Instruments: Piano Violin
I use an organized step by step method as a general rule, depending on the students age and ability, seeking to have each student master the fundamentals of rhythm, note reading, technique and expression in a logical easy to understand way. I require practice at least 4 days a week to ensure progress. For preschool age children, I use the Wunderkeys method. I seek to minimize frustration, encourage students to e-mail with questions, use games as a learning tool and assign pieces they like and pieces that are standard repertoire. Read More
Instruments: Piano Clarinet
I began teaching as early as 2003, while in high school on clarinet. I continued to teach during college as a voice coach, and have been teaching piano, music theory and music composition to this date. I have worked with both children and adults, in classrooms and one on one. One of the things that distinguishes me from other teachers is how I tailor my program for each student, because everyone learns differently and has different strengths and talents. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Keyboard
I encourage my students to find and explain to me the techniques that are working for them once I have given any instruction. I want you to have a deep seeded understanding of the teachings which I am employing upon you. I will begin with basic music fundamentals for all my students and establish a scope of your knowledge and then move forward accordingly. For my piano students I will start with a beginning piano book and we will move forward as you progress. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I have been teaching piano for more than 25 years and my students have been prize winners in local competitions and festivals as performers and composers. Former students have gone on to attend universities such as Cornell, Columbia, Brown and other well known colleges. I am an experienced church organist and accompanist for vocal and instrumental soloists as well as choirs. I am an experienced chamber musician and am the founder and pianist of the Papillons Piano Trio which performs locally. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Synthesizer Music Keyboard
I am a professional musician, clinical experienced music therapist, and a certificated early childhood music educator in one. During my career, I found my strong passionate about helping children and adults to reach the highest potential. I have long experience in the field of teaching , and I can share my past experience like a piano classical concertist and a rock composer/pianist with all my students.My Music Culture come from my familiy, my Father was a famous Italian guitarist and composer for Movies soundtrack and my mom was an international singer and actress.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin Cello Viola Bass Guitar Double Bass Music Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I know everyone learns at different speeds so making sure they are comfortable yet challenging is important to me.Being able to know when the student is enjoying and not making it a chore is a key to helping and encouraging a student learn. Watching them progress in their insturment is rewarding in of itself and nothing is more satisfying. As the student starts to see him or herself accomplish each lesson I like to praise, push and encourage to keep on. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Trumpet Drums Bass Guitar Euphonium Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I have had a love a music for as long as I can remember. My mom used to play in her community band when she was pregnant with me. In 2013, I graduated from Chapman University with a Bachelor's degree in music performance, primarily in Trumpet and Bass Guitar. While in High School, I performed in every Ensemble I possibly could, which includes Symphonic Band, Marching Band, Orchestra, and Jazz Band. Read More
Instruments: Saxophone
When will I start to see results?
Every day! Results are not necessarily tied to me, or any instructor, for that matter. Rather, it is my job to provide material, instruction, and benchmarks to assess, and it is the student that progresses in their own unique way. Music is a journey, with no destination, and results are highly subjective. I am deeply passionate about understanding how "results" are a personal aspect of learning, and while they can certainly provide motivation to continue the journey, they're not always something tangible - sometimes, simply sounding a note a bit clearer, or having a better understanding of breathing, and how it affects all aspects of playing is a huge result, yet the outward projection of the sax (to the audience) changes little. Results are produced every time the student picks up their saxophone.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Have a goal in mind. This doesn't have to be a formal goal, such as playing Charlie Parker's "Donna Lee" at 300BPM - while that would be noteworthy, the goal of practicing is simply doing something. An example could be playing mid-A, holding it for as long as possible, while maintaining solid intonation from soft (piano) to loud (fortissimo). Keep it simple, but know the goal. Sometime just playing for 15 minutes is a goal, as time doesn't allow for much more - great! Now, go do it! Again, the goal is simply as stated, nothing that someone else deems important - it's all about you!
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The fact that I/you will never master our instrument - there is always something to learn, something to improve, and something to incorporate new into our musical portfolio. For many students, this is a difficult barrier to overcome, as they are accustomed to a general formula that suggests "x" amount of "y" will equal "xy." With music, it's not that simple - nor should it be! Music should be seen as a high-personal, enjoyable medium for expression, and what is accomplished today only continues to build upon the musical arsenal, not a step toward a finite end.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Along with awards from my school and various awards from Berklee College of Music, I am most proud of my ability to share the saxophone with others seeking to learn. I understand that the ability to effectively teach is a gift, and I feel as if I've been awarded a lifetime honor of having the privilege to do just that, all the while enjoying it and laughing along the way. Years of commitment to the saxophone and music pays off in many ways, chief of which is the ability to share my experiences and teach people of all ages and abilities.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I chose the saxophone because, to me, nothing sounded like it, and I wanted to create music with that sound. It's also the reason I incorporate demonstration into my teaching methods, as I want to inspire others in the same manner - if they hear something they love, they'll be more motivated to achieve their goals. The saxophone is also an incredible versatile instrument - from 12-bar blues to funk rock, there is a place for the sax, and, to me, that's an excellent reason to know how to play it.
