Simple songs are introduced, strumming is practiced and up to a dozen chords can be learned in the first three months. After that, the student may choose to go on and learn more about the musical scales and how the guitar relates to the piano, and practice playing more complex songs. When a student reaches this level, it will be time for them to find a more specialized teacher, depending on their genre (heavy metal, jazz, classical). Read More

For beginning students who are children, I start with Hal Leonards Essential Elements (or the Hal Leonard Guitar Method for guitar students) to build a strong foundation in reading music, proper technique, tone production, and fundamental skills. Once students have a solid grasp of the basics, I introduce age-appropriate solo repertoire to develop confidence and prepare them for their first recital performance. For adult learners, I tailor each lesson to their personal goals and musical interestswhether they are brand-new beginners, returning to music, or exploring a specific style. Read More

I strongly believe my parents are responsible for my accomplishments with music. Ive been attending private music lessons from middle school into college. Private lessons have made a huge impact on my life and I want to give the same positive experience to new musicians. I have been teaching private saxophone lessons for 3 years. My lessons are always educational but also very fun for my students! My students learn to focus their attention and learn productive practice methods customized to their own needs. Read More

Every student has a different learning style and learns at their own pace. I myself am a tactile kinesthetic learner and tend to teach this way. For example, I enjoy using colored pencils to highlight articulation and dynamics. If a student is younger, I use stickers to help students keep track of where they are in the piece. I tailor my instruction to what each of my students needs and want to learn. Read More
