On the other end of things, if they want to learn folk or country, I will usually start with a few basic chords and focus on strum patterns using old Woody Guthrie songs for examples, gradually working up to the more technical aspects of mountain music or blues-based country, again depending on interest. In short, I try to make lessons very self-directed because, in my experience, the more musical decisions a student is able to make in their training, the more invested they tend to feel in the process.

For young beginner students (Ages 3-7) I typically start them with the Music for Little Mozart Series (4 books total). I pair that with fun music games, rhythm practice, listening activities and other misc. activities. At this age it is difficult for them to sit at the piano bench for the whole lesson so we only spend about half the lesson (but split up) at the piano and the other half learning basic music concepts through games.

Hey there, I'm Sky! I play a lot of instruments, compose scores for TV and games, make beats, produce other people's stuff - if music is involved, I tend to be involved.

I picked up teaching during my second year of college with some help from my mother- a long-time piano teacher. During that time I taught several different students ranging from age 6 to adult on various instruments including piano, guitar, and drums.

Additionally, I have experience teaching outside of the music realm having worked as an outdoor educator, camp counselor, and substitute teacher as well as various tutoring sessions throughout my school career.
