Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
I have my own ProTools recording studio, and I record 10 songs from each book for students to learn to play by ear. I make a CD and give it to the student. The CD holds about 30 tracks on it, the piano tracks and my speaking voice on each track. I speak on the CD gently underneath the piano playing, for example, when there is an interval, I slow things down and the student will hear my voice in the background saying Interval, then the student will hear me play each note of the interval separately.

Instruments: Piano Voice Violin Cello Double Bass Keyboard
I strongly believe in having an open and honest relationship with my student. I think both should know upfront what the expectations should be, such as how long they will practice, what proper progress and growth looks like, as well as what they need from me to help them succeed. More than anything, I want to help my students grow their love for music in any way I can, and that might be different for everyone but that should be the priority. Read More

Instruments: Piano Organ Synthesizer Keyboard
I offer style varieties rhythmically based on both hands to develop a flexible coordinated approach to playing. My experiences have introduced children as early as seven years to keyboards, and I have taken former music students needing to advance into new materials, specifically training both hands for sight reading music charts or playing by ear. My ability to notate music allows teaching students the tools the trade and art of reading, writing with the disciplines of practice needed for any level. Read More
Instruments: Piano
For the beginning, I will start with Hal Leonard brand of music lessons. Although I was taught the ABRSM method of teaching, I understand that there is importance for the student to grasp the basic fundamentals. I will also begin to introduce appropriate music as solo pieces for their first recital performances. I encourage all styles of music and believe that to truly enjoy learning music, one must first understand why they love the music they hear in their everyday life. Read More
Instruments: Piano Organ
Every student learns in their own way, and I try to get that to happen. When the student really learns, they are excited and so am I! It is great to see students progress, and learn more and more. I try to make each lesson and each student an individual, not a mechanical, cookie-cutter process. Read More

When will I start to see results?
Depending on the student, you can see results anywhere from weeks to months to years. Everyone learns at their own pace and learns in different ways. Some students can see major results in a matter of months (these are kids who are logical thinkers). Some others need more time who are creative minds.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Yes, my former piano teacher of 10 years inspired me so much. She was so professional, loving, and strict at the same time. She really taught me how to be a disciplined and committed musician. She was so amazing with all her students in her studio.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I fell in love with piano from a young age, I saw others play piano in school and at other events, and I always thought "I want to do that." I became passionate about piano and composing my own music from a young age.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I most proud of my studies at Berklee College of Music, being mentored in masterclasses at Steinway, performing at Carnegie Hall, and playing gigs in Boston. I'm also proud of creating my own music and being able to share it with the world via YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
During the pandemic of 2020, I started to teach virtually. One of my students from Argentina I taught for a year, and she was a natural pianist. She love the instrument and it was so exciting to see her progress throughout the year. She is now working towards getting awards, special honors, and potentially competitions.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
I think the hardest thing would have to be accuracy as far as speed of notes as well as advance rhythmic concepts. For example, works by famous composer such as Beethoven, Chopin, Liszt, are very difficult, and anything in advanced grades, takes a lot of brain power and dedication to the instrument.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
This all depends on the age of the student. Students 5 to 9 who are in the beginner level should at least practice 15-30 min a day if they want to really improve and move quickly through the grades. Students who are intermediate should practice anywhere from 45 min to 2 hours a day. Advanced students who are really committed to their artistry need 2- 4 hours a day and sometimes more with breaks in between.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
You will simply know when the child is eager to learn and they are excited about it, especially when they play around on the piano and really want to be taught. Age 5-6 is a good age to start beginner and the Faber Primer level.
