After my own experience with it as well as teaching it, Suzuki has great techniques and music for getting students experience in sight-reading, ear training, and memorization. With the youngest students I start with the fundamentals such as naming the different parts of the instrument and some basic rules with notes. Acronyms and games are always the best way to memorize the different rules. I write out detailed lessons plans for each individual student, constructed specifically for their learning process.

Since I was a little kid I always wanted to be a teacher. My earliest memory is being 3, sitting at the piano bench, giving my mom a pretend lesson. My teaching experience began seriously in high school, when other kids in my cello section asked me to help them with the orchestra music. When their parents started paying me, they started telling their friends, and things totally took off from there! Read More

I like to keep my teaching style a balance between being strict but also patient when needed and keeping it fun! I like to have open communication with the student or parents of the student to figure out what kind of teaching style they might prefer. If you want to be challenged and pushed, I can provide more strict instruction to make sure your goals are being met. If a student or their parents prefer to take it easy and just have a good time learning a new instrument, I will also be on board with that! Read More

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.
