For beginning students, I usually customize the material at the start so it can be more understandable. Some instructor's booklets can be confusing, so I just want to explain is as simply as possible and that may vary from student to student (everyone is different).

Depending on the level of the student, I will work with what they already have and expand based on the genres they want to learn.

I'd explain the blues through terms of the major scale and western music theory, which makes it accessible to students would otherwise have no concept of the genre. Read More

At the University of Memphis, I taught supplementary lessons as well as music theory courses. Read More

Instruments: Violin

My teaching style works with many different personalities and ages. What I found is that it works best with parents and students who are committed and disciplined in their violin practice at home.

I enjoy getting to know each student's learning style and encouraging them to achieve excellence. Read More
