I began teaching when I was a freshman in High School and I continued with a full-time load of students throughout all four years because of how much I loved it!

It depends on the age of the student, but there are plenty of method books and pieces that can both teach a student music theory and notation, as well as their performance skill.

No matter the age I start all students off with building fundamentals of tone, flexibility, articulation, and range.

Younger students will start in their band method books, but as time goes on they will transition into Rochut's Melodious etudes, and the Rubank method books. Read More
