Instruments: Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Clarinet Euphonium French Horn Tuba

It was a great honor. Late into highschool I was accepted at the DCI CADETS for 3rd trumpet part. This is the second best drum corp (at the time) in the world out of over a dozen different division 1 corps. I unfortunately was not able to perform with them, however it was a great honor just being able to be accepted and to practice with them for 4 months in New Jersey. Read More

Instruments: Piano

With each and every one of my students, I try to help them appreciate the music they are playing. I always try to emphasize practicing everyday, paying attention to the rhythm, and sight reading the music. I also make sure to tailor to the student's needs. A comfortable setting is established for them so that they may not feel stressed out and that I am there to always help them out. Read More

I have taught a wide range of ages from 8-75 years old. I am able to teach a wide variety of musical styles, also including music theory, composition and ear training.  If you need help with solo/ensemble music for region or your are just looking to learn guitar for fun, I can help you achieve your goals. I enjoy watching students succeed. My musical styles include, jazz, classical, popular and blues but I am pretty versatile and have the knowledge to teach many styles. Read More

I'm an energetic and passionate music lover with a discipline in drums/percussion. I have over 30 years experience with drumming and playing in all sorts of music situations, including jazz groups, orchestra's, marching band/drumline, etc. I currently play a regular Sunday church gig in Houston and can be heard during the week on a regular basis at Perry's Steakhouse in Baybrook Mall and both Eddie V's locations (west and city centre).

Instruments: Violin Cello Viola Electric Violin Double Bass Music

I only want my students to have a positive experience when leaving our lesson. I am constantly letting them know what they've done well, along with what goals we need to work on. I focus on the sandwich method, which is one positive trait, something to work on, then another positive trait. Everyone is different, so their learning pace is different as well. I do expect them to put at least some effort in at home via practicing (although I know things come up sometimes), otherwise it would be hard to find progress when they haven't practiced what we were working on.

Instruments: Drums

I love teaching so I want my students to have the same love for learning. I convey this to the student by only giving the student what they can handle. I keep it challenging but also fun. I do this by letting the student choose their own music. I always add something fun into each lesson which keeps each student interested. I teach out of many books that give the student knowledge and confidence to play. Read More
