Instruments: Guitar Drums Music Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I have been teaching guitar and drums since August of 2012. I started by teaching my friend's kids on the drums, ages 5 and 10. I also gave guitar lessons to adults of different ages, ranging from 20s to 80s. This includes a position as a Recreation Instructor for the City of Los Angeles. Music has been a major part of my life since I was a kid, and I would like to share this wonderful art form with anyone willing to learn. Read More
Instruments: Bass Guitar Double Bass
I typically start off by assessing if the student is a beginner, intermediate or advanced. Once the student's skill level has been assessed, a lesson plan will be formulated to best fit their needs. However, for students around beginner level, there is certain mandatory curriculum I teach in order for the student to have a solid fundamental understanding both on the instrument and for music in general. We will mostly focus on technique and theory, performance, as well as more creative and abstract musical aspects. Read More
Instruments: Cello
The cello’s sonorous and vibrant tone make it the most magnificent (razkochen) and lyrical instrument .With its deep and velvet tones the cello is the closest to the human voice instrument, following the inflection of speech and song. That make the cello unique and attempting children and adult to study it. The primary emphasis is on giving students a thorough grounding in the fundamentals of cello technique -- a relaxed, comfortable hand position, correct intonation, bowing, and tone production.

My approach to teaching is very simple. I want my students to be themselves, strive for excellence, become well-rounded drummers, and make drumming a lifelong passion. I have been teaching privately for almost 3 years, and proudly teach all ages and skill levels from beginning to advanced. Teachers can have a profound impact on their students lives. My job is to motivate and inspire students to pursue their goals. I take my work very seriously, and I care about all of my students. Read More
Instruments: Violin Electric Violin
My teaching method is mainly the combination of The Juilliard School of Music and Suzuki Method. Lessons are specifically designed to fit individual students age, background, strength and personality. In my classes, not only students are taught how to play the violin, they are also taught ear training, sight-reading, music theory, and performance skills; Most importantly, students are also taught self-confidence, discipline, appreciation of the arts, and the pride that comes from a job well done.

Instruments: Saxophone Clarinet
However, there is a style that is much more ancient and at the same time current and happening in approach. The music of Australia, Africa, the Americas, South East Asia, and in some cases the folk music of Europe all rely on a tradition of improvisation and general forms that are passed down through the generations and influenced by the environment; so there is no specific composer. I seek to begin a canon of music that is inherent in this particular approach of providing form to the appropriately trained performers; this form is based off of scientific and natural phenomenon that we experience in the regions of the world where circular breathing has been developed: very unique ones at that.

Instruments: Guitar Ukulele Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I love music. I like to teach. So teaching music is natural to me . I got my first guitar for my 11th birthday. I started taking guitar lessons at a music story at age 13 and stopped taking lessons at about age 17. I enrolled in beginning band in 10th grade. A guitar role didn't exist in the program but I asked the band teacher if I could take the class anyway. Read More

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I’m most proud of three major milestones in my career. First, having the privilege of playing for The Sam Morrison Band for 26 years has been an incredible journey. Being part of a band for that long is rare in this industry, and I take great pride in the music we’ve created, the miles we’ve traveled, and the fans we’ve connected with along the way.
Second, winning a Bronze Telly Award in 2009 for my instructional DVD, The School of Hard Rocks, was a huge honor. That project was all about sharing my passion for drumming and helping others grow as musicians, so receiving recognition for it meant a lot to me.
Lastly, having over *25 albums to my credit* is something I’m extremely proud of. Each recording represents countless hours of hard work, creativity, and collaboration, and I’m grateful to have been a part of so many projects over the years. These accomplishments remind me why I fell in love with drumming in the first place, and they continue to fuel my passion for music every day.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My earliest teachers, Rob Heskett and Ted Fulte, were the reason I chose music as a profession. They didn’t just teach me how to play, they made me believe in myself. Their passion for music and dedication to their students had a huge impact on me, and I carry that same philosophy into my own teaching.
Because of them, I understand how powerful a great teacher can be. It’s not just about showing students how to play a beat or read a chart—it’s about inspiring confidence, encouraging growth, and helping them realize their full potential. That’s exactly what I aim to do for every student I teach.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
I always tell my students that consistency is key when it comes to practicing. It’s far better to practice for a short amount of time every day than to cram in an hour-long session once a week. Practicing this way is much like studying for a test—if you try to learn everything in one long session, you won’t retain nearly as much as you would by spreading it out over time.
Daily practice, even if it’s just 10–20 minutes, helps build muscle memory, improve coordination, and reinforce concepts in a way that sticks. It keeps your hands and feet moving, your mind engaged, and your progress steady. When you practice every day, you’re constantly reinforcing what you’ve learned, making it easier to build on your skills instead of feeling like you’re starting over every time you sit down at the kit.
Drumming is all about repetition and control, and regular, focused practice, even in small doses, will lead to far better results than a single long session once a week. The key is quality over quantity, staying consistent, and making sure you’re always working on something with purpose.
