I've had a lot of opportunities to sort my teaching out. I realize that if the student doesn't get it, it may be that I'm not putting it across effectively. So I had better try to slow things down or speed them up, model rather than explain, or vice versa! And always try smarter before trying harder, even though harder may be the right approach. Because in addition to teaching music I'm teaching approaches to learning. Read More

Over the past 2-3 years, I've had the pleasure of working with many students and helping them find a unique voice.

I do encourage students to ask as many questions as possible, as not only does it keep them constantly learning, but it also allows me to guide them in the best possible manner to achieve their own musical goals and pursuits.

No matter what I'm teaching, my philosophy is that creativity is the most important aspect of music! Art should never seem like a chore, and we do it because it ultimately makes us happy! We practice and struggle because it's a labor of love. So, I always challenge my students to bring their own identity into the songs we practice, to bring emotion into the written notes, and to express themselves! Read More

I started out teaching "house call" style lessons, driving ALL over the area, just to gain students and experience! This was while attending graduate study for Music Education as well. Once I built up a good following, mostly via word-of-mouth, I was able to teach both out of my home (upon purchasing my baby grand piano which is currently in my studio today), and then moving into a shared studio space.
