This is the second best drum corp (at the time) in the world out of over a dozen different division 1 corps. I unfortunately was not able to perform with them, however it was a great honor just being able to be accepted and to practice with them for 4 months in New Jersey. Read More

Instruments: Trombone

I believe that each student requires differing methods of instruction in order to grow, so I stay adaptable in which exercises and etudes/solos I assign to meet this requirement. I am also generally happy to hear whatever a student wants to bring in if they have suggestions of their own. I think that being open to working on what a student wants to work on, at least most of the time, is instrumental in ensuring that the student stays motivated in their practicing and continues to have fun playing the trombone!

For any of my new students I like to begin with getting to know them. This way I can decide on how it would be best for me to teach that specific person. Whether if I should speak to student A more stern or more friendly. Depending on the person I decide on how to go by my lesson of the day. I have learned by personal experience and thanks to my student observing classes that I fully comprehended that not just because a student doesn't grasp the lesson as fast as the rest of the class, it does not mean the student is lazy or anything negative.

I would love the ability to teach you and know we'd enjoy it!

It is required of me to make fun and educational lesson plans following the curriculum set by the school as well as keep up with any and all professional development provided including monthly faculty meetings.
