I believe that a strong foundation is essential for steady progress and confident performance. A comprehensive approach is my preference. Therefore, when I teach piano, I prefer Faber and Faber Piano Adventures paired with A Dozen a Day for added technique. Since many students in this school district are in band or orchestra, I usually use Essential Elements for Strings, Brass, and Woodwinds. I spend a reasonable amount of time preparing my students for our recitals and many of them join in the group songs, which have included "What a Wonderful World", "Happy", and currently "The Theme From Midnight Cowboy".

We will work hard, but we will remember the underlying joy that comes from making music! Therefore, each lesson will target areas of improvement in each student's playing, while positively reinforcing each student's success as we progress each week. Read More
Instruments: Piano, Clarinet
I have been playing music an instrument for about 23 years now. I started when I was 4 on piano and later picked up clarinet at 10, and going on to learn most of the band instruments along the way. I pursued clarinet performance in college and was principal of the orchestra for the last two years. I currently work full time as a 1st grade teacher as well as perform in various ensembles in the Sacramento area. Read More
