I am able to asses the students current level of capability, understanding, and musical goals and tailor a curriculum to suit the specific needs and desires of the student. In terms of younger students who are first discvovering their interest in music, it is important to develop a basic foundation of understanding in terms of reading, writing, and communication with other musicians through the application of time tested teaching methods forcing the student to apply what they have learned in weekly "missions."

My private voice teacher in college was truly an inspiration and expanded my voice. He formed my philosophy that voice study should always begin with the natural voice.

The same concept applies to guitar instruction. Improper guitar technique can cause joint damage over time! Read More
