Diversity, high-energy, fast-paced, exploratory  I believe teaching music doesn’t just teach music—it teaches us life skills that are applicable to any field and any situation. My teaching philosophy is a mix of many ideas, and I believe it is more successful the more places I "steal" ideas from. As a music teacher at the 21st Century Public Academy, and the 2nd, being my job in the Army as a member of the 44th Army Band. Read More

Instruments: Piano

I have a great rapport with the students because we both generally want to be there.  I have learned a lot about myself over the years about the various ways people learn.  One cannot approach every student with the same program.  Some are more visual and love to read music, some have a great ear and can play back something they only have heard once.  I try to be aware of strengths, and work on the things that need more focus.

I start by gathering information about a student's goals and inspirations, and prior knowledge/experience. From there, we develop a plan for warmup exercises, technical exercises, literature, sight-reading, ear-training and listening excerpts to be studied. I determine whether the student needs to begin learning primarily by ear or using some kind of written notation. We find a schedule that will work with both of us. Most students have a regular weekly time, but some students need a variable time due to their individual schedule so we work that out in advance. Read More
