With 14 years of teaching in the public and charter school systems, I am very experienced in determining the learning styles of my students and finding what works best for their musical education. The most important thing is to enjoy learning and performing music. My students have found that the more they learn, the better they get, and the more fun it is to play music! Read More

For the past 30 years, I have been teaching students of all ages in my home and in their homes. I have had funny twin boys, serious adults who don't really care much for theory and teenage girls. I even was lucky enough to have as a student a young lady who was crowned Miss Colorado. When I began teaching, students always came to my home. There was a time I was teaching 50 students and had to have two separate recitals-it was great! Read More

It's my goal to teach in a way that relates to the individual student and their goals. I spend time focusing on at what point each student is, in the accomplishment of their goals. Encouragement and patient accomplishment are important aspects of my lessons. Read More

For beginning students who are children, I start with Rubank's Elementary Method book.  This will provide the student with the basic fundementals.  I will then introduce the student to a variety of solo repertoire for his or her instrument. I try to make my lessons as fun as possible so the child grows up with music as a fun, artistic outlet.  For students who already have knowledge on their instrument or who are adults, I aim to find what the student is interested in, and adjust my instruction accordingly.

Instruments: Guitar

I began teaching music informally around 2010 when some of my friends started becoming more interested in learning music. I remember always playing music around my friends, and some of them would ask questions regarding chords, melodies, and basic music theory. After having failed music theory in high school, I pulled a ‘180’ in college, passing all my music theory courses with 90-100% scores. So, I felt I’d be a trusted candidate to start tutoring classmates and friends in music theory. Read More
