I have been teaching private piano and voice lessons to young and adult students for over 18 years. I teach music because I believe all human beings connect to it and feel something overtime they hear music. This motivates me to continue teaching as much as possible. I believe in teaching a diverse number of techniques and genres from Pop to Jazz to classical to my music students to gain a wide variety of techniques and general love for the many styles of music.

For beginning students, I introduce musical theatre and classical repertoire and the fundamentals of music theory. As the student progresses, I include advanced exercises used to strengthen the voice and have them learn various styles of singing based on their interests and career path. Students are expected to vocalize every day on their own and complete any homework or songs before assigned dates. For students interested, I will also enter them into competitions and auditions where they can expand their performance experience. Read More

The second half of the lesson consists of singing songs which the student may choose and some that I may recommend in order to work on specific development of the voice. Read More

I believe that it is truly important for any of my students to enjoy and love the music that they're practicing and learning. Therefore, it is important that I develop a specific teaching plan for each student. I encourage setting goals for each student to track progress and celebrate every accomplishment, making students eager to learn more. I encourage live performance, through either school talent shows, auditions, etc, because it is important for any vocalist to practice performing in front of an audience. Read More
