Overview:
I am a driven and passionate musician, who loves performing, and most of all passing on my love of music to students.  In 2014 I graduated from Messiah College with a Bachelor of Science degree in Music Education, Studying both horn and Jazz Bass.  Upon graduating Messiah, I attended Bowling Green State University studying Horn Performance.  My wide range of musical experiences has equiped me to teach different styles to a wide variety of students.  I have performed with Jazz groups such as the Reese Project, Kirk Reese Trio, and Michael Shirtz Quartet.  I am also the Artist Horn Mentor for the Detroit Symphony Youth Orchestra and Wind Ensemble, and have perfromed with the Adrian Symphony Orchestra and the Birmingham-Bloomfield Symphony Orchestra.  I currently hold and adjunct professor position at Terra State Community College
EXPERIENCE
My teaching experience goes back to my high school years, as I began teaching guitar lessons part time about 8 years ago.  Since them I have held studios in Minnesota, Pennsylvania, and Ohio including Double Bass, Bass Guitar, Guitar, and Horn.  During my Bachelors degree I had the opportunity to student teach at Red Land High School and Middle School where I ran a concert band and taught private lessons on all instruments.  In 2015 I won an Adjunct Professor position at Terra State Community College where I run the Big Band, Jazz Combo, Jazz Improv Lessons, and Bass Lessons.  My wide range of experiences both performing and teaching has equiped me to teach Jazz and Classical music.  I am always looking to bring on new students of all ages!
METHODS USED
For beginning horn students I use the Rubank method as well as my own combination of etudes.  Once the student has a solid understanding of the fundamentals a regimine of solos and etudes will be assigned, followed by the standard solo repertoire.  For bass and guitar students I have my own method book that focuses on music theory, technique, as well as improvisation. I strongly believe in adapting my materials and method to best suit the student and the students need, I will work to help you achieve your goals!
LESSON STYLE
Teaching music is one of the most rewarding experiences for both the teacher and the student.  I teach students at their own pace, focusing on taking them from where they are to there highest potential.  I encourage realistic goals and strategies to reach their goals at every lesson.  Having a very specific plan for how to improve is key for reaching your potential, I adapt my teaching to the student and work hard to find the most effective way to reach the student. In lessons I focus on a positive and supportive learning environment.

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.

Ok

Are you sure that's your only availability? The more availability you easier it will be to arrange a teacher for you.
