Music Lessons in Olivia, NC

Instruments: Synthesizer Recorder

The best feeling for me as a teacher is to see students progress and love what they are doing. Every student has to be approached differently and taught in a different manner so they can get the most out of each lesson. My teaching style is all about "slowly but surely". Grasping electronic composing may be a bit hard at the beginning for anyone, however anyone is capable of doing it if they put their mind and effort into it. Read More

I don't have a concrete syllabus or lesson plan, because each student is at a different point of their musicianship. My goal is to challenge the student to where they have to put in effort to improve, but at the same time not overwhelm them so they do not lose interest or become discouraged. However, regardless of their abilities I do have a few common themes I stress in each lesson. Read More

Over the years I have developed my own method for teaching guitar students of different levels. The first step is always to determine the current knowledge and experience so we know where to start.

The more a beginner enjoys playing, the more they will want to learn and practice. Read More

I like to create a relaxed and welcoming environment, and my students have commented on my approachability and my ability to create a nonjudgemental environment. Private lessons should be a place where students feel comfortable experimenting with what they have learned and being open to always learning new things without the fear of making a mistake. I help my students build a strong technical foundation so they have the freedom to express their creativity and play the songs that they have dreamed of playing, without any technical setbacks getting in their way.
