That way, whatever style of music they are interested in as they develop will be available to them. For my saxophone students, I prefer to focus on learning scales and melodies so that they have the skillset to perform any music they're interested in learning.

My teaching includes all aspects of music; Musical theory, sight singing, as well as Music History.

In addition to teaching music (which I have done on and off for about 4 years), I also enjoy teaching in and of itself---I have worked as a substitute teacher, a personal trainer, and a martial arts master at various points in my life.
