Overview:
I love and live music and I think it's for everyone through healing Energies. I have had students as young as three years old to teach music appreciation and encourage anyone and everyone of any age to get their hands on the piano as it simulates in Orchestra. My passion is for the piano and for it to be facilitated as a tool to represent an orchestra and teach self value and self-worth as a musician. I believe in creating composition, composition through improvisation classical and jazz training as well as rock pop and instrumental. I feel very confident in the fact that I can teach that 3 year old or a full-bodied adult and how to become a virtuoso as I did with one of my students in a matter of six months. I feel it is based upon personal motivation and I strongly encourage that in each and every precious student.
EXPERIENCE
I strongly encourage a great work ethic. Believe in students to open the doors to the potential that is within them to discover the wonderful healing power of music. Through diligence hard work and focus on pure enjoyment I bring my students back to the keyboard several times over a week allowing them to be fully excited about the prospect of the time they would spend on the piano I feel as though what one puts into something one gets out of it and everything goes, in this big wide world on your permanent record. So don't waste time. Let's get started!
METHODS USED
I have been using the Bastien method since I studied it in the Engel School of Music in Orlando since I was six years old. I have been playing original composition since I was 10 and encouraged the pure enjoyment of playing the piano. I have studied the Robert pace method at Rollins College, as well as the Hanon Virtouso Methed. I have studied at a Collegiate level the musical forms a various methods in Electro acoustical music from Paul Reller local in the area as graduate of Eastman, as well as other top and staff of the University of South Florida in Tampa.
LESSON STYLE
I believe a student needs to have a good strong Foundation starting at something is Middle C and breaking themselves of that by branching out with both hands and playing on opposite sides just to show the full capabilities of the pianoforte and they're great and full potential compositional characteristics. My understanding of musical Theory can help you get a grip on the pianoforte for it is Thoroughly extensive and self studied as well as public school-educated and private universities too. To me when a potential musician or any musician sits down to a pianoforte not a single note is wasted.
