So, I stress this too. When my student reaches a satisfactory level, I invite him or her to participate in a recital. Read More

For young, beginning students, I typically start with teaching basic playing technique and note reading through simple songs, in order to ensure the student has a grasp of the fundamentals of playing and reading.

From this point, I try to incorporate the student's personal musical interests into their lessons, fusing their own interests with methods of further developing their technical capabilities.
