If you would rather learn by ear and reading basic chord charts and lead sheets, no problem. Regardless, I like to start with establishing good form and a basic understanding of musical terms. From there, well look at the music that inspires you and craft a strategy to increase your comfort and proficiency in that area. Read More

For teenagers and adults, I find out what the student is interested in learning and how I can best help them reach their goals! Read More

All music is taught through internalization by listening and analyzing and then emulation of what is heard. Read More

Questions are always encouraged, because students deserve respect. They have my complete attention. Older kids are challenged with mastering more complicated fingering and dexterity. Teens cherish independence, so we set larger goals. I'm always telling my students how proud I am of them, because each of them has gained a success. No matter what level they are on, I want my students to come away with a sense of accomplishment that, in turn, feeds their self-worth for a lifetime. Read More
