My teaching style is just like most I think. I don't rush with the students. Always trying to go slow and make sure the students understands everything. I've gotten pretty good at figuring out when the students get what I'm trying to teach. If I feel like I'm going to fast I'll stop think about what I'm doing and slow down. It's easy to talk to fast and rush as a teacher because I've taught so many students. Read More

Most schools use the Hal Leonard Essential Elements and I tend to focus on this method as supplemental instruction but other methods are fine as well especially if the student is already working through a particular method book. For young students I encourage a mix of formal music instruction with music the student enjoys. Nothing unlocks a love of learning like discovering how your favorite music works! Adult students are welcome to tailor their lessons to their musical goals whether that's learning Bach or Breaking Benjamin! Read More

For all students that are beginners, I will start off by teaching them the important things about the guitar such as the names of the strings, how the guitar works, and how to properly tune. We will go over basic theory at first and then start learning some simple melodies and chord progressions. For students that are more intermediate and want to learn a style of music, I will break down the basic elements of what the guitar incorporates into that style of music. Read More

Instruments: Drums
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Challenge yourself, and keep score. With drums it is a matter of perfecting as well as building stamina and muscle over time. Play an easy song with size C-5 sticks, add a few 16ths here and there on the hi-hat, make it game. You want to be limber, comfortable, familiar and adaptable when playing the drums. Try to play a variety of rhythms, change between them, alternate, collate, change time signature. Develop the basic rudiments of rock and jazz into a fun game when you practice and warm up alone.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Under 5 it can be hard to tell, as drums are a primal attraction of children and incredibly fun. However tapping their feet at a young age is often said to be a tell tale sign of a future drummer; as well as emulating musicians and drummers when seen in real life. Sometimes a toy drumset is a good test: some kids may blow you away with an original rhythm! If you're still unsure, see how long they can keep a rhythm in a basic hand clapping game with them or iphone/tablet synthesizer. Music and electronic technology have diverged into the ultimate child musician identifier.
When will I start to see results?
4-5 weeks.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Professor Paul Davies and Robert Hartwell at Foothill College in Los Altos both fully engulfed my in the academics of music in a way I don't think either one of them will ever realize. The effect they have had on my knowledge of music and discovery of new music was truly profound.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
It chose me to be perfectly honest. I was drumming out 7/4 on the dinner table with no training or lessons. My aunt and uncle would babysit me and take me to their marching band practice and events. The best view of my uncle playing horn would be right next to the tympani and snare in the orchestra pit. At 2 I would kick my crib in time to pink floyd and bebop jazz.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
My songs and my albums.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
My favorite genres to play are rock, metal, jazz fusion and post rock. These are among the most challenging as they are the most demanding both for stamina and innovation. Jazz drums could very well be the most fun kind of music to play, and when combined with your favorite world genres the possibilities are endless. My favorite record to play front to back The Inner Mounting Flame by Mahavishnu Orchestra.
