Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Trumpet Keyboard Electric Guitar
Nothing is more exciting than seeing one my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. " The slower you go, the faster you'll get there" - John Link Read More

Most of my students (who don't already know) start off with basic theory (Major Scale & Major and Minor Chord Formulas). Whatever their ultimate goal for learning would determine where I would take it from there. If your goal is to play one song for your significant other we can do just that. If your goal is to perform we can cater to that as well. Maybe you're goal is to learn enough to write your own songs. Read More

Hello! I'm a professional, full-time musician. I studied music and performed through high school and college. Professionally I've been performing for over 30 years, and teaching music privately for over 15 years. I perform primarily in Arizona, but have performed elsewhere in the U.S., and in Mexico as well. As a teacher, my primary goal is to pass on love of music by helping you learn whichever instrument you choose. I'll help you learn ways to strengthen and enhance your skills, and even help you prepare for performance if you wish. Read More

I love working with other artist and growing professionally. One of the great things about guitar is that their is always a new chord to learn. I have played gigs all over Kansas City, and at many Churches in the area. I have found some of the most humble, genuine people who just blow your mind on stage. I'm thankful for those people in my life, and look forward to helping others as I have been helped. Read More

I studied music with the intention to be the teacher I wanted as a youth. I am kind, patient, and creative. I have perfected a process to where 30 minutes of conceptualization matched with strategic practice, will help you get much closer to your goal, in half the time. why should it take years to master an instrument? The traditional approaches used are good, but people desire to make gains quickly. Read More

I love to share my passion for music with every student and encourage them to enjoy playing their chosen instrument. I am also involved in reforming music education by writing methods and curriculum which make music fun, accessible and relevant to all ages. Read More

The first time I taught I was about 15-years-old and it ignited a passion for sharing my musical experiences with others! I started teaching an 8-year-old and from there had the opportunity to teach people from all over the world! I've taught people from places like Tonga, Ghana, England, Wales, and China. My students have not only become better at guitar but had a great time while doing it! I've found it works best to teach the foundational skills using the students' favorite genre of music. Read More
Instruments: Flute Piccolo
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My aunt that I lived with in California for a few years had an old flute that she let me use for band in 3rd grade. She was in high school at the time, and was an amazing flautist who I always looked up to. She was the reason I started flute in the first place. Since then, I have had several role models throughout middle and high school as well as college. I feel like I was always under someone's wing, and that made all the difference.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
The old adage, "Practice makes perfect" is truly an understatement, which many students discount throughout their musical tutelage. As a teenager taking private lessons and maintaining first chair in a symphonic band, I hated to practice, but knew that was the only way I would grow and hone my skills. Even if a student just plays a few scales and/or a song from their folder for 15 minutes a day, it's so much better than not taking the instrument out of the case at all.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If your child is interested in learning an instrument, it's worth getting them lessons sooner rather than later, at least to see if it's really what they want. I lived in southern California at the start of my 3rd grade year, and they started teaching students on instruments in that grade. I started on the flute and fell in love with it. After a few years my family moved us back to Indiana, and they didn't begin any kind of instrumental instruction until middle school, which was the 6th grade. I was very lucky to have started early because it gave me experience. I am an advocate of always learning when there is an interest, not based on school criteria.
When will I start to see results?
I wish I had a crystal ball so I could tell you when you would see tangible results. Unfortunately, that's not how it works. There are students who are very quick learners and move through lessons without a hitch. But that is not always the case. Everyone learns at their own speed. If I see potential and to keep working, I will definitely tell you that your child is progressing in the right direction. Alternatively, if results are not coming at an average pace, or if the student is struggling, I would want to meet with you to evaluate their course and see if there are any alternative options. What I mean by this is the flute may not be the right instrument for them, but another instrument could possibly be a great fit. I would always take the time to work thoroughly with the student to find out their best fit.
