My teaching experience started when a good friend introduced me to a family that has two daughters that were interested in learning music. The 11 year old wanted to learn how to play the drum set and the 14 year old was interested in playing the guitar. I found the joy of teaching music to children on these instruments was a very challenging but rewarding experience that lasted for 3 years. I also have also instructed a number of adults to this date how to play the guitar and the drums. Read More

My teaching style is formal, but very friendly. I like to establish a connection with the family and student, making it easy to keep the family updated on the student's progress. I can be somewhat in-formal at times, but only in a way that makes my student most comfortable with me and his or her instrument. I do maintain a regimen, establishing a goal to reach week by week, according to the learning pace of the student. Read More

If you are young(or old) and want to play classical music, then we start with the basics. One of my favorite books to teach from is Alfred's Basics. If you are wanting to be a songwriter and play guitar, I teach basic chords and theory, and songwriting, and we build from there. Checking in is always important and I want to make sure my students are challenged and encouraged, but most of all having fun! Read More

My teaching approach begins by meeting the students where they are in regards to musical capability. We soon push the boundaries of what they think they are capable of and allows them to apply the music theory in real time. A consistent schedule, whether it be during our schedule lesson or a follow up email packet, is the distinctive difference in my lesson plans. This practice regimen should continue long after our scheduled lessons and should be one of many vital keys to your child's future successes. Read More

Here is the basic premise of my teaching style. First I want to know what YOU want to learn. The first thing we do is look at what you already know. This builds self confidence. For a beginner- I teach both chords and scales. Single note playing and basic music theory. For other levels it's really the same structure. I am committed to you learning the kind and style of music you want to learn. Read More

I spend time at the beginning of our first lesson getting to know about you and your goals. Instead of teaching scales and chords alone, I have students learn a song so that I can illustrate how music concepts are applied in context. By assigning content that is aligned with your interests and skill level, we can break down the song we're learning into lessons that encompass technique and theory. Read More
