I like to start with the basics. Its important to let the student gain confidence in their instrument. So I start with very simple task that would be easy to do while I'm present so if they have any questions I can answer. I also do everything in three's...if we are working on the C scale and we get it correct I like to do it three time straight for memory. Read More

As a student who has struggled with learning disabilities in my own educational career, Im blessed to have the knowledge and capacity to help each of my students find the way they learn best. Every student has their own way of connecting with music. For a beginner, I find it most important to bring this connection to life, and help the student turn it into a passion for music. Once a student truly loves to play, they will work infinitely harder. Read More

As an instructor and musician I have explored a huge variety of different musical styles froma roudn the world, as well as the cognitive fundamentals of learning. I try to preapre my students with learning tools that will allow them to continue improving even after my time as their instructor is over. I focus especially on building an understanding of how and why to acquire strong fundamentals, so that we can collaboratively drive their learning. Read More

I have over 10 years of teaching experience with the last 7 years being full time. I started playing piano when I was 5 so I have over 22 years of playing experience. The number one thing I stress about learning to play the piano (except practice of course!) is that you need to be having fun at all times. Music is supposed to be fun so it’s my job to make sure my students are enjoying each lesson and each time they sit down at their piano. Read More

For beginning students who are children, I typically start with Hal Leonard's Essential Elements, scales, and basic music theory. Once the student has progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals, I will begin to introduce solo repertoire appropriate for their first recital performance. For adults and continuing students, I try to find out what the student is interested in and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and fun, no matter their ability level.

Beginning students will start out with technique practices, while introducing solo literature when appropriate. Technique studies can always be improved and studied, no matter a student's age or proficiency. I try to work within the repertoire a student is interested in at first, then expanding to materials and genres the student may find interesting to help broaden the experience and knowledge a student can gain from our lessons. No matter the age or ability level, I help students understand that each lesson and new idea or piece we learn adds to their experience, and experiences are building blocks for our futures. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
My advice for practicing effectively is to practice practice practice. I know that we might say that, that is a lot to do but once you start practicing and finding your mistake, and going over that one mistake you focused on. You can change it and make it better. I would also advice take advantage of online resources like music theory, utube, social media, etc. A lot of sites may contribute a lot of helpful tips on how to practice more effectively and what's the best way for you to start practicing effectively.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
You as a parent know your child really well, and may know when your child is ready to start for lessons. One of the things that you should notice is when your child knows the difference from left to right. Playing the piano with both hands is an amazing ability to obtain. So therefore you should if your child can recognize the difference. Another way that your child is ready is if your child can count up to 12. The note value on a music staff focuses on 1 count, 2 ,3 and so forth. Knowing that your child is ready to follow these steps is when you know that your child is ready to start lessons.
When will I start to see results?
You would start seeing results when you practice every day that one specific instrument you want to manage your time on. Have your own plan for how long you want to practice and stick with it. Start by looking up notes that you would want to play and then practice them. Another way is to start recording your playing through your device. Find your mistakes and improve upon them. It is never to late to grab an instrument and to start strumming. Finally, you should Mix up the different genres of playing. My mixing the way you play you your brain and muscles to function differently throughout practicing your different genes that you like listening to.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I had a teacher that would inspire me into reading notes, and learning about music theory. My teach would encourage all of us. I would apply what I learned and teach every student in class about how to read the notes and what each note meant. The teacher needed extra support and I was that extra support that I provided for the class. She would also inspire me in never giving up by teaching, One of her inspirations was that she would always be on top of me when reading music notes for guitar and piano.
