Any seasoned musician knows that you can play all the "right" notes to a piece of music, and it still might not come out sounding as good as you had hoped.

My goal is to pass my deep love for music on to everyone that I teach. I will work hard for my students, and in return hopefully they will work hard for me.

Valuable life lessons come from playing a music instrument. Read More

From my experience in receiving music lessons when I was younger, I had a difficult time putting forth the time and effort for lessons that were classically run. I had a lot more fun with music when I’d learn at the pace I wanted to learn, and work on pieces I felt most interested in.

During my assistantship at the Lamont School of music, my teaching resided primarily toward college students. However, I am truly passionate towards working with students of all ages. I fully welcome the new challenges each experience presents. I believe every teacher should recall this wisdom from guitarist Andres Segovia: "To teach is to learn twice." Read More

As discussed in "My Methods" I value our time together and want each student to get the most out of each lesson. I work with students to help them learn what they want to. Teaching to me is not a "one size fits all" deal. Different people have different desires and levels they want to get to musically. Some people want to learn music theory and the "why" behind music.
