My teaching style is completely student centered. I think for a student to be the most successful, they have to have a say in what they want to learn.

I look forward to watching my students learn and mature in their music. It is important that each student feels comfortable and not rushed in their learning progression.

I will work with my students to set realistic goals for the week. Additionally, I seek to find ways to make practice fun and individualized to each students so that they want to practice when they get home. Read More
