Instruments: Piano Voice Trumpet Acoustic Guitar
In the first lesson, I like to find out about my student's goals. Regular lessons usually consist of reviewing exercises, etudes, and songs that were assigned from the previous lesson and then making adjustments as needed. The goal is to develop technique as well as overall musicianship so that every piece of music is played or sung well and beautifully. I like to follow an outline of skills basic to the instrument and to making good music but often adjust lessons based on the student's ability and personal goals, Read More
Instruments: Piano Keyboard
Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music. Therefore. Its important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. We can set a goal in each lesson,which can give them the motivation to keep practicing. Each student has their own method to teach, but my job is to find out how to make them feel that practicing is not boring, they are willing to play. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar
I typically use Mel Bay's Modern Guitar Method for beginning guitarists and the Suzuki Method for beggining pianists. For students first learning music, I make sure to include solo pieces that the student is interested in and other custom written fundamental lessons in addition to these resources. Once they reach the point that they have a solid grasp of their instrument, we focus more closely on learning pieces and concepts that reflect musical situations in which the students sees themselves; be it playing solo, playing and singing, accompanying other instrumentalists or vocalists, or playing in an ensemble or band.

While still in college, I was a music tutor at North Star in Hadley For two years. I worked one-on-one with students in middle school on both voice and guitar. During my time there, I taught kids anything from different chords on the guitar, to breath support and passion in one's singing, to vocal improvisation and stage confidence. I've been away from teaching for a couple of years, but with the a Capella group, I have to accommodate for twelve different people and their learning styles. Read More

I started my private instruction practice during my high school years, where I would teach friends and students from my school. Through my musical career, I have taught students from age 6 to age 65. For me, each student presents a new challenge to find when it comes to what he/she wants to learn. Each student also has different approaches to learning. I do my best to cater to each student's needs so he/she can gain an excellent understanding of musical, theoretical, and technical concepts that will help them improve their playing. Read More
Instruments: Piano Trumpet
Hello, and thanks for reading about me! I recently graduated from New England Conservatory with a BM in Jazz Studies. Next Fall I will be pursuing a Master's degree from the Conservatory on a full merit based scholarship. I play lead, jazz, classical, and all sorts of pop music. You may find me around Boston playing in musicals, rock clubs, jazz big bands, a small restaurant with a trio, or even subbing in a local orchestra. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I come from Wuhan, China. When I was about five years old, my parents bought a piano, and I began my first piano lesson. I was not feeling comfortable or patient to practice, which was similar to many other kids. I once quit my piano playing for three years during junior school for not having enough time and energy to continue, however, I found the outburst of my enthusiasm towards music at the age of sixteen, and soon I picked my forgotten piano skills up.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
To practice effectively, don’t continue to run what you are good at! Pick apart what you struggle with and wok on that! That is the most effective way to use your time when practicing and will help you improve rapidly.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Music is very much in my family. My mother used to sing all the time when I was young and played flute and piano. My father played trumpet for the us Air Force. My brother and sister both love music and have played an instrument or sung. The most notable member of my family is my great uncle who is the lead saxophonist in room full of blues.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
If I weren’t a musician, I would be an aerospace engineer. I have always been interested in doing things I first thought impossible, and both music and engineering fit that criteria for me.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Originally I was 100% classical all the time. Very quickly, I found an intense love for musical theater and ever since then, I started to love jazz more and more. This is why I encourage students to expand their horizons. You never know what music you’ll like until you try!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If your child is beginning to show interest to start, then it may be time! The most important part of practicing, performing, and rehearsing is motivation. If your child is not interested in music or the arts, it may not be time yet. With this in mind, it is always worth it to bring a child in if they are remotely interested. Learning to sing or an instrument is truly one of the most rewarding parts of the musical process, and they will thank you for introducing them.
When will I start to see results?
After the first one or two lessons, I can guarantee improvement. With any other student I have taught, as long as we work on technique and continue on that path, improvement happens incredibly quickly.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I had 2 teachers that inspired me to go into music. One was my high school band teacher. He always believed his students could succeed or do better no matter their age. In college, when music began to become more of a chore, my choir instructor made it fun again. I learned so much in that course and it inspired me to help others in the same way.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I chose voice, piano, and saxophone to be equal primaries. Although I can not do all of them at the same time, singing is the instrument that makes me happy and feel accomplished. I chose saxophone partially because of my uncle (of room full of blues), and it was the "family legacy". Finally, I got dragged into Piano during college. It is required that all music majors of any capacity play some piano, and I became drawn to it through that experience because of its endless compatibility with expressionism.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
One of my temporary students was cast in a well known show. One of my students that I am most proud of just became more comfortable with singing, and that to me is a big deal. Finally, a student I’m currently teaching is trying out for the voice in a few weeks!
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have my AFA (Associate in fine arts). I chose this degree as a stepping stone to my Bachelors. I will obtain my Bachelors with in the next year. I am double majoring in Musical Performance and Education with a double minor in theory and composition. Throughout my educational career, I found most of these majors have overlapping credits, etc. I chose to become a well-rounded musician by taking every opportunity and learning everything I can to become the best I can be.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I use Hal Leonard for beginning students only. After intermediate, I like to pick pieces and work with my students on individual pieces as to give more freedom of choice in what they play.
