Instruments: Piano Violin Viola
I have been teaching violin and viola for the last six years. My main goal is to make sure that student is having a great time learning how to play an instrument while making sure the student understands good practice habits. I want to make sure that the student has fun in their lessons and I make it my main priority. If the student wants to learn jazz, I am well versed in jazz and can teach jazz. Read More
Instruments: Violin Cello Viola
I started teaching privately in 2004, and have been doing so in either my own studio or in the studios of others ever since.. In 2013, I started contracting with the Anaheim City School District to teach string classes in their after-school music program. Since moving to Texas, I have started orchestra programs at two different schools in Dallas county, while continuing to build my own studio. Whether in a private or group setting, the joy on the students' face is the most powerful motivator and greatest reward I know of. Read More

My teaching style is more hands on approach, I have a lot of opportunities for my students to perform. I believe that actually playing the instrument will make them better players and performers. Even when a student sign up for private lessons, I have opportunities for them to perform in groups. I think that students learn better when they have the chance to perform in a group. I also hold master classes for the students to learn from. Read More

I am a passionate instructor who enjoys working with students of all ages. I started performing, professionally, at a very young age, during my 6 years at the Alabama School of Fine Arts. From there, I attended the Louisiana State University, as a cello performance major and performed with the school symphony, as well as the Alexandria Symphony, the Lake Charles Symphony and local venues. I went on to get my Master's degree at Georgia State University and then returned to Louisiana State University for my final degree in Cello Performance. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Viola
Over my years of teaching, I have developed my own method for beginning students that caters to the individual student's needs and learning styles. Once the student has grasped the basic fundamentals, I start to introduce solo repertoire appropriate to their level, as well as focusing on learning proper technique. I believe that a very important part of my role as teacher is to guide the student on the route that they want to go. Read More
Instruments: Violin Viola
I have learned a lot about myself by studying the masters of music, which inspired me to return the favor in my own instruction. It’s been a gift to witness the same process in my students: finding where your ceiling is and challenging that limitation with the help of your teacher. I always look forward to sharing my vision of music as a therapy for the soul, as a way of appreciating the art of expression, and what that can do for one’s life. Read More
Instruments: Violin Cello Viola
I had around 20 students I taught on a weekly basis ranging from the ages of 4 to 60; the majority being on the younger side. However, I think its never too late to learn an instrument! I am now an Orchestra Director at a local high school and teach privately as well. I love what I do and want to share my passion for music and the pride that comes with the mastery of an instrument with others. Read More

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I had a teacher in high school that inspired me to study music in college. She was an amazing musician but she was also an all-around, kind, passionate, fun individual. She showed me that you could do lots of other things besides playing an instrument or study music. Studying music gives you this opportunity. You can still be a doctor and be a professional musician, you can still be a rock climber and study music in college. Choosing music as a career allowed me to fulfill all of my interests. Aside from being a musician and music teacher, I am also a yoga teacher, a coder, a visual artist. I can do so many different things because music has taught me discipline and determination for my wants and desires.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
First and foremost, self-reflection. Listen to other musicians play what you are practicing and decide that is how you want to sound. Start practicing with a plan and what is expected. Make a checklist and grab a kitchen timer. Lots of time can be wasted in practice by repeating the same thing over and over, to avoid this, choose 5 measures at a time that trouble you and set a timer for five minutes. Once the timer dings move on, it doesn't matter if you solved the problem or not, I promise by spending a focused five minutes on a passage progress has been made. If you have a younger child, make practicing fun. In my lessons, we can learn games to incorporate into practice and even determine ways practicing can be rewarded. Practicing for an hour is unrealistic for a younger student, but practicing for five minutes and then going outside to play and then practicing for another five minutes is much more realistic. Practice is not always fun, but it can be.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If your student expresses interest, they are ready. Lessons can be tailored to whatever the students learning needs are. Age 3 might be too young for an instrument, but it isn't too young for music in general. Find a teacher that will meet your child where they are at and fill their desire to learn music or an instrument. If your child wants to only play Taylor Swift songs, as long as they understand they need to learn the fundamentals first, there is no reason the teacher should deny your child that desire.
When will I start to see results?
You will see results when practicing outside of the lesson takes place on a regular basis. Practice does not make perfect, but practice does make progress. Trust has to be put forth in the teacher, if your teacher asks you to practice one scale for five minutes, ask why and then go and do it. Knowing the reasoning behind why we are practicing can help us understand what we need to do to get the result we are all expecting. patience is key, instruments are extremely difficult, give yourself realistic goals and expectations. No one has ever left their first lesson sounding like a professional.
