I am a motivated instructor who is extremely passionate about music, learning, and having a great time while doing both! I have taught students ranging from 3 years old to 65 years old. My approach is that we work hard, but have a really fun time accomplishing our goals. I like to engage students quickly by showing them that they can learn to play something on their instrument very quickly, but then we dive in to the theory of what we just played. Read More

No single approach works with every student when teaching drums. There are simply too many styles and methods to choose from. But when working with beginners, I tend to focus mostly on developing a good internal sense of rhythm and good listening skills. Then if the student wishes, we may specialize in classical, jazz, rock, latin, or whatever style the student is interested in. There are many excelent published methods to choose from and I occasionally assign etudes and excersizes of my own. Read More

I have the same approach to teaching beginner and intermediate piano. Again, we learn our notes in five finger position and then we learn to read time signatures, notes in the treble clef, chords, and rhythms, as well as playing complete songs. When teaching piano for beginners I like to pick the leaning material that we'll use based on the individual because we all learn differently and I like to keep it fun so the student stays interested.
