Instruments: Piano Voice Synthesizer Keyboard
For the beginner voice student who is young, I teach breath control and ear training through solfege. For adults, I take an assessment of what they want to learn and the goals they want to achieve musically. What I've found is in a lot of cases, adults want to learn how to sing a certain song, fix a pressing issue with their voice, or they just want to discover the joy of developing their ability to play.

The method I use in my studio is individually tailored to each student and the student's goal. I have found the the encouragement of each student's goals the best way to inspire them to learn.

My teaching experience goes back to when I was a sophomore in high school and I started to teach piano lessons after school to kids that ranged from the age of 5-13. In these lessons we would cover fundamentals, warm-ups, theory, classic literature, etudes, and any fun songs that they wanted! I always encouraged my students to practice and if they wanted to learn a video game song or pop chart we would focus on that. Read More

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
The best way to know whether your child is get ready to start the lesson is let him/her try to having one lesson. We will never know their interest until they have tried. I have taught many young students, and their parents cannot clear know whether their children love music. Because they don't have many opportunities get close to learning it professionally, so why not let them try to have one lesson?
Some parents might consider that their children are too young to have lesson, and they are afraid that if they will have pressure of having lesson. My answer is no, because one of the most important goal in my lesson, is to let my students enjoy the music and lesson. I will do my best to help them learning knowledge in a happiness lesson mode.
When will I start to see results?
Actually, after each lesson you would have progress, while which is hard to see distinctively. For beginners, when you have learned the basic theory knowledge and several short pieces, from then, you will find you have a obvious progress and you can see your results. This process generally need to take two months for young students, (around one month for adults). If you are an intermediate or advanced student, to see the results usually depends on how long you can completely learn a new piece. Because for every new piece, finishing learning all the notes is just the beginning part, focusing on the all emotional expression is the rest part, that students have to spend more time working on, like dynamic changes, right rhythm, the control of melody lines, and so on. After you working on a new piece, you will find you have a great progress whatever from your technique skills aspect or understanding to the music.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
First of all, knowing well the whole new piece can help students learning it easily. Listening the piece with reading the score as much as you can before you start practicing will help you be familiar with all the notes, and avoid play the wrong notes.
I would like to encourage students set up the realistic goals for practicing, and make them into many smaller steps to reach. For example, if you are starting learning a new piece, firstly, you need to thinking how long do I need to finish learning it completely. And then, give yourself an answer, such as one week, which can be regarded as a realistic goals. Therefore, you have to divide this piece into several parts to learning and practicing. Persisting in practicing one part daily, (just thinking each part as the smaller steps) which will be the most easy and practical way to complete your new piece.
