“Treat people as if they were what they ought to be and you help them to become what they are capable of becoming.” -Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. I am looking forward to sharing the enriching universal language of music with you. I am here to encourage and inspire my students and to help them reach their full potential and discover their love for music. I teach the fundamentals of piano playing- including proper healthy technique, artistry, music history, and music theory. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Cello Viola Double Bass 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 encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
My teaching experience dates back to my college days, as I began teaching at a music summer camp 3 years ago. Since then, I have been teaching private students. I encourage regular practice sessions. This is one of the key points I like to emphasize for beginners especially, as it tends to help the student progress, gain a passion for the instrument, and build discipline. I've also found that a combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy music, motivate them to practice and continue to learn. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Cello
My teaching originated in high school when I taught a few beginners the wonderful basics of the cello. I've now taught for over 15 years and have brought all students of all levels to new heights. When teaching, I explain what it is that I do when I play and how to learn this. Just performing would not allow me to share my insights from years of my musical journey. Read More

I always like to know what is the goal of each of my students. What style or genre they like as well as if they are aiming to be a solo performer or part of a band or ensemble. I like to start students on method books such as Hal Leonard's Essential Elements, this will teach students basic music theory as well as how to read on a staff. If also like contemporary music, I will teach them how to read chords letters, so to play styles such as jazz, pop, rock and contemporary gospel music. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
Since teaching was easy for me I've shared with students all along as I myself worked on my skills. I've had the joy of studying under great masters and I've modeled my teaching style around them. I'm eclectic when it comes to musical styles for I myself had too many loves. I'm trained in classical and jazz disciplines but have performed/recorded and produced others styles such as rock, pop and latin. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Tape your lessons with your teacher, oral or video. Your teacher's advice on how to practice is your best companion. Next best, take notes and review them. Remember what your teacher told you and implement it.
Practice requires a coordination of both time and space. It starts with setting a space apart, a comfortable quite place and the same for a time.
Practicing usually has a break down into different stages. There is a warm up stage, then there is the body of the practice session. There is the principle of breaking down difficulties into smaller units in order to overcome them. The principle of divide and conquer, whether it is by separate hands or by shorter pieces of the difficult passage or by slowing of the tempo or by approaching the passage in multiple ways rhythmically or technically.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If the parent is ready ,the child is usually ready. It is essential to have the parent's involvement in the musical progress of the child. You must create a musical culture at home. If you play music ,either in and instrument or in the radio or CD player and you do it consciously for it's own sake, or sing at home whether casually or otherwise or visit places where there is live music whether at concerts or otherwise , and if on top of all that you have a musical instrument at home and speak highly of music, culture and art, your child very likely is ready for music lessons.
If you don't have any of the above you can still instill something of the desire for music lessons in your child if you approach it as a therapeutical or as an intellectual exercise. That's different. Music as a means to develop the brain, intellenge, emotions, improve memory, strengthen the charachter, instill perseverance, overcome long term challenges and develop patience and self control is priceless. There are extra benefits for the physical too, like learning to breath correctly, proper posture and use of the body and motor development and coordination of mind and body and the fingers. If you come from that background or have planted those ideas in your child , he or she are also ready for music.
When will I start to see results?
Music is a long term thing. That is why it is one of the best tools to develop patience, endurance and perseverance. If you don't have patience but have perseverance and like a good challenge that's a good start. However ,even if you could expect results immediately it is not a good idea to start music on that. It depends on what results you want. There is a one day course on playing chords. It is usually done in about six hours. You can walk out with a chart on music theory and enough knowledge to be able to play the guitar chords from a lead sheet. We could make a three month plan for a whole music theory course with ear training and all and a bit of piano, or a six month plan for more in depth piano and reading . The Bayer method is an elementary piano course but complete for a good grasp of piano can be done in six months . If you have a wide exposure to music at home , community or otherwise , you probably will go faster than if not. If you don't have that kind of exposure to music you will probably go slower. Again it depends on how you approach it. If you already play on a regular basis and are only refining your skills or widen your horizons you will go fast. If music lessons will only be a hobby for you , you can still progress fast if you make a good plan. The calendar is essential. A fixed and methodical schedule written down will for sure yield results fast enough.
