Overview:

Daniel is in his 9th year of teaching music.  He graduated from the University of North Texas, in 2003, and the graduate program at the University of Hawaii, in 2012.  While at the University of North Texas, he earned a Bachelors of Music Education degree with an emphasis on Instrumental Music.  While pursuing his undergraduate degree, he studied Trumpet with Leonard Candellaria and Ishkander Akmahdulin.  He was a member of the concert bands, brass band (under the direction of Dr. Brian Bowman), and the UNT Marching Green Brigade.

After Graduating from UNT in 2003, Daniel was hired for the Midland Independent School District as the assistant band director for Lee Senior High School working with Mr. Randy Storie. His many responsibilities included teaching brass sectionals, assisting the concert and symphonic bands, and teaching beginner brass classes at the junior high's.  In 2007, he moved back to the Dallas area and was hired by the Dallas Independent School District teaching at George W. Truett Elementary School teaching the entire music program including choir, guitar, and general music.

Daniel has just completed his graduate degree from the University of Hawaii in 2012, with a Masters of Music Education degree with emphasis in instrumental music.  While attending the University of Hawaii,  he had the pleasure of working with Dr. Barbara McLain and completing his research study in Music Education.  His Master's Thesis was based on parental involvement and the success of high school band programs in the State of Texas.

Daniel currently holds a Professional Certification through the State of Texas and is certified to teach All-Level Kindergarten through 12th grade music.  He is a member of the Texas Music Educators Association, Texas Bandmasters Association, National Association of Music Education, International Trumpet Guild, and has been nominated three times for the "Who's Who Among American Teachers" award.

METHODS USED

I use many different methods in my lessons in order to make my students successful in their musical career.   Students are assessed of their playing ability during the first lesson.  Students are then provided goals and recommendations for the year.

 

LESSON STYLE

My lesson style is unique.  First thing first is to have fun.  There is no reason you should be taking lessons if you are not having fun playing your instrument.  I try to make my lessons educational and exciting all in one.

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.

Ok

Are you sure that's your only availability? The more availability you easier it will be to arrange a teacher for you.
