruments: Piano Music Keyboard
I started teaching piano lessons in Tokyo in 2008. I have been teaching at Joe's Academy of Music in Queens since 2017. I have found that a combination of classical, jazz and popular styles of music to be most effective with my students. I also stress scales, technique, sight-reading and theory. I also encourage my students to bring in music that they are interested in. I have taught all levels from beginning to advanced and my students have ranged in age from 4 to 70 years old. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
Assessment is the task during the first lesson. I must determine the student's voice type, and what style of music the student would like to pursue. If a boy's voice hasn't yet changed, I'll assess whether he is an alto or soprano. I'm a keen believer in teaching one to sightread and encouraging one to improvise with his/her instrument! For sightreading I shall introduce The Trinity College, Sound at Sight. Read More
Instruments: Piano
Teaching recorder at age 15 (seriously...) I have been teaching here in the NYC area since the mid ninties. When I was a student at MSM the head of tutoring noticed me helping students and signed me up with a tutoring service that led to a position in a few schools and finally put me in the faculty of MSM pre colloege division. In addition I have between 20 to 30 private students every year. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
I think voice especially has always been viewed as a bit of a mystery... you can't see or touch your voice as you sing, unlike playing instruments, so there's a certain amount of imagination that has to be involved. I do my best to straddle making singing as tangible as I can, and approach things somewhat scientifically ("This muscle is used in this way," etc.) while also inspiring visualization ("Send your sound out into the distance," etc.) I also really think it's important for musicians to be diverse, so not only will we learn chord and strumming patterns on a guitar, we'll also learn how to read simple lead lines of solos, etc. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I have taught children and adults. I especially delight in helping beginners discover the beauties of music, the keyboard instruments and their classical repertoire, and the basics of music notation. Some of my students have been music majors who went on to become music professionals. Others have been non majors who wanted to learn music in order to expand their cultural horizons, experience the discipline and pleasures of performing an instrument and to learn to perform the pieces they always wanted to play.

Instruments: Piano Synthesizer Keyboard
Half musician and half computer programmer, I graduated from Southern Connecticut State University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music Theory and Composition. Since then I have been performing original electronic music in the greater NYC/Fairfield area. I've completed a CELTA certificate from Cambridge University and have adapted their teaching methods to that of the language of music. I develop my own software, synthesizers, and tools to assist me in my musical journey, and hopefully yours. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Humming is the most effective way to warm up voice at any places before starting a regular vocalization. As I mentioned about humming earlier, the sound is the compression of the air. It is not necessary to vocalize too long before singing songs and arias. During singing songs and arias, I help the uneasy notes and phrases of music by the each student's problems and let them feel the same sensation when they resolved the problems in singing. Practicing is up to the individual's situations and I would advise them to be consistent with a break not to overuse the fragile human instruments even though who mastered the solid vocal techniques.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I have had a few good teachers who recognized my innate musical talent when I was very shy and insecure in my early ages and during my high school days. At first, I was very much encouraged by my very first piano teacher who believed in my hidden musical gift until junior high school and I gave up my dream to pursue a career as a concert pianist. I wanted to be a professional singer since my childhood, but I was too shy and insecure to express my feeling and dreams of becoming a singer even though I always was selected to sing a solo at school and at churches. When I had to decide to go to music college, in spite of my family's pressure for me to go to the medical school, I was persistent to take voice lessons with my very first voice teacher/opera singer for only three months which was an incredible challenge and miracle for me to be accepted to the prestigious Music College at Ewha Woman's University in Seoul, Korea. My first voice teacher predicted the speedy development of my singing techniques and a strong voice in such a short period, as a miracle to many other peers at that time. Another voice teacher in New York, after Juilliard, the late Louise Casellotti who gave me a life-long gift for solid technique how to rejuvenate my voice with her strong trust in my potentials as a true artist and as a youthful and healthy singer till the end. As a performer and voice teacher, I am so blessed to hand it down to my students what I have learned all the vocal training by these rarely perfect teachers in my life.
When will I start to see results?
It depends on your child's steady practicing and taking lessons regularly with enthusiasm and commitment in music.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
The right timing depends on your family resources. If your child has a great deal of love and desire for music to perform with joy, you may ask your child whether he/she is willing to meet a music teacher for a trial lesson first. The best way to decide if your child is ready for formal music lessons is simply to watch how he/she reacts to music and their interest level in any instruments or singing. Also, to learn about how often they will be in musical activities. If your child is too young to start lessons, let him/her play any musical toys to feel the sound of beauty gradually. if your child is obsessed with the musical toys, then hiring a private tutor to find out quickly how interested your child in music based on the reaction to practice and lesson time as well.
