Instruments: Piano Guitar Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet Drums Recorder Mallet Percussion
I am a passionate and motivated instructor who specializes in working with young beginning musicians. My experience as a former elementary school general music teacher and band director has provided me with the insight to support students to succeed in those environments. Music has afforded me the opportunity to travel the world as a performer and, it is my goal to support my students so they may also have the same experiences. Read More

It's very rewarding and exciting to see students excel in the performing arts and grow a love for music. Setting goals, paces and challenges are key concepts for my students at each lesson. Positive reinforcement also helps motivate a students desire to learn more. Adapting to those key factors allows me to teach my students successfully. Read More
Instruments: Piano Keyboard
The two most important things to me when it comes to teaching piano are making sure that my students get the fundamentals down and also have fun in the process! There is no shortcut for proper technique so emphasizing the basics from the start creates a strong foundation to grow as a pianist and will allow you to advance much more quickly. Finally, it's important to have fun and enjoy the process. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin
I have been a musician since I can remember. I come from a musical family all multi instrumentalists. I received my BA Music from San Diego State University and studied as a piano major and was a member of the SDSU Symphony Orchestra playing violin. While at Grossmont High School, I played clarinet and mallets in marching band and was in the symphonic band and orchestra; I sang alto in the award winning choir. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Trumpet Trombone Euphonium Keyboard
I believe that music provides opportunities for students to learn in ways that they will never experience in an academic classroom setting. Music provides a gateway for students of ALL ages, social, and economic backgrounds to have obtain a feeling of gratification and immense sense of pride. I worked in an incredibly hostile environment with a skeleton team of dedicated teachers that relied on each other and our innate desire to educate to strive for our educational goals. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I provide a warm and positive learning environment for students. I believe students learn best when they are unafraid to make mistakes or try new things, and are rewarded for their efforts. After the first few lessons, I ask students if they would like to participate in my reward system for practicing: I give them a small jar and marbles, and every day they practice, they put a marble in the jar.

Instruments: Piano Violin
I usually beginwith warm-ups, scales, music theory, then continue with reviewing past homework, focusing on posture, rhythm, technique, etc. Lastly, we will sightread and preview the next pieces to be assigned for homework. Pace is set mostly by the student and how much they practice, but I will always nudge the student to improve in musicianship and posture after every lesson, with patience and perseverance. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
If you practice you will understand and move more quickly. Just like homework if you do you will understand. If you don't practice you are still learning, but it will take longer to achieve.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Can your child count and know 1-5? Are they able to understand 1-5? Do they know alphabet? They do not need to be able to read to teach, but should be able to handle and listening directions. They need to be able to sit still for about 20 minutes and listen. Online lesson a caregiver or parent is very helpful and it works wonderful. I have work books to help the child stay interested. With voice does the child love to sing? It will build up her confidence and her ability. I teach students that have been doing amazing in thatre arts and also in school because they take choir.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
Bastien love the chords
Alfred for little ones their way of teaching music is great for little ones. It is so much fun and builds confidence
Faber their creativity and able to teach children more concepts of dynamics.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
learning to be patient and discipline. It takes time to learn, but in every step learning a instrument is a great achievement. Every student can look back 6 months or a year and say I wasn't able to do this, but now I can. They need to look at their achievement Sometimes we busy and struggle or maybe even lose interest, but music is a life time gift. Sports are amazing, but most people won't be playing soccer in later life, but they can play an instrument their whole lives even a elderly lady 101 years old was playing so beautifully..
When will I start to see results?
you will see it right away. They will be playing small songs, but they are learning, coordination, reading music, value of music, fundamental music
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
mrs. cooper She was patient and creative.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
my parents chose the piano but so glad they did and i chose to take voice later
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I can write classical, children's musicals, contemporary music, and perform . I can also play for choirs and teach as a music director. I'm grateful for my parent's supporting me in lessons growing up.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
yes i had one child make the regional for voice in Las Vegas and she won.
I have had many students be main or lead characters in musicals.
I have had students go to college and get their music education in performance or education
I have had students play elite clubs because of their love for music
