For beginner Piano / Keyboard Students, I use the Bastien Books. They are simple to understand and get the Student through the first few stages of Right Hand Left Hand coordination and positions. I have several different books for Saxophone Students that feature technique, solo repertoire and duets. Depending on whether the student is a child, a teenager or an adult, I choose either a Daisy Guitar Book, Hal Leonard books, or the Berkeley School of Music for Guitarists. Read More

I believe that every child deserves a quality music education. Music is such a special experience that helps people grow in multiple areas. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Saxophone

For beginning piano students, I like to teach out of the Faber and Faber books. I like to go through three method books and then move into more advanced solo repertoire. For saxophone I use custom and tailor made assignments and methods focusing on sound primarily, followed by technique so the student can understand the fundamentals of how their body works with their instrument. For both saxophone and piano students I encourage a high degree of self direction as I believe that gives students the ability to seek and find what kind of things they enjoy and want to get better at.

I have been teaching privately since my undergraduate studies. Private teaching became not only a way for me to test myself, but transfer what I have learned to passionate young musicians.

I love sharing and discussing music with students; by teaching I have the opportunity to get kids interested in music and saxophone in ways they never thought possible. Read More
