Instruments: Guitar Voice
I am trained in Music Learning Theory, which promotes the building of the foundational aural and oral music skills which lead to music literacy. For young students, this may look like playing music games and echoing tonal rhythm patterns to help develop a vocabulary. For older voice lesson students, activities based in Music Learning Theory will help build fluency and confidence when learning new solo repertoire. For beginning guitar students, I use Music Will methods to teach chord structures and practice techniques. Read More

I'm a positive and encouraging teacher. When I've worked with children and with special needs high school students, I have always tried to be supportive and positive rather than negative as my way of teaching lessons or guiding them. When it comes to teaching voice and guitar, I'm the same way. I want to bring out the best possible singer or guitarist in my student, and so my approach is a totally supportive one, and I bring a lot of enthusiasm to my lessons. Read More
Instruments: Voice
A voice lesson to me to should be easygoing and open, while having a task to accomplish. I encourage my students to enter my studio with an open mind and feel free to explore artistically. We set goals together and progress vocally with each song. I have an extensive library of music as well which my students are free to use to find new material. It's very rewarding to guide a student along their journey to discovering their voice! Read More

For the past 13 years I've been teaching private lessons in my studio as well as at students homes. I encourage regular practice on a consistent schedule especially for younger students, as it tends to help them progress and gain a passion for the instrument. In my school-aged students, I implement the NYS Common Core curriculum into lessons to ensure they are in alignment with learning vocabulary as well as critical thinking of music. Read More

My teaching experience dates back to my high school days, as I rose to become section leader of the clarinet section in band and section leader of the alto section in choir. Since then, I have been teaching private lessons to students of all different ages and skill levels, as well as individuals with disabilities. Encouraging practice schedules and routine is something I like to emphasize in younger students. I aim to bring my students individual musical interests into our class as that tends to keep them more engaged. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I encourage parents to teach their children music from young age. Most of my students are kids from age 5-13, level starting from novice to intermediate. I have been practicing tutoring piano for 5 years and voice for 3 years. My teaching style not only includes standard piano playing skills, but also sheet music reading, musical hearing, and proper playing techniques. In regards to voice lessons, I am strongly convinced that knowing musical theory basics significantly improves understanding of vocal basics. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
I encourage everyday practice to achieve proper awareness of the technique. I always ask students to be able to feel more than think, because music is more a related to emotions than thoughts. I recommend to set up a practice time everyday, at an hour that is more comfortable for the student. Before start practicing, I advice to set up goals for that practice, meaning, what do you wanna accomplish during that session. This can be simple as "I wanna feel my breath." This goals have to being positive and directed to your main goal. Be able to recreate the feeling felt during the lesson and not the sound that was created. I recommend to record in a notebook what felt good about rhe practice session and what went wrong and did not feel good.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I come from a music family based of ear musicians. Everyone in my family plays the guitar and sings. At every family party, there is always the time to play the guitar and sing traditional Ecuadorian music. I decided to study voice when I was 13 years old, even though I had being studing music since I was 4 years old. I felt in love with the art of singing and performing in front of a big audience. I always wanted to communicate with people through music and with my singing I am able to transport people into a different place where a story is being told and is based on their own imagination.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I come from a music family so music was always around me when I was growing up. Everyone in my father's side of thr family are musicians and they all sing and play the guitar but none of them are professional musicians. My parents saw that I had music attitudes since I was little so they put me into a conservatory and see if I'll develop this passion. I loved music and the experience that I acquired at the conservatory was amazing. I was able to connect with people in different levels and have fun makong music. I decided to continue my career as a professional musician when I was 15 years old. Since that year I decided to be more serious about it and study hard to accomplish more goals and objectives. My decision hasn't change since then and I'm proud to say that I chose the best profession because is who I am.
