Instruments: Piano Voice Music Keyboard
Teaching is one of the greatest joys in my life. I genuinely love helping students discover their voice whether thats through singing, playing, writing songs, or simply connecting to music in a deeper way. Watching someone gain confidence, express themselves, and grow through music is incredibly rewarding, and I feel lucky to be a part of that journey. My approach is student-centered, supportive, and personalized. I take time to understand each students unique goals, personality, and learning style so I can tailor lessons that truly fit them.

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet
I began teaching as a student at OSU, then started teaching shortly after moving to California. I have been fortunate to have experience teaching students both individually and in group settings. My private students have been of all ages and different levels. One commonality I have found between students in these different settings is that they all have different goals and things that motivate them. With this in mind, I try to provide lessons that meet the individual needs of the student, while also keeping them engaged. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Acoustic Guitar
Hey there! My name's Dave and I am very passionate about music and through my playing the goal for me has been to inspire people. I doubted my musical abilities and compared myself a lot to others and quit music on several seasons whether that be learning a difficult song or comparing myself to my role model musicians. A family friend inspired me to keep playing and since then I've been writing, performing, and working as a musician. Read More

I believe that choosing lesson material should always be a collaborative experience between student and teacher. Flexibility is one of my core values in teaching music, as I’ve found that each student has unique interests, goals, strengths, and weaknesses. Rather than going into lessons with a set curriculum, I like to give students some agency over what they’d like to learn while making sure to cover fundamentals as they apply along the way. Read More

I encourage my students to find and explain to me the techniques that are working for them once I have given any instruction. I want you to have a deep seeded understanding of the teachings which I am employing upon you. I will begin with basic music fundamentals for all my students and establish a scope of your knowledge and then move forward accordingly. For my piano students I will start with a beginning piano book and we will move forward as you progress. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Drums Recorder
To witness students making progress and share their passion for music is quite rewarding. I love to see how teaching music can also affect students in their personal lives. Some teaching methods can be translated to everyday life challenges. From my experience, learning an instrument or music, in general, can help tremendously to deal with day-to-day struggles or even mental state. It can help to deal with depression or ease some pain related to difficulties in their personal lives. Read More

I am a composer and musicologist. Currently I am an active composer and working on multiple materials for performances. I am also writing an extensive book on the music of Star Wars. it will cover all the 9 films (including the upcoming episode 9). I have a Doctor of Musial Arts Degree from Claremont Graduate University. I have taught both in the classroom and one on one lessons for 25 years. I have taught music to K-12 and the College level.

Instruments: Violin Viola
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Well, if I weren't a musician, I think I would still be involved in something related to teaching and helping others learn and grow. Music has always been my passion, and teaching the violin and viola to young students like your child is incredibly fulfilling for me.
If I had to choose an alternative career path, I might have become an educator or a mentor in a different field. I enjoy sharing knowledge and inspiring others to reach their full potential, so perhaps I would have become a teacher in a different subject, a tutor, or even a counselor. Ultimately, my desire to make a positive impact on people's lives through education and guidance would have remained a driving force, even if it weren't in the realm of music.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Well, I must say, as a classical violin and viola instructor, my favorite style of music to play is, unsurprisingly, classical music! There are several reasons why I have a deep appreciation for this genre.
Firstly, classical music offers a rich and diverse repertoire that spans several centuries. From the beautiful melodies of composers like Mozart and Beethoven to the complex and emotional works of Tchaikovsky and Brahms, there's a vast array of music to explore and enjoy.
Secondly, classical music provides a fantastic opportunity to develop technical skills on the violin and viola. The intricate phrasing, bowing techniques, and fingerings required in classical pieces challenge both beginners and advanced players, making it a constant journey of improvement and growth.
Moreover, classical music has a timeless quality that allows us to connect with the past and the musicians who came before us. It's a way to preserve and celebrate the cultural heritage of different eras, which I find quite fascinating.
Lastly, classical music allows for a deep emotional connection with the instrument and the audience. The power of classical music to convey complex emotions and tell stories through music is truly remarkable. It's a rewarding experience to share these emotions with both the players and the listeners.
So, while I enjoy various musical styles, classical music remains my favorite due to its depth, diversity, technical challenges, and the profound emotional connection it offers. And I hope to share my passion for this genre with your child as we continue our violin and viola lessons!
