I began teaching privately as a high school student, working with begnning students at the middle school. I have taught privately in my home and in students' homes since graduating from college. Regular practice is very important and something I emphasize with my students. I like to include a mixture of classical and modern music in my lessons, so that students enjoy what they are learning and playing. If a student does not enjoy their time playing their instrument, they will not want to put the practice in and lessons will become a point of argument.  Read More

While I don't subscribe to any particular method I do believe there is a best order to learning. After about a year of instruction I try to encourage students to explore music more on their own, and eventually get to the point where my job is more of a coach than a teacher. Read More

Instruments: Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet

I have calm but firm teaching style, allowing students to progress at their own pace, but not afraid to push them when they need to. I always make sure they completely understand all that I ask, and listen to their comments and problems they wish to address. I am always happy to teach what they want to learn, but also encourage to learn other forms, styles, and genres of music that they're not familiar with. Read More
