Instruments: Violin Viola Fiddle Music

In my lessons, I balance technique with musicality; though learning the violin requires discipline, I maintain a comfortable, friendly atmosphere while pushing pupils to achieve results. As a teacher I prioritize inspiration while providing structure for growth and flexibility to accommodate individual needs. This means setting realistic goals, regular practice routines, and acknowledging accomplishments, preferably in a recital or performance. I try to pass on my own passion for music while nurturing my students' interests in a safe environment that cultivates growth and progress. Read More

I've been drumming for 15 years now. All the lessons I've had have been through professional instructors. I took lessons from teachers based in St. Louis, New York and Saint Paul. I partook in concert band and Orchestra from elementary to high school. I really love the work of Dave King, a Twin Cities based drummer. I graduated last year with a Bachelors degree in drum performance. I'm always looking to collaborate with other musicians. Read More

For the past decade, I dedicated myself to teaching at the Music Academy in Krakow, where I instructed over 200 students each year.

I emphasize the importance of maintaining a consistent practice schedule for younger students, as it significantly aids their progress and fosters a love for the instrument. I also believe that blending classical and contemporary music enhances students' enjoyment and motivation to practice and learn. Read More

Instruments: Piano Drums Keyboard

When I meet with a student the first thing I try to find out is what they want from music lessons with me. I then assess their ability level and try to create a lesson plan that includes a lot of what they want to learn along with a bit of what I think they need to learn. I like to assign short term goals such as weekly or monthly homework that I can check up on in every lesson. Read More
