My style is closer to the Russian style than to the American style. This tends to involve more discipline, an emphasis on focus and concentration, and a more direct communicative approach. I don't usually mince words, although I am very supportive and gentle. My students seldom suffer self-confidence problems, because we are always too concerned with improving ourselves. We identify and focus on the task at hand. This is not for everyone, but for those that prefer this style, there is no substitute. Read More

This can only be achieved if there is a certain amount of practicing involved. Read More

I love to see my students face light up and smile when they finally get a pattern on the drums they were having a hard time with. Every student of mine receives a tailor-made curriculum based on their abilities. If there's a performance for the school jazz or orchestra band I can assist with homework. If not I encourage my students to perform in musical programs in and out of school. Read More

I am very flexible with the students I work with. Depending on how you learn best, I will adapt to your needs.

I am also a great transcriber and arranger. With that, I am able to adjust any song to any difficulty for the students I work with. Read More
