Instruments: Piano Voice
I try to find a balance between being laid-back and offering my students enough structure so that they can develop at an appropriate pace. While encouraging my students to find ways to express themselves, I also try to be realistic with them about the importance of musicianship and technique. Empathy is the most important thing for me, as I try to help and nurture my students to explore their own musical talents. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar
For beginning to intermediate guitar players, I would suggest learning some of the fundamentals and basics from Hal Leonard's Guitar Method Complete Edition - Books 1 2 and 3 (bound together in one volume). As the student develops a better understanding of music and a better ability to play it, I would then work on finding them a piece of music that challenges their knowledge and technique, yet also a piece of music that they would want to play, and that they would be passionate about learning.

Instruments: Piano Flute
I have over a decade’s combined experience teaching music to K-12 and adult students of all levels, including four years of TA’ing college-level music courses. I have worked as a private flute and piano teacher, an after-school program instructor, a summer music camp teacher, and as a substitute music theory instructor at a community music school. While at UC Davis, I was a TA for several music courses, including introductory music theory, introductory music history, and intermediate ear training. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet Piccolo Music
I incorporate method books into all of my lessons, as well as any technique books that are appropriate for each specific student. The method books that I begin with are Essential Elements, the I Recommend series, Standard of Excellence, and Tradition of Excellence. The technique books depend on the specific instrument and ability level. I feel that it is very important to get every student playing actual sheet music as soon as possible, regardless of skill level. Read More
Instruments: Piano
My goal is always to encourage students through their musical journey by honing in on their strengths while also addressing areas they can improve upon. At each lesson, I make very clear goals for each student to work on for their next meeting with me. I always like to supplement their lesson material with music that speaks to the student's interest, be that something more jazzy or from a pop artist. Read More
Instruments: Piano Flute Music
Hello! I am a Colombian-American composer and flutist from the San Francisco Bay Area with a Bachelor of Music degree in Composition from San Jose State University. I have been working as a freelance musician for about 5 years. As a performer, I play just about anything and enjoy challenging myself with new repertoire, I particularly like playing Romantic or Modern music! I've had so many opportunities to perform with various chamber groups through an organization called Chamber Music Silicon Valley, and have traveled to many places in California and outside of the United States to perform and teach.

Instruments: Piano Voice Trombone
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
MM in Performance. Performing on stage is on of my favorite things to do. I've done it so much that it feels natural, so I decided to get my degree in performance. But I do encourage students in high school to think outside of the box and try things in college that might not be as comfortable, just to expand their horizons and see what else is out there.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
In high school I wanted to draw comic books!
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Jazz is so much fun, and full of different styles within the genre.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I was always writing songs in school and wanted to play them, so I learned piano.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I had multiple teachers who inspired me. From elementary school to high school, I had very supportive music teachers who always encouraged me to push myself, join in bands and ensembles, enter into contests and summer camps. Throughout my schooling, I always had someone by my side telling me I could do it, whatever it was.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
They need to be able to focus and listen to instructions for at least 30 minutes. I've had piano students in kindergarten, so it depends on the student. I started playing trombone when I was 9 years old, but I didn't take lessons until I was in high school. The most important requirement for me is that the student wants to learn!
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Start off with short practices (15-30 minutes)
Practice consistently! A little bit every day helps.
Make goals for yourself to accomplish during the practice time.
If something is difficult, practice that part more than anything else.
Listen to professionals playing your instrument so you have a good idea of what kind of sound you should produce.
Listen to recordings of the music you are playing to know what the style/tone of the piece is
When will I start to see results?
I believe that depends on how diligently your student practices. Practice time is essential to learning music, or else the once-a-week lesson will have very little impact on the student after a week of not practicing. The students who even dedication 10-20 minutes of practice every day make very good results within the month, because they are developing muscle memory through playing a certain instrument consistently.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I thought the trombone looked unique, and once I picked it up, I never put it down!
