For children I like to encourage enjoyment with the guitar so I make sure that there is a growth in technique and a growth of passion and excitement. For adults I really like to know what the student is interested in and I propose songs/techniques relating to or around the subject matter. My number one goal is to make sure that you can be able to express yourself musically! : ) Read More
Instruments: Piano, Saxophone, Music
It is to connect the unsaid messages by the composer through musical notes, and one must go beyond the surface of mere notes to fully decipher (or even sublime) the artistic intents. Then, one must learn how to be a good storyteller, first in a spoken language, then in songs, and lastly through the instruments. I hold a Doctorate in Applied Mathematics from the New Jersey Institute of Technology, a Master's from NYU, and two Bachelor's degrees from the University of Southern California in Mathematics and Economics.

Instruments: Piano
Beginners are mostly taught with alfred lesson books and learning how to position themselves and where the notes on the piano are first. I usually takes time after a few lesson to give them a chart to understand how to read notes, along with flashcards to study at home too.

As far as more advanced students, I pick up where they are currently at and ask what they do know to see what pieces are best and what techniques need improvement. Read More

After I feel my students have progressed with fundamentals, I introduce solo material on a need basis. Read More

My teaching experience dates back to my college days, as I began teaching private lessons part time 18 years ago, and have been consistently teaching students in my home studio for the last 5 years. Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I like to emphasize for younger students, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument. I've also found that a combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy the piano and motivate them to practice and continue to learn. Read More
