I give my students exercises to help them become accustomed to the different motions and fingerings associated with their instruments. I also encourage my students to practice with and without a metronome to ensure accuracy and to internalize without. I also like to focus on music theory, improvisation, and composition. I believe that understanding the basics of music theory will give students the tools they need to express themselves in a musical setting. Read More

My passion for music comes from childhood, learning the first chords on the guitar with my father. From then on, I began to study classical guitar in conjunction with a repertoire of Brazilian and Latin music. Later I deepened my studies on the 7-string nylon guitar and also on the semi-acoustic guitar, especially in the language of jazz and blues. I completed a bachelor's degree in popular guitar at the most prestigious institution in the city of So Paulo, FASM. Read More

I am very goal oriented in teaching. I use a similar methodology as learning a language. I prefer the Hal Leonard books for beginning students. Some of the major aspects I like to focus on are three areas being 1) Rudiments, Scales, and Chords, 2) Educational books, 3) favorite song repertoire. For students younger than 15, I recommend only 30 minutes unless students are more experienced and very engaged in their instrument. Students older than 16 can take more advantage of a 45 minute or even an hour lesson. Read More

My teaching experience is primarily free lance and unprofessional. In high school, I was delegated the responsibility of teaching all the percussionists in my section the pieces we played. For a short time, I helped my mother (who is a licensed teacher), create a curriculum for teaching English to children online. The rest of my teaching experience in primarily with friends and peers who wanted to learn to play drums or guitar. Read More
