I tailor each lesson to the student; my goal is to find the best way to bring the instrument to the student (as opposed to forcing the student to the instrument). For beginners, we can learn basic beats, basic fills, learn the fundamentals of technique and how to read music. If possible I like to play along on drums or piano to get the feeling of playing with other people. Read More

I enjoy teaching students my craft in percussion whether it is drumset, world or classical genres. I have both experience in Orff and Kodaly methodology. I teach students to listen to each other and to learn and know the music that they play so that they are not playing just notes. They make the music, so what they play is there's to share. Playing the instruments require knowing the instrument that is being played and while they do this, they learn how to sing, and write the music and identify what styles and genres the music is intended.

I have been steadily teaching private lessons since I was at Berklee, nearly 10 years ago. I almost always have taught lessons at my own studio where students come to me because that always seems to be the most conducive environment for learning and getting inspired.

I enjoy teaching because each student has different needs, different interests, and most importantly digest and internalize new information differently. Read More

As I get to know the student more, I develop a lesson plan specific to the student and work on the things that need work but as well as to keep the student motivated by performing and memorizing.
