My goal for every student is to experience learning their instruments in an environment that is both encouraging and rewarding.

My teaching approach begins by meeting the students where they are in regards to musical capability. We soon push the boundaries of what they think they are capable of and allows them to apply the music theory in real time.

This practice regimen should continue long after our scheduled lessons and should be one of many vital keys to your child's future successes. Read More
