Instruments: Piano Guitar Electric Guitar Classical Guitar
I first started teaching kids privately about 4 years ago in their home and I started off with just basic stuff like note reading and pop music but as time passed by I came up with a teaching method that I am pretty confident in. I also worked at a tutoring center teaching guitar and piano to the kids focusing on more rock styles of playing. So my students were learning music from their favorite bands and what they wanted to learn. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin
My first contact with music was during my early childhood, when I took piano, guitar and violin lessons. Growing up, I was always active playing with several youth orchestras and various ensembles, ranging from classical to popular and folk music. I studied piano and composition at the California State University, Sacramento, where I had the opportunity to study with world class musicians and be part of cutting edge orchestras and choirs; during my college years I went on several tours with a choir, performing in venues such as Carnegie Hall, N.Y I currently perform as pianist and accompanist with Opera singers from the area, and also compose upon comissions.

Instruments: Piano
I'm a pianist, I've been playing playing the piano since I was 10 years old, currently 25 years old. A major highlight in my musical education was attending the high school for performing and visual arts in Houston Texas where I studied under Mr. Morales who shares my last name. I've performed with various chamber groups but I have spent my time mostly doing solo work. I consider myself primarily as a classical musician though I do enjoy various genres of music like jazz, and blues. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
I fell in love with music at a very young age, and ever since have had an unquenchable thirst for knowledge. I graduated from Manfield university with a bachelors in Music Education and teach many students in my off time. I am also a global recording artist, signed with Nashville Indie Records. I love teaching music. Its the best thing in the world to share my passion with an eager student... Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone Drums
Whether beginner or a bit more advanced, I have always liked to return to the basic foundational knowledge and techniques that must be understood well in order to advance and have a good sound and a good technique. For beginners in piano, I like to find books that the individual feels comfortable with and that they completely understand what they are getting themselves into. Every person is different. For snare drum, I like to use a book called stick control which helps students develop mastery in the way they play from precision to striking the snare drum correctly and the way they overall develop their style of playing.

Instruments: Piano
I believe that if one wants to become a piano virtuoso and master the classical piano, one must take the time to understand the joy and beauty of Classical Music in order to be able to transmit that beauty. I believe in acknowledging accomplishments, taking the time to practice and I also believe in challenging students to become better. Finding what composers inspires the students is very important because this makes them eager to learn. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I encourage progress over awards. It is vital that the singer be able to rely on their fundamental and progress at their own pace to be able to build healthy habits that will last for a lifetime of singing. I try to understand the goals and desires for all students to be able to help them reach that goal in a healthy progression. I am very challenging but singing if supposed to always be fun as well or there is no use in doing it every day. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
The two key factors to efficient practice are self discipline, and maintaining a practice environment with minimal distractions. Avoid having things around you such as television, loud noises, electronics, cell phones, etc.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Kids should be introduced to music as early as possible. The sooner they are introduced to it regularly, the sooner their brain starts to develop a sense of melody and pitch recognition. However, most students don’t have an attention span for music lesssons until around the age of 6-7. Lessons at an earlier age are definitely possible and can never hurt! The younger they start, the more “natural” most will be in the long run. For example, a person who learns rhythm at 5 years old will tend to have “naturally” better rhythm in the long run than that of somebody who doesn’t study it until they’re 13. But, the younger a child is, the less attention span they have for focused learning. In my personal experience, the best time to start kids in music lessons is after they have experienced one year in a social learning environment, such as kindergarten.
When will I start to see results?
This varies for all musicians. When it comes to seeing results, the number one thing to always remember is that the more you practice, the better you get and the quicker you get there. After all, practice makes perfect! If you stick to a strict practice schedule, for example 30 minutes of practice a day, you will begin seeing some results within the week. However, if you practice for thirty minutes twice a day, you'll see results even quicker! Another important thing to remember is that everybody learns at a different rate. Don't get discouraged if you're not seeing major results as quickly as you hope to. Music requires patience and work. If you have both of those, the results will happen!
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Every music teacher I have ever had inspired me to be a better musician. In my experience, nothing inspires a student more than a accomplished, enthusiastic instructor. My college instructors accompishments inspire me by showing that music is NOT a dead end road. It is an industry that 100% depends upon your work ethic. They have proven to me that you can make it anywhere you want in this industry, just depending on how much you’re willing to work for it! But most importantly, I’ve been inspired by their enthusiasm. Music is only a for the people who love every second of it. Being taught by somebody twice my age with an undying love for music has inspired me by knowing that as long as I love what I’m doing, I’ll never “work” a day or my life and I will always have the opportunity to spread the knowledge and love of music performance/education.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
For my entire life, my dad has been a guitar player. My earliest memories consist of listening to my dad play over Van Halen and Ozzy Osborne albums. When I was fourteen years old, I fell in love with the catchy riffs and melodic, shredding guitar solos by Synyster Gates (lead guitar player for Avenged Sevenfold) and that’s when I decided to pick up the guitar. I instantly fell in love with playing. Living under the same roof as an accomplished player like my dad and constantly working on learning new A7X and GNR songs, I never wanted to put it down. As a classical music nerd as well,the guitar is the most versatile instrument for my taste. I can play anything from Bach and Mozart to Van Halen and Guns N Roses all on the same instrument.
