Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone Flute Organ
There are several different method books that I like to use with my students based on age, knowledge/experience, and of course if the method book they use is something they will enjoy; it's very difficult if a student doesn't like the book they're using so I try to give them options. For beginners, I like to use John Thompson's Easiest Piano Course or the Schuam method books. For additional practice and work, I like to use Schaum's Fingerpower and have the student write out the notes then recite them aloud while playing the exercise. Read More

I have been teaching on and off since 2010 and now teach almost exclusively from my home studio in Bloomington, IN. I've had the experience of teaching everyone from 4 year olds to advanced adult students and implemented various teaching methods for the many different minds learning styles. I always liked to look at the art of music like learning a language so I have since learned to create individualized lesson plans for my students that gives students plenty time to "speak", that is learning the fundamentals, phrases, and tools to share their personal story and to study the vast pedigree of music that has come before them.

I have studied piano since the age of three, and have performed publicly since the age of eleven. By the age of fourteen, I earned the American College of Musicians National Level performance certificate. Read More

My views on teaching or being an instructor are vast. I evaluate what stage one is at and focus on the easiest ways for a student to understand their instrument and approach the musical side of learning. Every individual is different and their understanding of rhythm, melodies, chord structure, and time signatures can vary even though the fundamental structure of music and theory is relatively the same.

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
When I was growing up mostly of what was on the radio was what would be classified as Pop Country and and Classic Rock. Pop Country never spoke to me because I had a difficult time liking the vocal twang. Classic Rock, however, always seemed to have these sweet riffs. Things that your ears would really gravitate toward and were memorable. It just seemed like it would so much fun to be able to do. On top of that the tone was so varied. You could listen to a song that had a somber and sweet guitar part, or one that was truly gritty and brutal. So the sound was extremely important for me.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I'm really proud to have had the opportunity to acquire the Classical Guitar Graduate Assistantship at Ball State University. I truly learned a lot about how to teach from that opportunity. Likewise, I'm proud of having spent some time in Chicago teaching for Merit School of Music and Sherwood Community Music School. With every new student I had the opportunity to teach I had a new opportunity to learn and improve my approach to each students needs and the way I explain topics. I'm truly grateful for every student I've taught.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I have not had any students that have been awarded special honors or awards. While I have had students that have the potential to achieve those things, I simply haven't been in one place long enough to see them reach that point. Learning an instrument takes time. Additionally, if your goal is only to improve for yourself or just learn a few songs you really enjoy then reaching that level isn't unnecessary. Only a handful of students I've had have wanted to achieve that level of playing. And for them I am certain they will reach that goal.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
I think the hardest thing to master for most people is patience. Even with physical or cognitive hurdles, knowing that you need to patient and not rush the progress is crucial to improvement. If you can stop and recognize that you're just stumbling through a few measures and can work on just that then you're in a much better place than most people who are picking up an instrument. So many people get frustrated because they can't get something and think that playing it quickly will get them to where they want to go. Just remember that patience is key.
