I have a very personal and relaxed way of teaching that helps each student enjoy and advance on their chosen instrument at their pace. I prefer 60 minute sessions to have the time to fully evaluate and advance from the previous lesson and to move on to new material. I use the student's preferred style of music to teach them how to play, and expand their styles and technique from there. Read More

I teach music as a way of life. To be able to inspire, motivate and enrich a student's life through music has limitless possibilites. Strengthening one's self-esteem and dynamic expression through music can tranform one's life. Everyone has the potential to create. It takes willingness and courage to go beyond the musical note. My commitment as a teacher is to give students the opportunity to express themselves through music in their own unique way. Learning to play a musical instrument can be fun! Read More

Hello! I'm a professional, full-time musician. I studied music and performed through high school and college. Professionally I've been performing for over 30 years, and teaching music privately for over 15 years. I perform primarily in Arizona, but have performed elsewhere in the U.S., and in Mexico as well. As a teacher, my primary goal is to pass on love of music by helping you learn whichever instrument you choose. I'll help you learn ways to strengthen and enhance your skills, and even help you prepare for performance if you wish. Read More
Instruments: Voice
I believe that each students is at a different level so you have to tailor everything based on that. I believe that reading music is extremly important in the development of singing as well as enjoying music. I believe that each student should know key signatures as well as what notes are on and off the staff. For all students I focus on the following: Breath, Correct Vowel Placement. I believe that if you have solid breath foundations then you can produce purer vowels and in turn if you have purer vowels then you have longer lasting and easier breath production. Read More

I have been a music teacher since my college days working with kids in a university program, as well as being a TA and teaching adults. I have had students in my own studio off and on when I haven't been performing or being a music director and elementary school teacher. I try to meet students where they are whether it's a beginner or even someone who considers themselves tone deaf and to encourage them to honestly try, give it a real go. Read More

I do my best to tailor my style to each students specific needs and goals. In general, I am a very laidback and patient teacher. My students recieve clear and achievable goals at the end of each of their lessons to work on while they are practicing during the week. This enables students to be able to really see their own progress as the practice. I also believe in music lessons being an enjoyable experience for students so I include students in making the decision for what pieces they would like to learn. Read More

My approach to teaching is fun and nurturing,making sure students have a clear understanding of the fundamental principles of music,while encouraging individual student's own creativity and aural skills.I always inspire students to enjoy music and their musical instrument whilst developing their discipline to build self-esteem and help them grow socially and academically. During my lessons students work on their sight reading,technique,ear training and,of course I come up with fun musical games for younger beginners. Read More
Instruments: Guitar
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I started liking a lot of the riffs played by bands like Metallica since I was a little kid. I happened to realized the sounds I liked came from a guitar. That's when I decided I wanted to start playing guitar. It took me a while to learn a few songs and play some of those riffs I'm referring to. I didn't really struggle to learn, but it took me time. I happened to play bass for a while, and learned a few songs. However, I would not consider myself a great bass player and there's a lot of techniques I don't really know. That's why guitar is my primary instrument.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I like teaching students the way I learned playing guitar. It is pretty basic, but straight forward. I don't like students to get bored on their first class introducing them to boring stuff. I usually start talking about the guitar itself. I like teaching students the notes of each open string. Then we'll usually jump to learning a basic song. As time goes by we cover main chords and power chords. Then after, we usually go over a few essential scales. I do not like teaching from books; however, if that's the student's preference then I have no problem using a book.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
Practice sessions should always be fun. I try to make an atmosphere where the student can ask questions. I normally like to prepare a piece for the student to learn, then eventually we'll designate some time for the student to ask questions. I like to make sure students know everything they need to know to do their homework. Practice sessions usually end with the student going over the music piece practiced. I like giving feedback on their progress and motivating them to keep working hard. At the end of the day their progress is really what I'm looking to get from every practice session.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I'm into a lot of different music styles. I don't think I would be able to pick one as my favorite. I honestly like to play anything that sounds appealing to me. There's some awesome classical music that's great to play in guitar. Some other songs in different styles like Metal, Rock, instrumental, and other are also great to play. It's not really about the music genre but the feels I get from the songs. I love distortion, but I also love clean sounds. Combining both of them is something I usually incorporate in my playing.
