My teaching style is really based on the individual student. The most important aspect of developing mastery of anything is enjoying what you're doing and different people enjoy different styles of teaching. I tailor my tactics to the student while providing pragmatic and innovative direction for development. I prefer to use the song as the template for development. As discussed before, drilling scales, chords, and cadences can become tedious and boring for students. Read More

I like too see where the study is playing-wise and design a custom learning plan for the student and his/her goals and help them reach their goals quicker with a planned practice schedule. I also start students off with reading which helps them better understand rhythm and being able to read music is a huge plus in todays music world. It also allows the student to get more done from practice sessions in my experience. Read More

My methods are I teach what I can, and everything I can help with a student. I like answering questions as much as music is concern and I love exploring. I teach at a very slowly manner, without any pressure, what the child or student can do. I assess the potential and capacity first and then well start from there until we level up when he/she gets what Im talking about, I give time to the student so he/she wont be pressured and get frustrated.

My teaching style is goal-oriented and centers on positive reinforcement. This should be fun, not a chore. I love creating weekly/monthly/yearly goals so the student has something tangible to work towards. That might be a showcase for parents, a more formal recital, or an audition for a group! Each student brings a unique perspective to the lesson room, which is what makes it so exciting for me. No two students are the same, which mean I can learn something from the student as well.

My methods depend on both the age of the student and the experience. For example, for a beginner student who's a child I have them start working out of one or two beginner books that I like. Once they have a bit of a foundation, I start working on songs with them. Often it's a song of my choosing, but I always am always up for learning a song of my student's choosing (depending on how difficult it is of course). Read More
