When I begin with a new student, I generally jam and analyze my student's abilities, skill level, techniques and interests/desires in music styles.

I give all of my students a mixture of technical exercises, repertoire pieces, and creative assignments to keep things interesting and varied.

I have a much heavier focus on songwriting, and composing than most teachers, and I encourage my students to be as creative as possible while giving them the tools to do so effectively and correctly.
