My style largely depends on the student and his/her needs and interests. I enjoy using rewards-based encouragement, especially for younger students.

I began teaching drums and percussion around my senior year of high school (1999). For guitar/bass guitar, I began teaching sometime in 2009. I feel very fortunate regarding my teaching experiences.

My approach to teaching is to make sure my students have fun while they're learning and growing. It's important for students to learn to have fun while playing the same scale or rudiment over and over, and I think this is entirely possible!

Setting up realistic goals for them and then helping them achieve them is pertinent to the process. Read More
