For beginning students who are children, I typically start with the lesson books you or I provide, preferably Hal Leonard's Essential Elements. Once the student has progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals, I will begin to introduce solo repertoire appropriate for their first recital performance. For adults, I try to find out what the student is interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and fun, no matter their ability level. Read More

I had been fairly brave helping other students. and even those younger than I, to do things at church or at school.

I don't have many official teaching experiences, except for my student observing classes. For a class we had to drive to some middle school and high school for a year, attend about 4hrs and help the bands in these schools.

I also attended HMK High school and Gillette Middle School, here I was able to work with all instrument players but focus more on music theory. Read More

I feel that it is my job to assess the needs and learning style of a student and adapt what I offer to them and do so by deeply listening and observing what a student can do when we first meet to what I can determine are their interests and goals and what styles or approaches most fire up their creative excitement.

I love seeing my students thrive in their music studies! It is such a rewarding moment when a student realizes that they have the capability to create beautiful art. It is very important to me that students develop skills through their music studies that also assist them in their daily lives, like - perseverance, consistency, creativity, and persistence. Acknowledging students successes can help give the student a desire to continue and progress in their studies. Read More
