Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice

My teaching experience dates back to high school days, where I felt the urge to share what I've learned immidiately after completing taking guitar lessons. I began to teach guitar at a community center at the age of 16. I also started to give private lessons along with the classses that I was teaching at the community center.

My teaching style is dynamic, depending on my student's skill level. The progress of a student's musical skill is dependent on their willingness to practice and focus on improvement discussed during our lessons. Each student of course is on their own path and pace. Positive reinforcement and setting goals are both important to a student's development. Understanding what the student wants to get out of their music lessons is a vital aspect when it comes to their eagerness and enjoyment to practice and progress. Read More

I believe the secret to improvement is playing everyday, even if it is just for 5-10 minutes. As far as studying a improvisation, listening to music is another secret that can not be overestimated.

I have various lesson plans to get peoples facility on their instrument to the level of playing what they 'hear in their head'. Read More
