Instruments: Drums Ukulele Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Conga Latin Percussion Music
I've been teaching private percussion lessons for 4 years, I have taught drum set, orchestral percussion, steel pan, and keyboard percussion lessons. I am currently certified to teach K-12 general, instrumental, and vocal music. I have experience teaching a wide array of ages for multiple reasons. Whether you would like help with preparing an audition, prepping for a recital or competition, want to improve on some fundamental things, or just learn an instrument for fun, I am happy to help you with any route you choose to take!

Instruments: Piano Drums Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Keyboard
That causes both sides of the brain to learn together. I do not rely heavily on exercises or drills, but prefer to find pieces that will musically teach the needed techniques. That being said, I do occasionally use portions of training etudes by Czerny, Isidor Philipp, and others as needed. However, I believe that technically problems and needs almost always have musical answers. Again, for percussion, I also focus on slow training, stick control, and rhythmic exercises. Read More
Instruments: Drums
Teaching has always been something that I just simply love to do. There is nothing better than watching a student gradually gain skills, knowledge and success. Teaching students also helps me to become a better musician. Sometimes a student can teach me something about myself either as a teacher, drummer or even as a person. A skill I have learned from my students is to be able to pick up if my teaching methods aren't breaking through to a student. Read More
Instruments: Drums
I love the reward I get from seeing my students progress ! Whether it's getting through a tough snare drum solo , mastering a marching band audition piece or helping them with a cover tune on their drumset ( or even suggesting parts and ideas for an original song ) I believe this promotes confidence in a student's music ability. I've had the good fortune of seeing my students recieve scholarships to college music programs, become 1st chair snare drummers in high school marching bands and even go to the local club to watch their band perform.

Instruments: Drums Orchestral Percussion Conga Latin Percussion
Whether in a group or individually, I teach in a relaxed, interactive, and respectful manner, allowing students to progress at their natural rate and using their and my enthusiasm to propel us, rather than any requirement for content or material to be covered. Lessons become retreats rather than drudgery. As I said above in "Methods", I do not start with books or sheet music. I consider myself a Pied Piper, there to inspire the love of music, love of playing, and love of the many different instruments a drummer and percussionist can play. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Organ Conga Music Keyboard Djembe Acoustic Guitar
Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs.. Read More

Weekly Practice and Reinforcement: Consistent practice is key to musical development. I provide weekly instruction and assignments designed to reinforce concepts covered during lessons and encourage regular engagement with the instrument. This structured approach fosters discipline and helps students develop a strong foundation in drumming. Building Confidence Through Achievement: I believe in setting achievable goals and celebrating successes, no matter how small. Each lesson is designed to build upon the previous one, allowing students to experience a sense of accomplishment and grow in confidence with every step forward. Read More
