I possess excellent communication skills, that is to say, I listen well to my students before I speak. My students are free and encouraged to express their goals and they become comfortable doing so.

I always use easy to understand and practical piano books chosen based on the student's experience, age, and goals. Read More

My main goal right off the bat for my students is to get them playing from the very first lesson, starting with basic chords, and even have them practice a simple riff or lick from a song that they might recognize. In my philosophy, because this is how I was taught, it is important to keep the student interested, having fun, while still learning the things that they may consider "boring." I do this by implementing songs that they may know, or songs that they want to learn, and use that to teach what chords the song is using, what scales it might be using, and from that, have them practice the song and chord or scale accordingly.

I work with students at their own pace and tailor my teaching style to their needs. I want to work with you and make this the most fulfilling experience possible. Every student has his or her own learning style and preferences, and I want to figure out what those are so I can best help you achieve your musical goals. Of course, no teaching style is sufficient to teach music, because practice is key. Read More
