I love teaching, and I do so with both encouragement and humor. I realize that not everyone can is able or willing to practice six hours a day, so I work with each student individually to find their pace.

Some students are inspired by achieving a goal and some are inspired by playing particularly music, so I try to tailor my lessons and goals to them. Read More
