Instruments: Piano Voice
I believe that it is very important for any singer to have a music theory background, so I make sure to include in any of my vocal lessons basic keyboard knowledge. Further, I have found that it is important to incorporate all types of music in lessons. Learning all sorts of style in music is crucial to continue growing as a performer. Finally, it is important for a student to enjoy their lessons and find passion in their own music. Read More

My music leadership experience began with competitive show choir in 8th grade - voted Student of the Year - and these experiences inspired me through high school! The show choir program director appointed me tenor section leader in 9th grade and Voice Captain in 10th grade for my ability to lead voice sectional rehearsals and provide pianist accompaniment when needed. I am currently a performing arts coach for the Anaheim Union High School District, supporting vocal music and dance program directors with clinician and choreography services. Read More

There's nothing more fulfilling than witnessing a student cultivate a genuine love for music. Hence, I prioritize enabling every student to advance according to their individual pace. I foster this by establishing achievable objectives during each lesson, recognizing their achievements to ignite their motivation to excel and further their learning enthusiasm. By identifying their sources of inspiration, I adeptly customize my instruction to cater to their preferences and necessities. I believe that every student possesses infinite potential, and I aspire to nurture their individual talents. Read More

With any student who is in a beginning sort of stage with their musicality, I will start off by teaching them basic techniques, simple notes or chords(dependent on the type of instrument), and rudimentary knowledge of the notational system. Once they have started to make some progress, I take a unique approach by asking them of their own opinion for where they would want to see themselves go. I do this to not only make it as exciting as possible for the student, but to help them achieve a vision they already have for themselves. Read More

I am very fortunate to have worked with great teachers, who not only inspired me to play the guitar at a very high level but also to desire to pass on that knowledge to my students. I am very passionate about working with all my students. I strive to make every student comfortable, but gently nudge them to become the best musician they possibly can. I encourage students to get ready and perform on stage and in front of an audience as soon as possible. Read More

For 3-5 year olds on piano I use Wunderkeys and supplement with Bastien Music Tree and music I have written when note reading is introduced. Usually I continue into Faber and Faber but Wunderkeys is adding more method books for beginners 5+ and I may start using that once it is available for purchase. I highly encourage theory and incorporate it into lessons when time. I have use Three Cranky Women theory books and Julie McIntosh Johnson Theory. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Viola Electric Violin
When my students first start I start them on the Suzuki method until they get to book 4. While they are learning from that certain method I do encourage students to tell me what songs they enjoy listening to and we will choose easy versions of the song that keeps them motivated and excited. Once my students pass book 4 of Suzuki we start getting advanced music including scale books, etudes, and concertos. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Set specific goals: It's important to have a clear idea of what you want to achieve in each practice session. Setting specific goals helps you stay focused and motivated.
Establish a routine: Try to practice at the same time each day, so that it becomes a habit. This will help you make consistent progress.
Start slow: When learning a new piece or technique, start by practicing slowly and gradually increase your speed as you become more comfortable.
Break it down: If a piece or technique seems too difficult, break it down into smaller sections and focus on mastering each section before moving on to the next.
Use a metronome: A metronome can help you keep a steady tempo and improve your timing.
Record yourself: Recording yourself while practicing can help you identify areas that need improvement and track your progress over time.
Take breaks: It's important to take breaks during practice sessions to avoid burnout and give your brain and muscles time to rest.
Stay positive: Remember that learning a new skill takes time and effort. Stay positive and celebrate your progress, no matter how small.
By following these tips, you can practice effectively and make consistent progress in your musical journey.
When will I start to see results?
Practice habits: How often and how effectively you practice can greatly affect your progress. Practicing for short periods every day is more effective than practicing for longer periods less frequently.
Previous musical experience: If you have previous experience playing an instrument or reading music, you may find it easier to learn the piano and progress more quickly.
Difficulty of the repertoire: The difficulty of the music you are learning can also affect how quickly you see results. Starting with simple pieces and gradually increasing the difficulty can help you progress more smoothly.
With consistent practice, you can expect to see some results within a few months. You may notice improvements in your hand-eye coordination, finger dexterity, and ability to read music. However, becoming proficient at the piano and being able to play more complex pieces can take several years of dedicated practice.
It's important to remember that learning to play the piano is a journey and not a destination. Enjoy the process and celebrate your progress along the way. With patience and perseverance, you can achieve your goals and become a skilled pianist.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Age: Generally, children can start taking piano lessons at around age 5 or 6. However, every child is different and some may be ready to start earlier or later.
Interest: Does your child express an interest in playing the piano? If they seem curious about the instrument and enjoy listening to music, it may be a good time to start lessons.
Attention span: Piano lessons require a certain level of focus and attention. If your child has a short attention span, you may want to wait until they are a bit older and better able to concentrate.
Physical ability: Playing the piano requires good hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills. If your child has difficulty with activities that require these skills, such as coloring or writing, they may not be ready for piano lessons just yet.
Parental support: Learning the piano requires practice at home, so it's important that parents are willing and able to support their child's practice sessions and attend lessons regularly.
Ultimately, the decision to start piano lessons should be based on your child's individual needs and interests.
