It is important to pass on the education and experience I received. In my opinions, this is a duty of the artist. So I have always tried to share what has been given to me. I have had both formal and ad hoc students over the years. Although I've taught other subjects, such as theater and computer science, music is my metier, so it is the subject I am most fond of and love to teach the most. Read More

Every student progresses at their own pace. I write out the homework for the week on a piece of paper for both them and the parent to see. When their expectations are written out, it's easier to see how far they've progressed. Most of my lessons start out with asking how their week went and how much practice they were able to get in. We then review the material from the week before and talk about the progress or any difficulties they may have come across during the week. Read More

I have been playing professionally for over 40 years and have taught music for 30.  I enjoy teaching people to play or sing music because it is a gift to be given and received.  I can also assist with orchestration or arranging instruments into a group format for performance.  I can teach anyone with an interest to learn and do so on a regular basis.I have taught country, blues, modern, metal, classical, folk music, jazz, etc. Read More
