Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Bass Guitar Double Bass

I began teaching voice 6 years ago, while still in my own undergraduate studies. Teaching bass and piano quickly followed once I realized how much I enjoyed the teaching side of music. I learned to love music at an early age, which got me into taking lessons, and eventually learning the process that is required to move a student forward. Slow and steady progress in all areas of music is the way I have learned, and is the way that I teach. Read More

My experience with music is through my life experience in all the facets of music I've been involved with. I have been teaching for over 30 years and nothing is more rewarding for me than to have a student have the "light going on moment" that I've seen on more than one occasion. I believe if a student is bored then they have the wrong instructor, and I pride myself on not allowing that to happen. Read More

My method of teaching involves a musically comprehensive approach. Through practice in rhythm, harmony, melody, theory and ear training, my players become well rounded musicians. The goal is to be able to have an intelligent musical conversation with your instrument, and to know how to play whatever you want to play. In my lessons reading sheet music is optional, but not required. I want my students to know that there is more to playing than just what's in the ink. Read More

I emphasize positive, fun, joyful learning and I use multimedia to make the lesson more colorful and modern. I have one foot in the traditional "Old School" and one in cutting edge learning techniques. I completely tailor each person's lesson plans to emphasize the strengths of the student. Some people learn through hearing, while others need to learn through touch and coordination. Those with shorter attention spans enjoy faster rotation through activities, which is effective for children as young as three years of age. Read More

I know that every student has a different learning style, and therefore, each lesson plan is custom-made. I work to further develop their natural skills, and making them feel comfortable working on what doesn't come as easily. Together, the student and I work to find out exactly what inspires them, and then all of their lessons will revolve around that. Read More
