My teaching experience dates back to when I was in high school 7 years ago.Through community service I started teaching young children about music, jazz and the saxophone. Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I like to emphasize for younger students, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument. Along with the saxophone I try to teach my students at least a basic understanding of the piano because it is the foundation of most if not all of music. Read More

I started teaching saxophone performance in 2010 for private students who were looking to improve their skills on the instrument.

Next I cater to the students ability to create their own character with a solo. Read More
