For young beginners, I make use the method book that is being used at their school as well as supplying materials specifically for their instrument. As the student progresses, he/she will be introduced to solo repertoire as well advance method books for recital and competitive purposes. The objective is keep the student challenged but at the same time making sure the lessons are enjoyable. For intermediate and advanced students, I use the school curriculum at the school they happen to attend to meet the requirements of the music program. Read More

I knew I would enjoy teaching others when I was a member of my high school band's leadership team. As I helped others, I found that I truly enjoyed the brilliant moments of success. Aside from teaching, I still enjoy performing on my instruments (sax, guitar, and piano) and am always looking to take on new students! Read More
Instruments: Saxophone Clarinet
For my beginning students who are children, I typically start with Standard Of Excellence. 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, 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. I also include ear training by having my students play note/ notes after me in a Call and Response maner. Read More

As a product of "the system", I generally teach "the system". By that I mean that in the education system here in Texas has been teaching this same way for years and years. After a year or two learning the fundamentals, scales and phrasing, then one gets to study the Ferling etudes for region band and a few basic solos for solo and ensemble. Depending on what the student wants to learn, I can teach anything they want. Read More

I am a sixth semester student at Berklee College of Music, dual majoring in saxophone performance and jazz composition, and have studied with many inspiring professors as well as learned from many amazing educators. Since entering Berklee I have been able to not only study the material and concepts, but I have also gotten to study professors and how they educate students of all different backgrounds, all different levels of understanding, and how they navigate teaching a class with students who are all at different stages and levels of grasping material.

Instruments: Saxophone
My teaching experiences have come from my time spent playing in a variety of ensembles in the different colleges that I attended. I was often asked to lead groups in rehearsal and this was where my teaching experiences first began. It started with my colleges Big Band and then with a Saxophone Quartet. Being able to lead a group of musicians and helping them get better everyday was the most fulfilling feeling I got during my time in school and pushed me to try my hand at teaching younger students.

Instruments: Drums
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
My John Phillip Souza award. This is because as a senior in High School, we had an award ceremony that I looked not to attend.
I didn't even know that there was a music award nor did I expect anything. I attended & was called up for these two awards, one being the national John Phillip Souza award given to those who are leaders & have shown dedication in the field of high school music participation. Its my favorite award, accolade, or star given to me.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I didn't. However, I had my instructor of drums as well as some individuals at the high school level help me push myself, recognize where my flaws or weakness were, help me overcome the, & be a successful component for a band or ensemble.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
A Christmas party with my family. I was able to sit down, play the instrument with relative ease & I opted to continue down that path. It had made me feel good, I was good at the instrument, & my time of playing sports was coming to an end. It was the perfect timing as an 11 year old, both in the growth of le having the a l
When will I start to see results?
Within the 6 weeks is when you'll see results when a student first starts drums. When someone comes to me with prior knowledge, I see results within the first 3 - 4 weeks. This might not seem like a big deal, but to revamp & change sticking, posture, & bad habits might take more than 15 minutes at a drum set. The same goes for learning the proper ways at first; it might not be the most comfortable, but it will help you prevail after that 1st month of growth.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
While you can start a student at an elementary school age to play the drums, it is best to wait for a student to be around the age of 8 or older to start playing drums. Plenty of drummers started around the age of 4 or 5 & its a case by case basis.
If they are younger, see their interest especially after taking a lesson where they are presented the items that can be deemed boring or lacking in fun. If they are still receptive, they'll have the drive to move forward & take the lessons. Most of my students started between the ages of 4 - 8.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Create a constant routine of practicing. Follow this regimen consistently. Give equal time to each time. When struggling, give extra time to the topic, section, or problem. Consistency as well as independent practice is quintessential to the progressing of a student. Ask for someone such as your parents, significant other, friend etc to help you stay on track if you have trouble getting into a routine.
