Instruments: Piano Voice
I believe in keeping the lessons very interactive by making sure that it is not just the student playing/singing. I keep the lesson flowing from one activity, or song, to the next by using a common goal throughout the lesson. I make a goal for each lesson known to the student so that the student can feel successful and accomplished at the end of every lesson. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Electric Violin
I am very patient and encouraging with my students because I know firsthand that playing the violin and piano is extremely difficult. Progress is not only dependent on the student doing their part, but it is also my responsibility to instruct in a way tailored towards each of my student's individual needs. Being able to set short term and long term goals is very helpful especially when learned at a young age. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Clarinet
My teaching style is seasoned but spontaneous. By that I mean that at this point I have a good idea of what works and what doesn't. I have a proven repertoire of exercises and advice that have helped students and will continue to do so. But every student has a unique set of needs, so I am excited to throw away the 'play book' at the first sign that it's not working. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Ukulele Music Keyboard Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I studied music at WPUNJ with a focus on music theory as well as the business side of the music industry. I began teaching in 2006, and it continues to be a wonderful journey. I enjoy inspiring, motivating, and encouraging each student to become acquainted with the instrument so he or she can become more thoroughly skilled. I'm skilled at piano and electronic synthesizers, in which I can teach Classical or Contemporary music. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Ukulele
My gift is understanding concepts and explaining them in a way people can understand (and adapting it to their learning style). I try to combine the best aspects of the instruction I received on piano and guitar, with useful and practical concepts (and styles) I had to seek out on my own. Typically I work out of the Ernie Ball How To Play Guitar books (Phases 1 and 2), while also incorporating popular songs (including songs the student wants to learn, as soon as they are compatible with his/her skill level).

Instruments: Piano Drums Bass Guitar Double Bass Oboe English Horn Music
I always create my own custom lesson plans for my students that are tailored to each student's individual development, needs, and musical taste. A really important starting point for all of students is knowing what kind of music they love. I like to help my students develop a list of "goals", pieces, songs, styles, etc that they want to play and work up to, and I use this to create our lesson plans. Read More

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
It can be very different between different practice sessions. They are more separated than connected. If my schedule leaves me with a lot of free hours, I would practice in a concentrating length. In the situation if I don't have a focused period, I usually break down the hours with a greater frequency, and a shorter duration. This gives me a chance to experience the repertoires that I've been familiarized from outweighing a predictable approach. For the pieces that are not new, I start off the practice from a particular spot, or the spot that I'm troubled with and then move to the other sections. For the pieces that are new, I tend to practice in sequence. But there are still a lot of times that I just pick a random spot to practice, then move to a different places without disposition of bar numbers.
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 music degrees throughout entire academic studies in piano performances. I like to play in concerts, and enjoy preparing the pieces that are going to be performed in the upcoming recitals. Even if I'm majoring in performance, but I'm having an experienced study on music theory and education. The combinative engagement between performance and theoretical focus help me gain a better integrity. Interactions with other musical fellows during rehearsal sessions are fun. Degree of performance is demanding but is worth to pursue.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I like to experience all kinds of new music that are written after 20th century. Recently, what addresses my interest at most is the pieces that are composing for modern ensembles contain various instruments by applying extended techniques. I'll be exited to perform Music for a Summer Evening by George Crumb, la Monde des ronds et des carres (2015) by Misato Mochizuki, One of Us, One of Them (2005) by Ted Hearne, and Traces that Time Leaves on Built Form by Timothy Mccormack.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
To be a computer programmer. Coding is a indelible skill that put people working in industrial jobs. The process of writing code is an interesting incentive, although a lot times people find that are very frustrated. I have never experienced a concentrating study for coding, but those well-known networking sites give me a fair amounts of information to stay in registration as an amateur coder. I like coding, that's fun.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I like to play pieces that are composed during 18th century through 19th century. Stylistically, the
