I have taught private and group lessons for the past ten years and love working with students of all ages and abilities. I like to craft my lessons to the needs and desires of each individual student (and thier parents), resulting in a comprehensive program that not only allows the student to progress technically, but embrace and build their love of music as welll. I can teach in a variety of styles. I also enjoy teaching via a 'comprehensive' methodology, thus enabling my students to not just play the music, but understand it as well. One can easily play the notes of a Bach minuet with enough practice - but to understand the music in its true-form, why it sounds the way it does, etc. is something entirely different. 

I like to first assess what is the primary goal of the student and progress from there. Teaching methods that are too strict or too generic can often leave a lasting impression on a student (and not a good one!) Thus, I attempt to make all students feel comfortable and secure - with an understanding that mistakes are necessary to progress forward.
