My teaching style is very thorough and patient. I welcome mistakes of course! It is not about how often you fall down, but about how you get up again. If you want to work hard, I will work hard as well. My students know the importance of regular practice in order to build dependable muscle memory in their playing. In a lesson we will spend half the amount of time working on technical building exercises and half the time working on repertoire. Read More

This process takes time, but it is the first step in building a competent performer. MY GOALS I always cater to the students tastes while still meeting requirements, if any. I believe that this fosters joy and excitement in music. My goal as a voice teacher not only involves building a good singer, but creating a performer. I make sure that I not only find performing opportunities for my students, but also I create them. Read More

Instruments: Drums

I'm always inspired by the ideas that my students have as well, and I always try to allow time for them to show me any things that they have discovered on the instrument on their own, and to see if we can develop it into something more. I also hope to my students will come away with the ability to see the drumset as not just a rhythmic instrument, but a melodic and harmonic instrument as well. Read More

Singing is about expressing yourself, not about fitting into "molds." I'm interested in helping you find YOUR voice. Because of this, I use a highly individualized method of teaching, adapting my approach based on your wants and needs. If you want to sing classical music, let's sing classical music. If you want to get into pop or rock genres, let's rock out. With this in mind, my number one objective is to help you grow and develop towards your goals in a way that's both healthy and sustainable.

Instruments: Piano

In pretty much all my students' lessons I would include fun improvisation activities starting from the first lesson.I've found that pretty much everyone has the ability to improvise to a certain degree or another and that unlocking this activity early in training creates a sense of " familiarity" with music and the piano right away.I found that it's a wonderful way to explore the shapes and sounds of the piano through the experience of music first rather than the theoretical aspects of it.

Instruments: Drums

When I was 8 years old, my father sat me down at his 1967 Gretsch 4-piece drumset and taught me my first rock beat. Virtually all other rock beats and fills that I have amassed in my 24 years of drumming since then have derived somehow from that initial beat, and from the spark it instilled in me. I'm the type of teacher who knows what most students hope to get out of drum lessons: the ability to jam, solo, and improvise quickly. Read More
