    Private General Music Lessons

    San Jose, CA

    Through my own experiences as both a student and a teacher, it has become apparent to me that many times when a student is having difficulty understanding a new concept, it is due to the unawareness of the instructor, not the student. Many times the instructor has assumptions and pieces of knowledge…

    Private Music Performance Lessons

    Los Gatos, CA

    I believe that one of the primary goals of teaching should be for the student to be able to teach themselves. After all, I only see you once a week, but you have the whole rest of the time to keep learning on your own! I want my students to be able to troubleshoot and problem solve so that practice time…
