Instruments: Piano Violin Viola Music
Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I understand some student may not have much time to practice, so I encourage as long as you practice even once or twice per week , set a short goal even one line two lines on the music or couple of bars, progress little and slow but practice on the right way, building right correct position and get used of it still helpful then nothing or some incorrect habit.

Instruments: Piano Voice Keyboard
Music is a great art form to express emotion and passion for something we cannot say in words. In church, I teach the choir to express their feelings of joyfulness when praising God. Outside church, I've taught privately in piano and voice for twelve years, five with Musika. I always encourge my students to practice with patience daily for 15-20 minutes in order to successfully progress. Most importantly, they must have fun, smile and play/sing with excitement. Read More
Instruments: Piano Cello
My teaching began in senior year of my high school. I taught at Memorial High School Orchestra, where I lead cello sectionals, taught one-on-one lessons, and coached chamber ensembles. In addition, I received training in introductory conducting. I believe that with my lessons, I have a balance between having fun and actually improving. Practice is absolutely mandatory to further improve one's abilities, and I expect students to try their best. Read More

Teaching recorder at age 15 (seriously...) I have been teaching here in the NYC area since the mid ninties. When I was a student at MSM the head of tutoring noticed me helping students and signed me up with a tutoring service that led to a position in a few schools and finally put me in the faculty of MSM pre colloege division. In addition I have between 20 to 30 private students every year. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Music Keyboard
Teaching Experience: 20yrs+. I have experiences teaching students private, small group, and large group ensembles with diverse colors and ages of people. I have students with different ages from youngest ages 5 years to seniors 85+. When I meet students for the first time, I try to learn their musical background and listen to their ability so I can find their best way to improve their abilities. For younger ages, I try to be more fun and define how they concentrate, so I can choose the right materials to teach them and guide their way to accomplish their goals. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Keyboard
For beginning students, I prefer to use the Alfred's Basic Piano Course books. Once the student gets down the fundamentals and becomes more technically proficient, I introduce solo repertoire and get them started with some fun and musical etudes to improve finger dexterity. I also like to make the lessons fun and entertaining for the kids by playing some music games or giving rewards. For adult students, I try to find appropriate beginner piano books. Read More
Instruments: Piano Drums Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion
My teaching style involves a comprehensive approach topercussion that is inclusive of all styles of music. I emphasize the importance of obtaining asolidityin the fundamentals and showing the student how it willget them to where they wnat to be.I alsoaim to make the student doesn't just learn a few beats or scalesand then call it day. I encourage the student to seek an understanding ofthe music, and to knowwhy they are playing what they are playing. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
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 2 degrees. My first degree is a Bachelor of Arts from Oregon state university in Vocal performance.
My second degree is a masters in music from Brooklyn college conservatory of music.
I chose to pursue these degrees because I knew I wanted to be trained to the highest degree and be able to use that knowledge to continue to grow as a vocalist and help others grow in their own instrument.
While a masters was not required for the jobs I perform now, it was extremely essential in securing my role as vocal captain in my casts.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
Vocalizing is absolutely essential to the beginning of every session.
Vocalizing is equally important in my own performing.
I love vocalizing because it allows me to test drive my voice for the day.
Our voices can fluctuate so much day to day, it’s important to feel in tune with your own instrument.
My sessions start with plenty of vocalizing and eventually leads to work on solo pieces.
I always allow plenty of space to communicate with my students and give them the opportunity to speak about what there experiencing while they’re singing.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I am very open to all techniques. I grew up playing violin with the Suzuki method, which had shaped my ear wonderfully, but required me to learn to read music supplementally.
I also was exposed to Orff and Dalcroze methods from a very early age.
As far as vocal technique, I have had teachers who used the Caruso method and Alexander technique.
I am not married to any specific technique though I have experienced many different types.
I believe in a tailored to the student method is best.
My favorite teacher always asked me if what I was doing felt good. That was what was most important.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Singing is one of those things that is completely different than any other instrument.
You are exposing your entire self and making yourself vulnerable to the listener and to the art itself.
I think, as with most things, the more you master it, the more little things you find that you want to improve. Living in the imperfection can be incredibly exposing and frustrating, but mastering is not about perfecting.
Sometimes putting down the paint brush is the most difficult part of mastering an instrument.
Some days you’re going to be in amazing voice and sometimes you’re having an off day. Both situations are useful.
