Throughout the 8 12 years that I have been teaching I have been learning a lot about many different methods and teaching styles. I always had thought that what I was being taught could have been taught in a more natural and more efficient way. I have borrowed many of my ideas from some of the greatest teachers in history and believe the most in the bel canto method created but David Jacobsen who is an alumni of the Curtis Institute of Music, the greatest school of music in the world.

I started playing acoustic folk styles in 1962 and added 60's rock and more as time went on. I joined my first rock band in 1965 and have now played all styles of rock, blues, folk, country, bluegrass, jazz, and contemporary Christian and worship music. I also play and teach bass and other stringed fretted instruments, keyboards, and drums and percussion. I began teaching private music lessons in 1968 and began teaching professionally in 1989 at AZ Bible College. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Classical Guitar
We start with fundamentals of music theory, ear training, and composition. We find the songs and styles you want to learn and then make them make sense, through small assignments, that build into the finished product. If you can see the shapes on the guitar and subdivide the beat into equal parts, we can start to play the tunes you like. I a do not believe in slow progress. i believe you can learn and improve consistently, while having fun. Read More

I feel like I've been a musician my whole life, starting when I was about 8 or 9 years old and singing in my first Barbershop Quartet and later joining the Chorus. My voice has been my main instrument and I have had the pleasure and challenge of singing in choruses and lead roles in musicals and operas, as well as many solos in major choral works, like the Bach Mass and Mozart's Requiem as well as works by Benjamin Britten.

I have been playing music for as long as I can remember and teaching it since high school. In 2012, I graduated from Temple University in Philadelphia, PA with a Bachelors degree in Music Education with a dual focus in Jazz Studies. During that time, I had the chance to perform with artist like Branford Marsalis, Benny Golson, Nicolas Peyton and the renowned Village Vanguard Jazz Orchestra. After graduating, I moved to Arizona to begin working as a band and general music teacher in the Phoenix area. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Viola
I began teaching private lesson while in high school. It was during that time that I developed a love and passion for teaching music. Over the years, I have learned that each student is unique in how they learn and what they need. So I like to help each student learn in ways that are meaningful for them. Usually that means I take slightly different approach to teaching concepts to each student. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I have been a member of the esteemed USAL and Arizona State University chorus and continue to volunteer for the Phoenix symphony and Arizona Opera. Love to perform solo as well as with my students or the local retirement communities, private venues, and am a member of Phoenix piano club. My teaching practice includes piano and theory lessons for ages 6 and up. I also work as an accompanist at the church and an entertainer at the parties and social events. Read More
Instruments: Cello
When will I start to see results?
Results happen very gradually over a long period of time. Sometimes, since we hear ourselves play everyday when practicing, it's difficult to notice improvement over a long period of time, because the progress is so gradual. Because of this, I recommend that the student record a video of themselves playing every once in a while. If you practice consistently over a long period of time, you might be shocked at how much progress you've made when you look back at your videos from the past.
That being said, I think most students can start seeing significant improvements in their playing within 2-3 months! Of course, progress in entirely dependent on practicing effectively, very consistently, over a long period of time. You can see results even sooner if you are motivated to practice really hard.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If your child enjoys playing their instrument and wants to improve, they are ready to start lessons in my opinion. Good practicing and improvement comes when one applies the knowledge they have learned into their playing, and private lessons are the absolute best way to do this. Also, building good technical habits from the beginning is so crucial, and having a private teacher to keep checking on and adjusting the students technique can be so incredibly helpful. Because of this, I believe one should begin lessons as soon as there is a clear motivation to improve, as private lessons are the best way to achieve that improvement.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practice slowly! That's the best piece of advice I have for practicing effectively. Slow practice allows you to focus on the detail of everything you do, from how your bow is working, to left hand intonation, tone production, articulation and more- slow practice enables you to zoom in and work on much more detail than you could at a faster tempo. And slow practice doesn't have to be boring! In fact, I'm a firm believer that practice should never be boring. Slow practice is a chance to explore music up close in personal, and you get to really decide what you want to say with a piece. I also believe that experimentation is so crucial to make good progress in the practice room. You have to try things you haven't tried before every day, always trying to push your limits. You never know if something works for you or not if you haven't tried it, and cello playing is so depende
