My focus is for my students to not only understand music, but enjoy it to the fullest extent. For this reason, there is no set structure for all students, but each lesson varies based on the student's needs and wishes.

During the first few lessons, we focus on setting goals and building a roadmap that will enable to the student to reach these milestones as well as allow them to dictate where the lessons go and what individual goals they have set for themselves.

I began teaching students in college, and have consistently taught students of all ages and experience levels. I love being able to help new students along their path to becoming the musician they want to be. I focus my lessons on the students musical interests and apply music theory and proper technique instruction to help them reach their goals. As someone who loves learning themselves, I also love passing knowledge on to new students and instilling a love of learning that will take them to the level of musicianship that they want to achieve.

I am new to teaching, so I take a practical approach to my teaching style by being mindful of each student's personality and strengths, and then build upon a foundation of respect for each other. When a student is eager to learn, that makes my job easier and we can move forward into the next level of mastery. When a student is only somewhat interested, I slow down to help them figure out how to proceed. Read More

Instruments: Accordion

When teaching intermediate students, I like to start them on right hand chord exercises and demonstrate how diminished sevenths and sixths can interplay with the bass left hand. An understanding of the right hand chord structures adds flavor to the left hand bass. It's amazing when the student plays songs that were one finger exercises and advances to the more complex chord structures. I find that most intermediate students never really learn how their classical songs are structured for the bass until they play right hand chords, especially full octave. Read More
