Instruments: Violin
I have been teaching for almost 20 years and have taught people as young as four years old to amateur adults, as well as from beginners to highly advanced pre-conservatory students, and people from all different backgrounds. Music is such a personal journey for each person, and my teaching philosophy is centered around what the student needs and wants. My ideal student is one who shows a daily devotion to the strengthening of necessary muscle groups, to students who are eager to learn and to try new things, and students who are motivated to accomplish goals that we set together!

My music pedagogy is influenced by Zoltan Kodaly, mile Jaques-Dalcroze, Edwin Gordon, and Carl Orff. For teaching violin, while I employ elements of the Suzuki Method, Strictly Strings, and Metodo Nicolo Violin to instill discipline and establish ,precision, I set up a lively, interdisciplinary, and creative environment by incorporating calisthenics, games, dancing, singing, and storytelling to encourage versatility and innovation.

I started teaching about 3 years ago, and have been consistently going to various students' homes for lessons, voice and violin alike. I have worked with all ages, from 5 years old to over 60 years old. Making sure my students constantly practice is definitely one of my key points I focus on. I push them to take on challenges they thought might not have been possible for them to achieve. I love to see their growth, week after week. Read More

I have been a musician for over 35 years. I have played all over the united states for concerts, different private occasions, weddings, birthday parties, and funerals . I have also been a music teacher for over 15 years and my students love my teaching style. When I was young I had the best private music teachers in New York that have pass on the knowledge and tradition of good music habits. My role and responsibility is to pass on this knowledge to those that want to be the best musicians in their area. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin
When I think of music, I always think of the quote: "Where words fail, music speaks," by Hans Christian Anderson. When I am teaching, nothing means more to me than seeing one of my students who was shy and not confident with themselves grow into a confident and enthusiastic person, both with music and in their life. I believe it's important to make sure this happens by recognizing and acknowledging that every student progresses at their own pace, has different needs, and has a different personality. Read More

Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Not at all! I was motivated to learn violin after my older sister started lessons as a child, but beyond that none of my parents, grandparents, or extended family played music. I firmly believe music is not hereditary, but it can help motivate students to learn if someone close to them plays music. Long after my sister stopped playing violin, I continued on to become a professional.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I never wanted to learn the viola, but one semester in college, I was assigned to play the viola part in a Piano Quintet. I had to learn Alto Clef, and adjust to the bigger size of the instrument. But I am glad that I did because it helped me be a better violinist, and I loved the deeper, darker register of the viola!
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have a Bachelor's and Master's Degree in Violin Performance. As a young man, I chose this degree because I couldn't imagine myself in any other field. Through studying music, I found myself. I wouldn't be the man I am today otherwise.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I first heard Ralph Vaughan Williams "Lark Ascending" on the radio while driving home from High School. I had to pull over to wipe the tears from my eyes. Ever since, the piece has represented everything I love about music. I would feel honored to perform it and share its tenderness with an audience.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
This can vary for each child, but here are some signs to look for:
1) If they ask to start lessons, they are ready.
2) If they can read and write, they are ready.
3) If they enjoy singing and dancing, they are ready.
Any child can learn a musical instrument!
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I always start with my warm-up scale routine. I may vary it slightly, but I find starting with scales and exercises helps my body open up to playing and puts me in a good headspace. The consistency and familiarity are comforting for me and help me feel confident to practice harder things afterward. Then I move to my pieces: I like to start with something easier, but if I have less time I try to prioritize whatever is most important or will take the most time to learn.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Form a regular practice routine. This can mean many different things: some musicians find it helpful to practice at the same time of day, or practice things in the same order. It is important to always tune your instrument beforehand. And most of all, make sure you enjoy what you do! Even if it is challenging and often tedious, there is a joy in learning the craft of music. Find it in the repetitions, the metronome, the learning process.
