By understanding what the student wants out of the lesson, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. I recently have been teaching elementary general music as well as directing a middle school choir and orchestra. Read More

I have found that a simultaneous combination of book-guided learning and practical application is often most enjoyable for a student (and teacher). Learning the fundamentals is certainly important.

I typically start beginners with the Mel Bay series of guitar instruction books. Read More

I have been teaching drums and music for over 10 years now, and I have truly fallen in love with it.

I believe in building a foundation grounded in technique and relaxation, while also encouraging creativity and self-expression. Read More

I assign homework and you are expected to practice atleast once a week or learning guitar will be harder and more frustrerating. Read More
