Are you ready to push forward in your playing? My teaching method focuses on the fundamental building blocks necessary to gain a true understanding of the guitar (i.e. Theory, Scales, Song Forms, Technique) while learning songs of your choosing to implement those fundamental concepts. ...OR maybe your just starting out and would like to learn a few songs and do some soloing.

Instruments: Piano

For the past 30 years, I have been teaching students of all ages in my home and in their homes. I have had funny twin boys, serious adults who don't really care much for theory and teenage girls. I even was lucky enough to have as a student a young lady who was crowned Miss Colorado. When I began teaching, students always came to my home. There was a time I was teaching 50 students and had to have two separate recitals-it was great! Read More

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet

For beginning students who are children, I start with Rubank's Elementary Method book.  This will provide the student with the basic fundementals.  I will then introduce the student to a variety of solo repertoire for his or her instrument. I try to make my lessons as fun as possible so the child grows up with music as a fun, artistic outlet.  For students who already have knowledge on their instrument or who are adults, I aim to find what the student is interested in, and adjust my instruction accordingly.
