Instruments: Piano Drums Organ Synthesizer
Progress is made at the student's own pace. I try to set goals that are both far-reaching and realistic. Anything is possible if you don't give up too easily! I've used a variety of different lesson books in the past. It's important to note that the Bastien piano books, as well as the Clark, Faber, and Alfred methods all play to different strengths. Since different students respond better to different methods, I try to incorporate some variety which focuses on several concepts: developing ear-training (i.e. picking up melodies and chords from ear) as well as sight-reading, technique, and choosing interesting repertoire.

For children just beginning their instrument, I teach finger placement and note location on the piano by using a color coding system to use in learning a song from John Thompson's Easy Piano Course. From there i introduce songs that interest them and develop sheet music comprehension, rhythm, finger technique and harmony development at a pace comfortable for your child. For older students, I ask them what their interests in music are. Read More
Instruments: Piano
My goal is always to encourage students through their musical journey by honing in on their strengths while also addressing areas they can improve upon. At each lesson, I make very clear goals for each student to work on for their next meeting with me. I always like to supplement their lesson material with music that speaks to the student's interest, be that something more jazzy or from a pop artist. Read More

What is your dream piece to perform and why?
The Arutunian trumpet concerto is one of my favorite pieces that I always enjoy performing. In my personal opinion this piece is one of the best written pieces for the trumpet. What I mean by this is that there are some pieces that are written for trumpet that the composer may have been thinking about another instrument being able to play it, so the piece may include techniques that are not best suited for the trumpet. However, this piece is perfectly written for the trumpet even though it is not easy.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have a Bachelor's degree in performance and a teaching license in Music: Instrumental Prek-12. I chose the performance degree because I wanted to become a professional musician and I felt that this would present the most challenges and help me improve with my instrument. After this, I decided that I wanted to more know about the pedagogy of the instrument so I began to take music education classes and pursuit a teaching license in instrumental music. I have recently finished all the required classes for this license and I am preparing to take the Praxis exams.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
It is very important to warm up, even more so for the trumpet player. However, I like my students to know and understand the difference between warming up and practicing your technique. The first thing I do is warm up, this should take no longer than 10 minutes. After this, I rest as long as I warmed up. I then practice the first lessons of the Clarke or Arban's book (which contain scales). I will rest again and after this I will practice some of the flexibility and staccato studies of the Arban's book. It is important to mention that in order to make sure that I am resting enough, I will often record everything so that I am encouraged to listen to what I just played. Because resting can be boring, listening to what I just played keeps me entertained and at the same time I don't overwork. After this, I begin to work on the music that I am currently playing. When practicing on new music, I will often work backwards. In other words, I will start working on the end of the piece rather than the beginning. On the music, I will circle all the places that need the most work and I will spend most of the time working on those sections only.
