Instruments: Piano Voice Drums Bass Guitar Orchestral Percussion Conga Keyboard Acoustic Guitar
My method of teaching is that I always start from the theoretical part of every instrument or skill I teach because if they don’t have the background understanding they will be limited in their performances. I motivate by telling them my story how I started with no instrument I used borrow a two octaves keyboard from a choir member just to learn the piano my self I had no internet and no money so if I was able to learn in that condition they can do better.I teach the secrets of becoming a professional musician or music producer which one of them is consistency.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Flute
I play 3 different instruments. I originally started out on the flute. I played the flute during high shool and college. I studied under Karen , and Leslie Timmons. While I was at college, I became interested in Music Therapy. As part of the curriculum for Music Therapy, I also studied guitar and piano. I have worked as a music therapist and as a music teacher for many years. I have played in marching bands, orchestras, and symphonic bands. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Keyboard
I began teaching lessons at age 14 to young neighborhood beginners. As I progressed through the years, I expanded my range of student ability from beginner to upper intermediate, and from ages 6 to... well, older than me and I'm now 60! I have taught hundreds of students and enjoyed every one of them. I find that the more effort, especially in consistent and efficient practice (to be explained and demonstrated by me), that my students put in, the more pleasure and satisfaction they get out of it!

Instruments: Piano Organ Keyboard
I love teaching students how to read the music. It really makes my day when they can play a piece and enjoy the music. I want them to then go forth and share the joy with others. Usually I play a piece over and over until I get it, then I have a little fun with it.I enjoy teaching music as a substitute teacher. I currently play piano or organ at 3 different congregations.

I've always believed that learning comes 50% from the teacher, and 50% from the student. I do teach through lesson books but I've always found that they're better used as a guide rather than the focus of every lesson. I like to give the students the freedom to learn what they want to learn. I've always been willing to go the extra mile for my students, not just show up every week and continue from page 20 to see how far we get in the lesson book. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I love seeing my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, it is important that each student is allowed space to be curious and creative as well as have enough structure to know how to continue forward. Together, we will make realistic goals for the week at the end of each lesson according to the needs, interests, and availability of each student. I will make a concerted effort to acknowledge accomplishment and create motivating meaningful performance opportunities. Read More
Instruments: Piano
In my studio, students and their needs and concerns are most important. I love to see students grow in confidence and progress under my guidance. I approach my piano teaching with a calm and patient attitude. I believe piano is best learned in an encouraging and positive environment. I try to help students see how and why they are progressing as well as communicate clearly how and why the curriculum helps them to reach their goals. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I start by warming up with scales, rhythm exercises, and etudes. This helps promote a good foundation for future progression and goals. Afterwards, I focus on where my playing is weaker in a piece of music. I work on it over and over until you can confidently play it without issue. After that, I work on connecting that part I worked on with the rest of the piece of music. Sometimes after a while of this, it is helpful to just sight-read or arbitrarily play another piece of music for fun so my fingers and mind can have more flexibility and a break.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
Chaconne, I remember first listening to a recording of it by Jascha Heifetz, it was so powerful and conveyed so well a sense of a story. Perhaps it was also because I have something with minor chords in beginning of compositions. After I learned the story of how Bach came to write that piece of music it gained more depth and beauty to me. While it is a difficult violin solo, I also enjoy a good challenge especially when it is something that means much to me.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I started with piano when I was younger and I did enjoy it. My mom did not really get the chance when she was younger so she really wanted me to have that opportunity. Later when I was leaving elementary school I became fascinated with the violin. It was maybe because I wanted to enter orchestra in middle school with my friends or I just really liked the sound. I have to give kudos to my younger self because violin was one powerful way that helped me get through high school and really gave me an appreciation for music in later years.
When will I start to see results?
For me, it is when certain skills are ingrained in my muscle memory to a point I can do it without thinking too hard about it. It is when I have mastery over basic skills and techniques to the point my main focus is less on the building blocks of a piece of music and more on how it connects all together.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My orchestra teacher in high school and my private teacher were both strongly impacted me. They put so much patience and passion in their music and teaching that it was captivating and encouraging. The hard work and faith they had in me helped me progress to the point that I felt so much joy and freedom when I played. It is a legacy from them I wish to keep up.
