Instruments: Piano, Cello
I'm a professional and motivated instructor who just graduated from UT Austin and would love to share music with whoever wants to learn. It has been 16 years for playing cello and orchestra whether in school and outside of school, and also for teaching experience. I have been working with several Maestros, including Bion Tsang, Rapheal Bell, Peter Seidenberg, Peter Opie, and Jonathan Spitz, and I had an opportunity to perform in the Taiwan National Concert Hall with Haik Kazazyan, who was the third-place of International Tchaikovsky Violin Competition.

Instruments: Cello
The main aspects of the Suzuki method are the following: * Listening --We must listen (lots) in order to progress. Most people can speak fluently in their native language from years of being immersed in the language. * Positive Environment—Let’s create a positive experience learning cello * Repetition and Accumulation -- We continue to review the pieces helping the student focus on more advanced aspects. I also encourage each student to do a solo recital where students perform the entire Suzuki book from memory when completed. * Learning to Read --I am a strong advocate of note reading, and make it a high priority. * One of my favorite parts of the Suzuki philosophy is that hard work is more valuable then talent.

Instruments: Cello
I began learning cello with the Suzuki method at age five. I believe Suzuki is a great place to start, as it gives learners a chance to practice specific technical and musical skills before moving on to more challenging material. Suzuki also emphasizes listening to professionals perform pieces you're working on, which I believe is important as it allows you to "absorb" good habits. I believe in breaking down complex musical concepts into bite-sized lessons that include repetition and practice to achieve mastery. Read More
Instruments: Cello, Bass Guitar, Double Bass
With the cello and double bass, I use the Suzuki books, along with my own system I've developed. On the bass guitar, I start by focusing on songs that student is already familiar with, and then expand from there. I have all of my students identify songs that they would like to learn on their own, while studying other pieces of music at the same time. I want my students to know how to both read music, and "play by ear." I teach them to really use their ears, to know if they're playing in tune, and if their rhythm and tempo are correct. Read More
