My approach is both traditional and also contemporary.. I use standard method books that have been around for years. I don't like to generalize on one or two methods.

I teach classical piano but also incorporate contemporary songs usually something that the student may request. Read More

I always stress to my students that practice is important, however, it is also important how you practice. This is something that I take the time to instill in all my students.

I am a kind, patient man who believes that learning to play music is it's own reward. I struggled frequently while I was learning the guitar, and I don't believe that there is a right or wrong pace to learning.
