When I see a smile on someone's face in the presence of a musical accomplishment, the spiritual reward for that service is something I live for! To be able to help a student attain their goals requires a flexible teaching style, that can cater to every type of person. Positive affirmations are a key ingredient to helping a student feel good about they mile stones, but remaining realistic for the student at the same time allows them to make progress at their own pace, and feel good about it nonetheless.

I truly believe that all learning, while serious in nature, should be fun and exciting in methodology. Living in the age of technology, there are so many ways to make learning fun and interesting for students. Whether it be sharing information from Youtube, educational sites such as The Teaching Channel, using digital music apps such as "Smart Music" for assessment, showing a student how to record themselves on their smartphones, all of these things can be brought in to the instructional experience.

Though there are many different ways to teach, I will gravitate more towards my preferred learning style which is through discovery and analysis. I enjoy finding different ways to tackle one specific task and I enjoy taking part in that journey with my students. Those moments when their eyes light up when they realize a whole new dimension of possibilities just opened up for them because they found a new piece to the puzzle. Read More

For beginner students of drums and piano, we start with the basics. That includes, grasping a solid understanding of common musical terms, and applying them to properly learn to read and play songs. Once a student has a solid grasp of basic music theory, I will begin to challenge them and push them to new heights with new standards, and more challenging pieces to play. When a student has truly become adept, I love to look toward competitions and festivals that will give students that extra push that helps them build motor skills and self-discipline that will be of use in all areas of life.

Instruments: Piano
For young students I use Faber and Alfred books. As well as Famous and Fun books which have popular tunes to help keep the students motivated to practice. My older students work in the standard Hanon exercise book which helps develop agility and evenness in the hands and fingers. I also teach my students all 12 Major and minor scales, arpeggios, and chord progressions. My more advanced students usually learn classical music and Jazz/Blues Rags series by Martha Mier. Read More

Each student is different and as such, each student's approach to learning music is different. While still addressing your personal goals, I work to help you achieve those goals and interests, but also utilize my own experiences in teaching to foster deeper growth. I focus on exploration, keeping the study interesting, all while understanding that each student can be at any level, and learn at any speed. I believe that both talent and potential must be met with effort for growth to be achieved, and that all students need some form of discipline and encouragement and make sure to serve both at every lesson.

I have a laisse-faire style of teaching. I am very relaxed and like my students to be relaxed. I depends on how the lesson flows. If we are making ground and they are picking up a lot I will give them more and more tools to work with to keep them inspired and moving! I love seeing people get excited. I feel excited sometimes when they are excited. It is an infectious energy and is filled with life. Read More

When will I start to see results?
Every student progresses at their own pace, but most people start noticing small wins within the first few weeks — whether it’s hitting a note more confidently, playing part of a song, or just feeling more comfortable with their instrument.
That said, real, lasting progress comes from consistent practice and regular lessons. Just like learning a language or a sport, music takes time — but with a little patience and the right guidance, growth will happen. My job is to make that process as smooth, motivating, and tailored as possible.
For kids, I often see improvements in focus, rhythm, coordination, and musical ear pretty quickly — especially when the lessons are fun and engaging. For adults, progress often shows up first in confidence, musical understanding, and expression.
I always set clear, achievable goals with my students so we can track progress together. And no matter your age or level, I’ll celebrate every milestone with you — because those small wins add up to big breakthroughs.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practice doesn’t have to be long or perfect — it just needs to be consistent, focused, and intentional. I always tell my students: "It’s not about how long you practice, but how you practice." Even 10–20 minutes a day can lead to real progress when done with purpose.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
They show curiosity about music. Maybe they sing around the house, tap rhythms, play pretend instruments, or ask questions about songs.
? They can focus for short periods of time. If your child can follow simple instructions and stay engaged for 15–30 minutes, they’re likely ready to benefit from lessons.
? They enjoy creative activities. Kids who like drawing, storytelling, dancing, or imaginative play often enjoy music lessons too!
? They’re starting to develop listening skills. Being able to hear and respond to sounds, melodies, or basic directions is a good indicator.
For younger children (ages 4–6), the goal isn’t perfection — it’s to explore music in a fun, engaging way that builds foundational skills like rhythm, listening, and coordination. I keep lessons playful and age-appropriate, using movement, games, and creativity to keep them inspired.
For school-aged kids (7+), lessons can become a bit more structured, with clear goals and progress tracking — always tailored to the child’s learning style and interests.
If you're unsure, I’m happy to offer a trial lesson to see how your child responds. Sometimes, all it takes is one positive, encouraging musical experience to spark a lifelong passion!
