My approach to teaching is simple. I believe every student has a lens through which music feels exciting and natural. My job as a teacher is to help you discover it.

My teaching style is totally based on the energy and personality of the student. With younger students I try to be as patient as possible by allowing them to tell me exactly what they are looking to learn in the lessons.

I will assign tasks for the students to complete before the next lesson so that they are doing the work needed to improve their musicianship. Read More
