Music Lessons in Glen Saint Mary, FL

Instruments: Bass Guitar

The methods that shape my teaching are diverse, but at the core is the Dalcroze approach, which transforms music theory into a lived, physical, and intuitive experience. I begin with practical exploration and adapt each lesson to the individual needs, interests, and learning style of every student. By connecting movement, listening, and creativity, this approach keeps students motivated, engaged, and excited about learning. My goal is to help them develop not only skill, but a genuine and lasting love for music. Read More

My teaching style is based on the wants and needs of the individual student. There are some concepts that are universal. There are also instruments that require more strict adherence to certain techniques. (Orchestral string instruments playing classical music is a perfect example.) Lessons can be fun AND educational at the same time. If you have never had that experience then you should sign up and find out. I truly want my students to succeed and I will do everything in my power to help them accomplish that! Read More

I tailor each of my lessons to the needs and desires of each individual. I am fond of using method books such as Hal Leonard's Essential Elements or Bruce Peterson's Standard of Excellence (or, with school children in a band program, whatever their method book may be), but I also like to bring separate handouts or sheets of exercises, drills, and songs that I have created over the years. I want each lesson to be engaging and fulfilling, and for the student to feel as though they can achieve the tasks set before them for each suceeding lesson. Read More
