My teaching experience began as a college student.

After that I moved to Los Angeles and taught for 14 years in that capacity with the South Whittier Schools.

Instruments: Piano Violin

I introduce scales right away and each student usually has a technique book. I also incorporate games into lessons for young students to keep it fun. As students advance I introduce sheet music and music they like. For adults, there are a couple of chord method books by Alfred and Faber available and I use those unless they request something specific to work on. I may also write some of my own music, especially for learning note reading. Read More
