My teaching experience goes all the way back to when I was in high school.

What keeps one interested in playing music, in the long term, is the ability to realize melodies one hears in one's head. In my experience, this is the most joyous aspect of one's musical practice, and is the underlying goal in my teaching strategy.

Others are muscle and mind building exercises that increase the fluidity of one's motions while sounding their instrument. Read More

To me it is one of the greatest rewards to see my students understand a concept or play a difficult passage. I believe it's important for each student to progress at his or her own pace because everyone has a different mindset.

Setting reasonable goals fuels the students desire to progress and gets them excited to continue learning more. Read More

I was keenly interested in books and literature and this passion led to further interest in composition and verse. At 15, my big sister gave me her used and no-longer-played acoustic guitar and from there I taught myself basic chords, scales and simple songs.
