My methods vary on the student and subject. Beginning students will typically focus more on technical pieces of music to improve on certain aspects of a few pieces to perform. More advanced students will still practice technical parts of their music, but less time will be spent on it during a lesson. Advanced level students will spend more time on repertoire and performance. The more advanced a student gets, the more I expect them to practice outside of lessons and apply their newly learned technical skills into their music on their own. Read More
Instruments: Cello, Music
I teach from the traditional method. I use the String Builder as it give the student a step by step method on how to learn the notes and how to understand the notes on the page. This method teaches you 2 ideas simultaneously. You read music, and play at the same time. There are many methods of teaching, and I am aware of all of them, but I am very successful with the Traditional method and the String Builder Method Book. Read More

For beginning students who are children, I typically start with fundamentals: rhythm, melody, harmony, and dynamics. Once the student has progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals, I will begin to introduce solo repertoire appropriate for their first recital performance. For adults, I try to find out what the student is interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and fun, no matter their ability level. Read More
Instruments: Guitar, Music, Electric Guitar, Classical Guitar, Acoustic Guitar
I am excited to help you on your musical journey. As a child, I always listened to and wanted to make music. I started my guitar studies as a youth, and quickly moved into traditional classic guitar lessons. In 2014, I started performing regularly as a soloist and in ensembles, began teaching in 2019, and in 2020 I graduated from the University of Washington with a degree in guitar performance, where I studied classic guitar with Michael Partington.

Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Voice, Drums, Organ, Accordion, Recorder, Conga, Music, Keyboard, Djembe, Acoustic Guitar
I always start by meeting the students where they are. There are a few lessons that are somewhat evaluatory for me to understand their capabilities, their goals and their learning styles. From there I work with basics of the importance of practice and things like posture in piano, hand strength in guitar, and vocal warm up in singing. I believe it is important to find what the students are fascinated with musically and build confidence and skill from that point. Read More
