Instruments: Violin Viola
I began teaching lessons part time five years ago when I was an undergraduate. I have worked with all ages, from young students to teenagers to adult learners. I also have experience coaching small ensembles at summer string camps. I love to give my students opportunities to play music together and for each other. When I was taking lessons as a young student, I found that the community that my teacher fostered at his studio by holding recitals, weekly group classes and holiday events was just as important to my improvement as my one-on-one time with my teacher.

Every new student comes to their first lesson with particular skills and musical interests. My job is to assess the students abilities and lead them down the appropriate paths to achieving their musical goals. My goal is to cultivate musicianship. Students are encouraged to develop technical skills as a means of creative and emotional expression. Sight reading and improvisation are taught simultaneously with music theory and composition. Through individualized lessons and ensemble experience, students are encouraged to reproduce and create music as early as possible. Read More

I am a fun and easy-going instructor and I love working with people. In 2015, I graduated from SUNY Fredonia with a Bachelor of Music degree in Viola Performances. Asides from viola, I also play piano and drums at local churches. I currently teach at Edward R. Murrow High School, so I commute between Brooklyn and Queens and am willing to teach in both areas. Viola and violin are the best instruments I can teach (up to advanced), with cello and bass at a beginner/intermediate level. Read More

For beginning students who are children, I typically start with Hal Leonard's Essential Elements. 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.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
When you first start try to practice 15 minutes each day. Be sure that your instrument is in tune before you start the practice. Do some warm up exercises before you start the main session.
Only practice when you are not tired, you must be relax and have energy. Try to write down your progress. As you get new music write the date and the amount of time spent practicing.
As you get better add more time. Work on a small part of the music until you master that part then move on to the rest of the study.
When will I start to see results?
You should start to see results after the first two weeks. However, you or your child must practice at lease 4 to 5 days for around 15 minutes each day. The more you practice the faster you will learn. Each student is different and have different gifts some students have very good technique but have a hard time staying in tune. Other students have a hard time keeping up with the beet. The trick is to focus on the problem areas.
As we study, I will focus each student to work on the areas and to illuminate the problems that stands in their way of their progress
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I saw a famous violinist perform on T.V. way back in 1983. When I heard the violin for the first time, I knew I had to learn to play the violin even if it was the last thing I did. As a kid I saved up to take private violin lessons with my first private teacher. I practiced every day for many hours and within a year, I was playing at concerts. For me the violin is the interesting instrument with lots of musical styles and possibilities that are able to be performed on this instrument.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I have study violin and so many other instruments at a very advance level for so long that I was hired to be a conductor. I know have my own private and group students and everyone love my teaching style because they are learning things that are simply not available at the public school. I also won conductor of the year award in 2006 in one of the biggest churches in Brooklyn, New York.
I also give additional resources to the students so that they can continue their study beyond the private lesson sessions.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A quick review of last week’s lesson with warm-up exercises. Learning something new and slightly more difficult than the week before. Each new difficult piece should be divided into smaller sections. When each section is mastered the whole piece can be played together. I also like to play along with older recordings by other artist. The idea of playing along it to keep up with the notes and try to make the sound like the recording. This should only be done once you have mastered the piece.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
All Instruments have their own gifts, tones, and capabilities. There are some things that can only be played on specific type of instruments. For that reason at some point you might want to play a piece that can not be performed on your main instrument like the piano or violin; for this reason you might want to learn the instrument that piece was compose for. The good news is that if you understand the basics of music learning additional instrument is much easier than learning your very first instrument. This is why it is possible for many people to play multiple instruments.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
It was a gradual process but to becoming a professional you really need to master your main of instrument and not be afraid to experiment in playing different musical styles . I always loved playing the violin and have always practice and focus on improving my technique. After playing for so many events such as concerts, weddings, and funerals many people started to pay me to teach them how to play. After becoming a teacher of many private students I was ask to conduct a band and later small orchestras.
