I enjoy basing my lessons with students off of method books. I find that method books help students to practice during the week and they also help me assign specific exercises. I currently use three different method books depending on the age and personality of the student. I also love to assign 2-3 pieces/songs that are manageable according to the student's level so they develop musicianship skills from their first few lessons. Read More

I have been teaching since 2008. I thoroughly enjoy teaching students of all ages because I can relate to students who are learning and trying to progress in their instrument as I can remember being in their position when I started learning music.

It was then when I realized how much I loved teaching, so much in fact that I resigned from a cushy 9-5 office job to pursue teaching full time. Read More
