I believe in a positive perspective on practicing: regular practice will greatly enhance a student's progress with lessons. Focusing on, and isolating, challenges, rather than practicing what has already been acquired, will help the student gain proficiency and fluency in his or her musical ability.

Musical challenges can, at times, be met by technical considerations; and technical challenges can be met by musical considerations. Read More

I also make it a point to observe how they learn and what is successful for them along with what doesn't work so well. I use educational tools such as videos and games to also teach, especially for the younger ones. This makes them enjoy the lesson more I've found.

This was a huge turning point in my playing and teaching! My teacher, Vincent Bredice, would instruct me on "how to" teach younger students and was a tremendous help in propelling my ability to teach, as well as, level of musicianship! Read More

I teach all levels and my methods depend on the age and skill level of each student.

For intermediate students, I assess thier current skil level and breadth of knowledge so i can then help them expand and solidify thier musical groundwork. Read More
