Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar Double Bass

I love teaching the individual.  My first instructor wanted to know about me, my likes and my goals, and that is the approach I like to take for each student, whether they want to perform live, or need to prepare for a college audition, or anything in between.  I taught a class of children around the age of 6, and an older class as well for a while at a private school in Arkansas.  It was a joy teaching both age groups.  I was able to infuse theory and appreciation into learning songs that they loved.  Read More

My philosophy of teaching music is that every child and adult can learn to play an instrument. I am passionate about teaching music including all genres of music. I love collaborating with different styles, cross-cultural and groups like the photo of my band students working on our Indigenous music project with a local Native group. I earned my under graduate degree at the College of Performing Arts in Graz, Austria as a flute performance major. Read More

I love seeing that spark that people get in their eye when they pick up a song they love, or get over a plateau. Ive been able to help my students by learning what inspires them. Then I help them reach realistic goals for their skill. By providing a relaxed atmosphere students can let go of the stress of learning and have fun with it instead. Progression comes naturally with time and by setting personal goals and celebrating accomplishments, encourages the desire to go farther. Read More

With every student, I asses the goals of the child before we decide how to move forward. The curriculum for each student will change according to the ability level, practice schedule, and goals of the student. My methods may include purchasing advanced method books or using the student's own method books, I have used several different books and I would use those books as well as my own materials to incorporate a curriculum.
