Instruments: Drums
I want to make learning the drums as much fun to the student as possible. If they aren't having fun then I am not doing my job as a teacher. Every students has different inspirations and different passions in music so I make sure to make my lessons specific to each student. Some students want to learn their favorite songs, while others want to learn a specific genre of music. Read More
Instruments: Drums Orchestral Percussion Conga Latin Percussion Djembe
I am friendly, fun, outgoing and encouraging. I will find student strength's, pinpoint and work on any weaknesses, and enjoyably introduce necessary topics in a musically progressive order. I will never yell at or talk down to a student. Any behavioral challenges will be discussed with parents. I do not skip steps. I accept differing techniques of all accomplished drummers and will help the student use the tried-and-true, explore the many variations, and help develop their own style and voice. Read More
Instruments: Drums Music
Because of my own amazing instructors, starting when I was about 12 years old, my knowledge of the instrument spans several different areas. As a jazz drummer, I am able to teach brushes, coordination, as well as styles throughout a wide range of jazz history. In addition, my stage and studio experience as a rock drummer gives me the means to teach that music in an authentic way. Also, what is most important is that the student enjoys learning, and I am especially good at being a patient teacher who also makes the lesson fun! Read More
Instruments: Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Clarinet Drums Synthesizer Conga Latin Percussion Music Keyboard
I enjoy hearing the students natural abilities, understanding what kind of music pours out of them, acknowledge that, and from there we develop it. At the same time, direct the student with technique, theory and any other tools that will facilitate the music they are passionate about. Give the students homework, let them know that there is always another step, to lead by example! As a trumpet player it is very important to establish a healthy routine that will build your tone, endurance that in the end you understand enough so you can teach and always evaluate yourself.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin Cello Viola Drums Bass Guitar
I believe the student is there to find a passion. It is so important to find love for the art, and this is what I try to provide. A lead-by-example approach is the core of what I do. I "draw" the student toward their own voice. It is imperative to help them find their own "style." The greatest musicians are true originals; and so I do not encourage my students to follow in my footsteps, but to blaze their own trails. Read More
