Instruments: Piano Saxophone Clarinet Music
For students that are beginners in music, I use the Essential Elements and Rubank methods to teach them how to read music as well as their instrument. For more advanced students, I place more of an emphasis on the fundamentals of the instrument specifically developing a warm, beautiful sound and establishing a vast technical facility. All of my students are expected to keep a practice journal as way to encourage logging their own progress and goals. Read More
Instruments: Piano
Whether it was just a few notes or a very skillful melody. I would listen to them with interest myself. When I become a piano teacher, I had the compassion and patience to teach my students. Listening and correcting techniques from the starting position to the correct use of their fingers then gradually becoming proficient. I would like to let my students ask more questions while I provide them with knowledge that will benefit them or choose the songs they want to learn. Read More
Instruments: Piano Organ Synthesizer Keyboard
I've found the greatest musicians are really listeners, and it requires concentration to begin early music education, so my system is developed to help individuals find their ear, hear the music they want to play. My best success teaching a novice is after using my theory, the student begins to read their left and right on the music staffs, and relate to how they play using both hands on their keyboard.

Instruments: Piano Voice Violin
I began teaching private lessons in college as a side job, but due to touring with orchestras I was unable to truly develop my own studio. I also volunteer taught students from low-income families through the Azusa Pacific Conservatory for two years. In the summers of 2010 and 2011, I took over a former teacher's studio of 20+ students while he toured in Europe. I have been working in National Parks for the past 3 years and have always brought my instruments with me. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I like to always start off by having the student play the piece that we've been working on for the past few weeks to check on his/her progress and to address any needs or changes we need to make. I also work with the student on his/her scales and building the foundation needed to play more technically challenging pieces. I find it very important to work on technique as many players nowadays often struggle with more difficult pieces and do not execute certain sections as smoothly due to a lack of attention during his/her early stages in building up the foundation and technique.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Make it your goal to practice just 15 minutes a day and your growth as a musician will happen very quickly. Waiting for the last day before lessons does not give you the benefit of repetition over many days. Also, once you start your 15 minutes, you might actually enjoy the creative process and spend more time than you originally planned. The hurdle that we all need to overcome is TIME! We are all busy people, but music is essential to the human soul, so it is so important to make the time! Just 15 minutes a day will truly do wonders.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
For your child to be successful at the repetition and structure of learning the piano, they should show an interest and joy in music and learning an instrument. Your child will most likely be between 8 and 10 years old with a 30 minute attention span for sitting still long enough to do something like homework or read a book. Your child will have the fine and gross motor skills to write alphabet letters. It is imperative that your child be able to read and write, so they can be successful.
For vocal students, your child should be able to read and write, so again between the ages of 8-10 are good for beginning. The students at this age will catch up very quickly to peers who may have started their music training at a younger age. They will be musically and developmentally ready to start their music instruction.
When will I start to see results?
Enthusiastic parents and students can work together to see results. Parents can help students remember to practice at home as part of their daily routine. After 2-3 months of diligent 15 minutes/day practice, the students will show dramatic growth in their music skills. Parents who have a positive attitude and help students feel enthusiastic about practice will provide the structure and support students need to be more successful. Students should also find music that excites them and watch videos of musicians who inspire them and study the style of music they want to emulate.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I was the pianist for the LDS San Bernardino Stake Choir for over 4 years. I also had the honor of assisting with choir conducting there. I have accompanied youth and children's choirs for over 20 years. For singing, I have sung duets and solos since I was in high school and I am always watching and learning and applying new style and techniques to my performances.
