Teaching Philosophy: "I believe that each student has a unique way of learning music and that it is my duty to discover a method that works with them and create a unique and fulfilling music experience. Each student has the right to learn music that they feel passionate about and discover the joy of music through not just classical music but with pop, rock, jazz, or anything else in between. Coupled with a strong foundation in reading music and music theory I believe that any student can develop the same passion that I have for all music."

Tim Flores is working with our 9-year-old son & 11-year-old daughter. He jumped right in as a substitute instructor in a seamless way; quickly understanding & responding to their learning styles, personalities, levels, engaging them, challenging them & quickly guiding their growth. He has a kind, positive vibe as he provides a fun, focused lesson. He often adds an extra little element to keep them engaged & learning such as duets, learning how to give (& receive) constructive feedback from each other, listening activities about classical composers. He teaches them to appreciate where they are & get excited about what is next. He is super organized & follows up each lesson with a lesson plan that is extremely helpful for the my kids (& parents too) to navigate exactly what to work on & how to go about it. Tim clearly cares about his students and helping them both progress and find the joy of music! We are so appreciative that he is working with our children!
