Where with someone with experience I would see what they need to work on and go from there. Read More

Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I like to emphasize for younger students, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument.

If a student isn't having fun in their lessons, then I'm not doing my job! Read More

I have been teaching for over 10 years. I have taught many students in multiple instruments and genres.

I encourage my students to develop their art and play live as much as they can.

I break lessons down into technique, theory, and whatever the student is particularly wanting to learn. I particularly like to pull from the Berklee Press or Musician's Institute books, as they are well received. Read More
