I want to build a course that reaches your every desire of whatever musical path you decide to take.

From those two genres I add on additional genres to touch of in the course to make your new found musical ability that mush more unique. Read More

I began teaching Drums at a local Music Store on Saturday mornings while still in College. Teaching helped propel my interest in Drums and Music as I continued my education at College. Most students studied with me for years at at time. I began picking up more and more students at the store until I had a full schedule 3 days a week. My love and dedication to music made teaching and explaining music to others, simple ....and fun. Read More

My method of teaching for beginning students is I try to feel what are the aspirations and goals of the student and try to fit a method that he/she will develop his musical skills and at the same time have fun doing it. I have various book methods I can choose from to apply. For adults, I find out what are the aspirations and what the student is looking for to gain in his lessons. Read More

One of the things I love most about teaching drums is the opportunity to introduce students to a wide range of musical styles and approaches toward music. I believe that exposure to diversity helps students become well-rounded musicians and broadens their appreciation for different types of music and ways of thinking about practicing and performing. I am a patient and encouraging teacher, and pride myself on maintaining a positive and supportive learning environment for my students. Read More

My teaching system is directly related to the student's proficiency level in combination with their musical goals. When it comes to entry level learning, I believe that music is a language, and as such it is very important to develop the ear (call and response, ear Training methods), along with the theory (Technique) in the most organic and natural way. In the other side of the spectrum at the advanced level, I like to personalize the material as well as the musical literature based on the topics, concepts and interests that the student is trying to achieve.

I approach every lesson with every student with a focus on patience, empathy, dedication to excellence for myself and my student, and a big dose of fun! For younger students and for beginners, I spend a good amount of time on laying out the basics of the instrument, the foundational techniques of playing, basic music theory, and discussions that allow the student to tell me what influences them and what they most want to achieve in music.
