About Charles
I've been at CalArts for five years now, where I am a professor of music theory. (CalArts is also where I got my Master's). I am so very lucky to work with a wonderfully creative and diverse group of students, helping them achieve their artistic and professional goals.

I truly love sharing the gift of music with my students! As a professor of music at CalArts, a PhD candidate at UCLA, and a professional musician for over 20 years, I can help students at any level, studying music theory, counterpoint, composition, arranging and improvisation. I also teach saxophone, flute, clarinet, and piano.
My focus is always to help my students build their skills and confidence, step-by-step. I will tailor your lessons to your needs and your unique way of seeing the world. Above all, I approach every lesson with awareness, patience and respect. I make our lessons fun too!

Charles has been teaching my daughter saxophone and music composition for a few years now. He is very patient, friendly, and knowledgeable. She loves her lessons with him, and has grown so much in her music these past few years. He is a really talented musician, and a wonderful teacher!
Charles was a wonderful role model in his calculus-based AP Physics-C class. He was extremely focused during class and was never hesitant about asking questions. He was most capable in bridging the gap between calculus and physics and transferring what he learned in each class to the other. He was diligent in his solutions to problems and was always willing to try alternate methods. When my students were permitted to group themselves, Charles was in great demand because of his ability to raise his peers to his level, teaching and not telling, how to solve a physics problem.
When Charles graduated high school, he earned the Physics Award and the Math and English Department Awards for Excellence.
Now as a professional tutor, Charles has continued to teach a wide variety of courses from study skills to college level calculus and physics. He is as passionate about teaching now as he was about learning as my student. He teaches each of his students with respect and dignity and high expectations, raising the bar every time he sees them.
I highly recommend Charles.Charles has been working with my two children for a few years now. He's helped them SO MUCH in algebra, geometry, trig and calculus. He's also been very helpful with AP physics and chemistry. He has a very calm nature, and always sets my kids at ease. He also has a way of making them enjoy learning. I highly recommend him to anyone needing help!!
Charles completely turned me around in calculus. I was having serious trouble in AP calculus BC before Charles starting working with me. He showed me really great ways of visualizing the calculus problems, and had a real knack for making really complicated things much for simple to understand. I ended up with a 92% in the class!!
