My love for teaching began as a peer tutor in college. I tutored students in piano, guitar, bass ear training, and music theory. I began to love teaching when I noticed the change and progress it creates within people. While in college, I taught at a musical theatre camp as a music teacher. I taught music theory, ear training, and vocal music. Right after I graduated college I was accepted into the music education program at Teachers College Columbia University where I received my masters degree in music education along with certification in New York state to teach Pre-K through 12.

For my piano students, I like to use a mixture of books from the Alfred, Bastien, and John W. Schaum collections. I eventually assign more advanced solo repertoire as the student progresses. For my vocal students, I pick music based on their interests and vocal qualities. I have taught my students musical theater, opera, art song, gospel, pop, and many other styles throughout the years. I also like to make sure my students have a solid understanding in music theory and often give out worksheets that help them practice how to sight read, recognize different key signatures, and more.

When will I start to see results?
Similar to the question of when to start lessons, results are based on several factors before it really shows. If students' pacing are fast, and learning experiences are positive, the results would show earlier than later. However, it all depends on students' learning ability and the effectiveness of the communication between instructors and students. Better interactions during the lessons, practicing results should be more rewarding. What is ensured to the results is coming from once students follow the tips and instructional guidelines well from the lessons, the outcomes with positive results will arrive eventually.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My first teacher while I was learning piano in my hometown is the person who encouraged me to go into music. Her teaching style is inspiring, and that's how I like to take piano lessons from the very beginning. She is a great person, not just dedicated during lessons, but also is willing to spend extra times chatting with me outside the lessons. Her teaching style is disciplined but not strict, at one point I've been told that I have to follow with the rulebook, on the other side she cares very much about my creative thinking ability.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Concentrating well, rather than mechanical practicing. Sitting in longer hours to practice would not help students play better. Practicing with appropriate strategies is important, as the instructor should emphasize the main focus and working aspects for students at each lesson. Regularly remind students their concurrent problems, letting them aware of what they need to work on, and what you would like to see in next lesson. If students have obstacles in practicing, or having a hard time to overcome the troubles, never discourage their ability, offering some effective suggestions and help them to overcome the difficulties. Once they gain the improvements from practicing, they will feel rewarding and like to practice more.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
There is no specific timeline when to start lessons. It could be started from completely zero without even knowing how to play a single note. I personally would not recommend start piano lessons too early. I think the ideal beginning age is around 7, earlier or later within a year is alright. If kids have reluctant attitudes or being negative when they're connected to the piano lessons, I would encourage parents should not force them to take lessons yet, in contrast give them some pre knowledge and explain the potential fun facts of learning piano.
