Instruments: Piano, Voice, Music, Keyboard

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the students, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. Read More

For all students, beginning or advanced, my first lesson is always a survey of their musical tastes and experience. This is important because it helps to retain motivation and passion, as well as direction on my end, for the techniques that they will learn. I also ask them to play the most difficult piece or riff that they have learned on their own so far. This will give me a good idea of the habits they have developed in their fingers as well as their current stage of growth. Read More

I've been giving lessons since I was in high school, but I was able to expand the instruments I'm able to teach from my college training. I have been teaching with Webster's Community Music School for the past year and a half and I have had great success with teaching young beginners, although I have started older kids and even adults with great success (I just use a different curriculum with older students).
