Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet
I am an experienced woodwind teacher and in the past seven years I have helped many students with their school music, audition materials, and/or music for pure enjoyment. I hold both my bachelor and Master's degree in music education and I've had many years of band teaching experience. I have been the member of several local symphonic band and pit orchestra of Long Island, NY region until 2011. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I am a motivated and adaptable instructor, with patience to students. Since I had been playing piano accompanying at Peabody Preparatory for three years, I had observed multiple teaching styles with different instructors ( includes private lessons and group classes). The two most important things I found out is to help students explore their love in music and let them enjoy when they are playing their instruments. Also, setting goals and help them achieve their goals is an efficient way for learning piano. Read More
Instruments: Piano
My Teaching Experience: My teaching journey began during my college years, when I started giving private lessons to students of various ages and skill levels. Since then, Ive taught consistently in my home studio, as well as in universities and private schools. I work with each student individually, tailoring my approach based on their personality, goals, and musical interests. For younger students, I emphasize the importance of regular practice and a consistent routine, which helps build both skill and a lifelong appreciation for the piano. Read More

My music teaching experience is 4 years at Washington Japanese school and Playtime Arts Academy. Although my experience is not long, I am very good at motivating my students to practice piano. I cherish who they are and each student's personality. I choose not only classical pieces, but also Jazz, pops, ragtime and etc. for students to enjoy their lessons. Here is the testimonial from the mother of my students, 4 brothers. "Thank you so much for your excellent teaching of the boys. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice
I have taught dozens of piano and voice students of a wide array of ages and abilities all over the DMV for the past three years. Some of my favorite teaching moments have been to see my students achieve their goals, and I help students accomplish them by encouraging a regular practice schedule as well as to have patience. In college and graduate school, I took courses in vocal pedagogy, choral conducting, acting and stage direction in both the opera and musical theater departments, as well as music theory, history, ear training, and diction classes for French, German, Italian, and English.

I started to learn piano at 6 and it became my soul mate of my life. I just graduated from Peabody Institute of Johns Hopkins University in Graduate Performance Diploma in piano performance major. During the past year, I won the full assistantship to be as a full-time teaching assistant in keyboard skill for non-piano majors. I teach undergrad students. There I met all kind of students in different majors with different piano levels from beginners to advanced players. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone Flute Recorder Piccolo Music Keyboard
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
Tokyo Japan because that's where the international beatbox and loop station communities' Headquarters have recently relocated to!
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Teaching and therapist!
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Singing, rapping, and playing Drill and Riddim onto my loop station are my favorite.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
Traverse flute was always my first, because my childhood church teacher introduced the world flute aka "recorder" to us.
I started watching beatbox and tabletop live looping videos in 2018 and instantly told myself "I need to take all Vocals seriously".
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I chose a Bachelor of Arts in Music because I knew as far back as high school that I would be a Musician in some capacity.
I chose a Masters in Education and Leadership because I also knew in my high school time that I wanted to teach in all capacities.
Mix those 2 together and you get my dream career of Music and Education!
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I use Alfred, Hal Leonard, YouTube, Spotify, IMSLP, and other sheet music I find on the internet. I generally require a well-rounded approach of aural mastery besides relying on sheet music.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
In sequential order:
1) Introductory SEL / socio-emotional learning / check-in to see if everything is alright.
2) Any questions/comments/concerns since our prior lesson.
3) Demonstrate homework assignment from prior lesson and I clarify musical misunderstandings, reteach, praise the positive, etc.
4) I introduce new objective/skill(s) with ongoing checks for understanding / asking questions.
5) Assign new homework for next time.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
I think the hardest thing to master on traverse flute is multitasking big breath support with finger / technique control. Also, it is more difficult to add expressive characteristics besides the technical aspects.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I was very lucky to have highly effective musical instructors from K-12. They demonstrated not only how to perform music, but how to effectively teach it to others.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am most proud of getting to network with influential musicians across the globe from over 20 different countries. This includes attending international, national, state, and regional music performance and education conventions.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
No, but eternal shoutout to my parents for (still) supporting me in my musical and educational endeavors!
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I chose the traverse flute because my incoming middle school band would not accept world flute / recorder, so the band director suggested I come into his office one day and try the flute. It was one of the best decisions of my life.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
I firmly believe in Quality over quantity! Use a metronome and tuner app to be most effective, in my opinion. It’s never a race, begin slowly.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
1) Is your child a good listener?
2) Will your child complete their assigned homework?
3) Are your child’s needs outside of music being met, so they can fully focus during the lesson?
When will I start to see results?
Some learners demonstrate results by the end of the first lesson, some demonstrate results after a few lessons. It depends on the objective taught, such as how to place fingers versus performing a full scale up and down.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
High school immediately!
