I have been playing music my whole life. I began playing piano at six years old, saxophone at ten, bass guitar at thirteen, and guitar at fourteen. Throughout my high school career I played a variety of rock band gigs on guitar, bass, and keyboards; I also played a variety of jazz gigs on saxophone. Currently I am a music student at William Paterson University, and am graduating this May with a degree in Jazz Saxophone Performance. My teaching style varies from student to student based on playing level, musical interests, and personality. I use a mix of method books and aural learning techniques. The student's musical priorities always come first!

I studied education at Montclair State University for 4 years but I have a always been a teacher. From leadership roles in high school to corporate training, I have a talent for being able to boil subjects down to their basics and provide true understanding. My strongest subjects are Math, Music, and Literature. I can also do work in Science, English and Humanities/Social Studies. I teach people to learn and find answers on their own. I guide the student through exercises in any field and try to avoid straight memorization by putting the subject is some kind of context. I keep up with current trends and technology and can use that to aid in relationships and teaching.

I am a recent graduate from Pace University in Pleasantville,NY. I graduated with a Bachelor degree in International Business Management and a minor in Italian studies. Through this education I have learned writing and presentation skills that are useful for today. I have also learned many languages such as Italian, Spanish and Portuguese throughout my years of study and traveling abroad. For seven years now, I have been babysitting for many different children and age groups. While I babysit I usually help them with homework or engage them in some sort of activity depending on the age. The ages range from 6 months to 9 years of age. I love working with children. It was one of my first jobs as a teenager and it is so rewarding to see children learn and thank you for your help. I am available and willing to help your child as much as I can. I have dealt with children who have had learning
