My lessons are based on a transfer of enthusiasm. When I get my students to hear what I hear and feel what I feel, there's nothing more rewarding! I pride myself in the fact that ALL my students that started with "package" or "trial" lessons renewed! Their goals are my goals and we work together to achieve them at a pace I can assess by their progress. Again, I don't teach music, I teach how to play the instrument, big difference, greater results! Read More

It's a milestone that can be both thrilling and nerve-wracking, and my goal is to ensure they're well-prepared and confident when the time comes. When it comes to adult students, my teaching philosophy takes a somewhat different route. I place a significant emphasis on getting to know what makes each adult student tick, musically speaking. I find out what styles, genres, or artists ignite their passion for music. Whether they're into classical, rock, jazz, or anything in between, I aim to tailor my instruction to align with their unique interests and preferences. Read More
