Instruments: Piano
Knowing how to teach different students is vital to the success of students. Learning about the student as a person is extremely important because it helps me understand how I can relay message to them. Teaching is all about catering to the student so that what you are trying to explain comes across as accurate and coherently as possible. Each lesson will revolve around learning something new within a short time span and also very small, so their brain can digest the knowledge, periodically increasing the workload and information.

I work to determine how best you learn, and then we move in your direction. I am left-handed and have learned to accommodate as well as individuate. My idea about life is that anything a person wants to learn CAN be taught. What is required? A deep desire and patience. But there is nothing as exciting as playing an instrument! Or learning to sing, and feeling the power that comes when you express yourself. Read More
Instruments: Piano Trumpet
I'm originally from California and graduated from Marin School of the Arts, a well-known performing arts high school. I recently graduated from Berklee College of Music with a degree in Trumpet Performance and Music Production. Getting to travel and perform live for large audiences has been some of my most exciting and fulfilling experiences, as well as getting to perform in venues that my heroes have played in. Venues like The SF Jazz Center, The Royale Boston, The Road Runner Boston and Stone Pony NJ, are all venues that have been a center of great music over the years that I've had the pleasure of performing at.

For younger, beginning students I start with the basic fundamentals of music while keeping it interesting with games or quick melodic exercises that can be easily grasped. Too much music theory can be overwhelming and boring to a new student so I focus on the fun side of music first. For the more experienced or older student, I typically craft the lessons based on their goals, while providing concrete ways in which they can achieve them with hard work and practice. Read More

I believe that motivation begins with excitement and there is no better way to help a student stick to a practice routine than teaching him or her to play their favorite songs. Of course, a knowledge of music theory is very important, but I always make sure that we don't get bogged down in minutia, and that each student is allowed to proceed at his or her own pace. A practical and usable knowledge of music's fundamentals is employed to get results and keep the student motivated and actively learning. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I have been teaching voice, songwriting, and piano since I began college in 2013. I have taught both younger and older students alike, and I tailor my lessons to their needs and wants. I find that every student is unique in their journey with music and I do my very best to help them achieve attainable goals that we have set-up together, taking into account their age and their musical interests.

Instruments: Piano Drums Orchestral Percussion Conga
I set fun goals and I challenge each student every step of the way to help them reach them. I point out their strengths yet I keep a close eye on their weaknesses and work with them to eliminate any all bad habits in playing instruments. After a few weeks I quiz them and reward them for overcoming any obstacles. I really like to have my students play in front of friends and family after around 3 months of studying. Read More

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I love the guitar. I love plugging an electric guitar in to an amp with distortion and let it rip. It's creative, scientific, full of emotion, full of discipline, full of fun, and something that I can connect with others by doing. It's quite possibly my favorite thing in the world.
I love the drums for the same reason. It's great to pound on them for stress release, the fills are and endless supply of creative options, and also very mathematical at the same time.
I love the clarinet because it is beautiful. Both to look at and the sound. You can play soft, pretty pieces. You can also play loud, intense pieces.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I never thought I could write and record my own album. Now I have three and working on a fourth. Without going to school and taking lessons I would have never had the confidence to do it on my own. Now I'm completely confident, but still incredibly eager to continue to learn.
I love teaching music to all ages. It gives me so much pure joy to see the smiles on student's faces when they learn a song or a cool drum beat. It's truly my calling in to life to be a musicians and help others realized that they can be musicians too.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Not any specific rewards, but some great success stories. I had one student who was 14 years old and had been getting in to lots of trouble at school. All he seemed to be interested in, other than getting in to trouble, was music. Therefore his parents enrolled him at the music school I taught at. Luckily enough, he was paired with me to learn guitar. His face lit up with excitement when I told him we could learn songs from his favorite band, Blink-182. Over time his parents told me that his attitude started to improve and rather than getting in to trouble, he was staying at home to practice his guitar. It was the best news I've ever heard. Music truly can change a person.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Learning the song "Blackbird" by the Beatles was very challenging for me at the time. It uses a picking style that was completely new to me. I would practice phrases, get frustrated, but keep at it until I had it down.
Singing in front of an audience for the first time was very scary for me. I'm not the most accomplished singer, but I wanted to do it. Afterwords I thought to myself, "Hey that wasn't so bad". I then had the confidence to keep doing it, keep improving, and expanding what I can do musically.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I like Hal Leonard for guitar, Fast Track for drums, and Standard of Excellence for clarinet. However, I'm open to using additional/different materials depending on the student. I use the website Ultimate Guitar for tablature of songs on guitar. Tablature is an alternate way of reading music. Some guitar teachers don't like it because it is not actually reading music, but rather a chart showing where to put your fingers to play. However, I feel it can be a very useful tool for growing as a guitarist.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I like to practice in short intervals multiple times a day. Practicing a concept multiple times a day without overwhelming yourself with too much other material will really help you learn the technique quickly. I like to warm up by doing finger exercises or arm and leg stretches, sit a quiet room with no distractions, and really buckle down with the music in front of me. It can be boring to repeat the same thing over and over, but the more you do it the better you will become and be able to advance.
