Instruments: Piano Voice
All children are different and are progressing at their own pace.Most important for me is to see that they enjoy making music at any level. Another important thing for me is to remind my students to practice with a good posture and poise.This will ensure that they look as a performers and enables them to practice and perform for much longer periods of time. I teach my students to be creative during their lessons and home practice,this makes practicing fun and study of music enjoyable and rewarding. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Voice Trumpet Bass Guitar
For all students, I teach them exercises to strenghten their fundamentals and skills in the given instrument, and each lesson we practice the exercises to focus on improving their sound production, pitch finding, placement, and more. We also learn songs that both the student and I choose and prepare for performance (when necessary). Here are the books I work from for each instrument, but please note that I don't necessarily use these for every student, only when appropriate: GUITAR: Mel Bay's Modern Guitar Method (books 1 through 3) VOICE: Master Vocal Exercises by Horatio Connell, and Sightsinging (Hal Leonard) BASS GUITAR: Bass Method, (Hal Leonard, books 1 through 3) TRUMPET: Essential Elements 2000, (Hal Leonard, books 1 through 3) Read More

I am a passionate, young at heart educator who loves teaching all ages of students! If you have the will to learn, I would love to be your coach! I have a Bachelor's Degree in Secondary Choral Education, and spend my days engulfed in choral music playing for numerous choirs at my high school. I have been a private voice/piano instructor for the past 31 consecutive years in my home studio. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
As a teacher, I have been fortunate to teach students ages 4-65 from all backgrounds and skill levels. I began teaching private voice and piano lessons at a music studio while I was in high school. That is where my love of teaching was born and I have made teaching a priority in my life ever since. I have also been fortunate to teach internationally. I spent time teaching English in Uganda, music in India, and have taught ESL in the United States. Read More
Instruments: Voice
I just recently moved to the Greater Phoenix Area. I have a very strong passion for singing and bringing music to others. I have three degrees in opera, but I have worked professionally singing everything from standard ballads to gospel songs. Performing all over the world has given me the opportunity to sing and learn things about other cultures that I would otherwise never have known about. My most recent accomplishment was singing the leading role of Hoffman in the french opera Les contes d'hoffman in Perieuguex France in the summer of 2012. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Trumpet Keyboard Electric Guitar
Nothing is more exciting than seeing one my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. " The slower you go, the faster you'll get there" - John Link Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin
For piano beginners I use the Faber book series. I prefer these books because it gives a mixture of theory and technique that I think is essential to learn at an early stage. For violin beginners I prefer to use the Suzuki Method books. These books are great because they get the student playing quickly, while still introducing the foundations of basic theory for reading music. Beginning guitar is a little more flexible depending on the students goals and the style they would like to learn. Read More
Instruments: Saxophone Clarinet Oboe
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Most of my students just wanted to get a little more knowledge on what they were doing on their instrument. I have gotten many compliments from music teachers because they said they can hear a difference in the students who were taking lessons. Just like any other activity kids move on from music. What I like to stress to any of my students is unlike ballet, cheerleading, football, etc... playing music is something you can do the rest of your life. It doesn't have to be on a professional level. You can play in a community band until you are 80 plus years old. Are you going to be doing ballet, cheerleading or football at 80?
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
The music accomplishment I am most proud of is learning oboe and reed making. I started out as a sax player and didn't start oboe until I was about 22 years old. It was probably the hardest thing I have ever done musically I didn't really see results for a year but my college professor told me to stick with it. He was a wonderful instructor. He explained how when learning a second instrument you progress quickly then plateau for several months because your musical knowledge has caught up to your current technical level. It took me year to find my center of pitch on oboe. Not to mention mastering reed making which is a never ending labor of love. My professor encouraged me to join the college wind ensemble and any band that would tolerate me lol. After retiring from the military and joining a local ensemble made up of school teachers and professional players, I played second oboe. The first rehearsal the conductor asked for a Bb from both of the oboes. We were so in tune the band let out a collective, "Oooohh!" At that moment I knew 16 years of study and performance really paid off.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
When my son Ruben was 7, I took him to the local music store while I was buying reeds. The store owner is a percussionist and had a drum kit set up for kids to bang on to keep them busy. He told Ruben it was okay to play. While Ruben was playing and I was chatting with the store owner he mentioned, "He has a nice touch, most kids come in and bang on the drums. Ruben isn't doing that." I decided to get him lessons with an excellent local drum teacher. Ruben's teacher has commented that he has accomplished things at seven years old that his adult students have trouble with. I believe the instrument chooses you. Kind of like in Harry Potter when he was choosing a wand. When it came to saxophone, it just kind of spoke to me.
