Music Lessons in West Austin, TX

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

I don't have just ONE method...because every student has different likes, and different goals, they need personalized lessons. Some enjoy music theory, others prefer to just learn a more basic approach. Since I learned formally (in school/lessons) and informally (by ear, self-taught and playing onstage), I can give students whichever method suits their goals, with as much or as little theory as they are comfortable with. I specialize in playing by ear, which is essential for students who want to play onstage or make music with others, without worrying about sheet music. Read More

I began teaching in my undergraduate years and continued throughout my years in Indiana. I have taken pedagogy class in my graduate studies. Therefore, I can provide anatomical details about the vocal mechanism to help you understand singing in a deeper level. I always have a teaching plan for each of my students so that I keep track of their progress. Also, I often encourage them to listen to different recordings to let the style grow in their pursuit of music. Read More
