No matter the skill level, I like to keep my curriculum concise, applicable, and easy for all students to understand. I begin with a crash course in music fundamentals to give students a classical understanding of their playing, reading, and writing techniques. Next, I teach them scales, chords, and playing techniques that correlate with their level of playing and music comprehension. Once they have mastered said curriculum I teach them songs that they are genuinely interested in. Read More

For as long as I can remember - music has always been an essential part of my life and well-being. In large part, I think this was due to my mother playing beautiful music on the piano, from composers like Beethoven, Rachmaninoff, Mozart, and many other classical and romantic era giants. Then my parents bought me a guitar when I was 7 years old, and I just knew I had to play and learn as much about it as I possibly could. Read More

Everyone learns differently, so I adjust my teaching to every student I take in. However, I strive to help my students master the fundamentals so that they can begin paving their own musical path.

My main teaching method is to encourage persistent practice (especially for beginners) as it will help develop muscle memory in the fingers. Read More

If it seems like it would help I'd move on to the Suzuki method or at least to simple songs and etudes. Read More
