I'm a very passionate and motivated instructor who loves working with students and sharing my love of music. I have been raised up all around music. In my school years, I participated in band where I learned the technical aspects of music such as reading and writing notation.

I believe in individualized learning. So each student will receive their own plan for their progression. Some materials I recommend for students are the rubank book for beginner.

One of the best things in the world is to see a student struggle with the material for a little while on to discover that they can actually play what I am asking them to play. To see the student start seeing their talent, to see how far they have come and their love for music. It is one of the best feelings to see this change.

Once they have grasped how the instrument and chords work, we continue on to melodies and simple 3 chord songs. Read More
