Adults have a very good hobby for the rest of their life, or a side business. Read More

I have taught in music schools and studios since 2006 in the Philadelphia area, Northern New Jersey, and South Florida. I have instructed and band directed both privately and in a classroom setting for all ages and abilities. I have the ability to accurately asses where the student is at both within their musical mindset and level of development and keep the student interested as well as challenging them to grow utilizing a combination of an action based strategy, positive reinforcement, musical perspective and realization techniques, and WORK both in the lesson and at home.

I encourage independent learning and going beyond the lesson. IF A STUDENT ONLY IS PRACTICING WHILE IN THE LESSON, WE CANNOT ADVANCE AS QUICKLY AS I PLAN. This will result in repeating lessons, which I avoid at all costs. Read More
