First and foremost, Will believes that each student is different. Each student has different priorities and learns differently. Regardless of just starting on the drums as a kid or seeking some fine-tuning as a more seasoned player, Will allows the student to discover and foster their own strengths- it's this confidence that allows the student to dig into their weaknesses in a practical manor without feeling discouraged. Additionally, this allows the student to have specific focus on a topic when practicing on their own time and sets realistic expectations. Read More

I taught my first private lesson my junior year of high school, and never stopped. Throughout college and graduate school I have taught dozens of students of all ages, raging between 5 years old and 50. Private lessons in students homes, my own space, and at several different music schools, including CJC music, and the All Children's art Center in Boonton.

My teaching approach is very relaxed and focused at the same time. I always strive to make every lesson motivating and fun, depending on the level and the interests of each student.
