Instruments: Drums Latin Percussion Djembe
There's a ton of books about drumset out there. I like to use some of the best ones in my experience that offer us infinite possibilities to create our own individual practice routines. These include: - Stick Control by George Lawrence Stone - Syncopation by Ted Reed - Modern Rudimental Swing Solos by Charley Wilcoxon - The Drummer's Complete Vocabulary As Taught by Alan Dawson More than the books I like to focus on the desire, the flame in the student which drives them to want to play music in the first place... a favorite song or band, and then use these books in order to service that.

Instruments: Drums Mallet Percussion Conga Latin Percussion Music
I like to keep a weekly log in a notebook the student takes home or keeps. I have many books ranging from beginner to advance, for drums, percussion, and piano. Also beginner bass and guitar books. Technique, book work, and song work is how I prefer to split my lesson time. Breaking habits before they become bad ones! Books: The Real Book, Syncopation, Stick Control, etc...I have been teaching at The School of Rock for the past 5 years. Read More
Instruments: Piano Drums Synthesizer Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Conga Latin Percussion
General Method In General, I believe the three foundations of a student's success are 1. Proper Technique (scales, rudiments, etc) 2. Repertoire (memorized pieces) 3. Creativity (improvising, learning by ear) Parents: You MUST encouraging you child to practice or "play". When they practice, be there, let them know you love hearing them play. I can not stress enough how crucial parent participation is. The student needs to practice at least 20 minutes a day up to several hours depending on the age and goal of the student. Read More
Instruments: Drums
I continued teaching in France where I taught privately and at the "Rhythm School" studio. I am truly passionate about teaching not only because I love sharing my knowledge with my students. It also inspires me as a musician and I learn so much from my students and the teaching process . Three of my past students have become successful recognized drummers and I consider this as one of my proudest achievements of my teaching career. Read More
Instruments: Piano Drums
I began teaching back in high school. My teacher at the time was expanding her studio and let me teach some of her beginner students. It was clear early on that one of my strengths as an educator is my ability to explain concepts many different ways. I continued to teach percussion at the University of Michigan, and have maintained an extensive private studio in New York for the past three years. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Bass Guitar Organ Synthesizer Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
For beginner students, I like to use the Faber books or the Thompson method for piano. I also encourage students of all ages to share what they enjoy listening to and incorporate songs they enjoy as early as possible. As students progress I get into more in depth concepts in music theory and improvisation, to provide a foundation in the language of contemporary music. For more advanced students, I try to play another instrument along with them sometimes to provide a taste of what it is like to make music in a group setting. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Bass Guitar Banjo Ukulele
My method is to teach in a way where the student can develop their own style while learning the basics of theory and technique. Depending on the skill level the student is currently comfortable with will determine where we will start. I like to make sure my students understand the first position of the instrument before moving on. We will learn this position by playing songs and developing a unique playing style for the student.
