Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet

My teaching style revolves around the students’ needs and desires in the music.

Each student is assessed on what they wish to learn and their own capabilities. I like to give a push into a direction that challenges my students but still allows for them to benefit from and enjoy the music. Read More

Just like in life, sometimes with music all it takes is your teacher saying something a different way or helping you look at the music from a different angle. Read More
