I love teaching any style and genre of music and it is a great joy to be able to play with your students for different occasions! I make sure that all my students have the fundamental technical ability and appropriate reading skills. Depending on their age, experience and the style they want to learn, I build personal curricula for each individual that is challenging yet fun. I believe my experience as a professional musician and my training as an academic in the field of music education will cover the needs of any student no matter their capabilities or level of playing.

Instruments: Drums Latin Percussion

My style is very hands on. We both sit together, either with just a snare, or a whole kit, and work through rudiments and get comfortable with everything drumming! I want my students to be excited that they are working towards being professional, competent and versatile - but, trust me, the whole experience is FUN! To me, nothing is more rewarding than seeing a student really getting it and becoming their own musician! Read More

Instruments: Flute

I studied flute for about a year while playing valve trombone in local Detroit area bands. Mostly I have studied flute through personal study and affiliations with musicians with similar interests (improvisatory music). My formal studies were mainly low brass, then voice (two years private instruction at Wayne State University). I feel that my qualifications pale when compared to learning from "jam session" and playing jobs locally I feel "blessed" being able to share my music and views concerning the arts with friends and students.

Instruments: Piano Organ Music

I believe that every child is born with music talent. You can notice that a child can dance or response to the music you played naturally. Thats all because they are born to be a musician, therefore we should put the utmost effort into educating them. And I believe that the earlier they receive the music education, the better music foundation they will have. Therefore, I hope to create a great music learning experience and offer quality education for my young students. Read More

I also encourage my students to audition for shows and scholarships by providing them with opportunities. Read More

Instruments: Flute Piccolo

I choose the course of study based on the individual student. Beginners usually start in "Flute 101" or the Blocki Method - Book 1. Really young students start on a small, Nuvo flute, to accommodate size, then graduate to a traditional flute. I have a number of games and projects for young beginners. Adult students learn a lot of repertoire and/or work through etude books to improve fundamentals and musical skills. Read More
