My responsibilities included teaching rhythmic patterns, melodies, note durations and intervals, and experimenting with classroom instruments. Read More

Every person is different and I take that to heart constructing a lesson plan for each student that is suited for their personal tastes and speed.

Further methods include using as many senses at the same so the mind more easily consolidates information from practice. Read More
