My teaching style is geared mainly towards going over fundamentals while finding the students interest in music. I encourage my students to listen to as much music as possible, to explore and find what they really enjoy. Playing along to music,or learning songs the student enjoys is a great way to apply the fundamentals, and make them more enjoyable to master. Read More

I typically begin with rhythm. The best melodies would not be worth anything if they aren't played with rhythm. After a student gains basic familiarity with their instrument I use a metronome (a musician's best and worst friend. Instead of playing traditional exercises, I teach students their favorite songs and techniques typical of their favorite genres. With my understanding of theory I try to incorporate a tiny bit of theory into every lesson to make an initially intimidating subject more accessible. Read More

Because of this, most people had given up or lost patience with him. I met him and instantly was excited because I saw the potential he had! I took the approach of patience and fun because I saw that he needed to have the lesson be interesting in order to pay full attention. I came up with a variety of unique ways we could practice tempo, notation, etc, without getting bored. Read More

My musical journey started at the age of 4 years old. I started on the drums in my father's church. I went on to start playing the keyboard/piano at the age of 6, learning from great musicians along the way as I grew. At the age of 9 I started teaching vocals individually and adult and youth choirs for the next 30 years. Throughout the years while teaching, I continued enhance my performance ability by learning from great and prominent artists like Gospel Music greats like, Twinkie Clark of the Clark Sisters, Richard Smallwood, John P.

Depending on the age and personality, I cater each lesson to the individual. If they are younger students, I'll use Mel Bay or Hal Leonard books, but sometimes I will make a custom book that builds with their development and learning style. I believe reading sheet music is important, but understand that being able to play along with other musicians using ear training and improv skills, as well as reading chord charts, is just as necessary.

I like to use custom lesson plans. I evaluate the student's playing and ask what they want to improve on and/or want to learn. Based off of this, I might use rhythmic study exercises from Ted Reed's "Syncopation" or hand patterns from the book "Stick Control", playing on both a practice pad and the kit. I like to have students play a simple 8th note groove, backbeat on 2 & 4 and incorporate bass drum precision exercises, eventually using different hi hat patterns. Read More
