I don't like to rush students because after all, most students just want to learn for fun. Read More

My teaching style is individualized to meet the needs of the students. I like to use a portion of the first lesson to discuss the goals and musical interest of the student regardless of age.

I use Beyer's Elementary Instruction tutor for beginners, another extensively used tutor that is inexpensive and pretty thorough. Bayer is all classicist but very easy to follow.
