Instruments: Voice

I like to think I have a nurturing yet no-nonsense approach to teaching. Most of my students desire to be professional singers, and I intend to help them Reach that goal. It is true that acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a student's desire to progress, however I also believe that pointing out where do students need to improve most is also important to the development of a singer and to the development of a performer.

Instruments: Piano

My style of teaching revolves around a solid foundation in technique and proper ways to practice. This is the hardest part about having music lessons, because its all about muscle memory. I advise learning the basics before jumping straight into learning pieces. It's very important to play the right way, and more importantly, practice the right way. Another thing that I teach is that failure is not bad in itself, but its only part of the process that lets a student know what to work on. Read More

Instruments: Drums Music

Every one of my students begins with a combination of pad work and time behind the set. The first thing I establish is technique as it is the foundation to moving around the set and becoming comfortable. My aim is to have fun, so the first short term goal is to be able to play the fundamental drum beat! We later add more and build upon it. Students typically can play this beat after just a couple of lessons! Read More
