My students will learn how to read the notes, and music rhythms, counting by 1234 etc, scales, proper tonguing, and anything else that is related to playing the trumpet. I use 8 notes.com for the music because it is free. If a student has music they need help with, we can use your music. Bands all over the world use Essential Elements. Some of my students prefer to use the method books like this. Read More

I started teaching guitar lessons in 1999 (20 years this year!) Since those days I've gotten two degrees and taught at colleges, and private institutions, as well as high school and middle schools.

I strive to have a positive and friendly relationship with students. Respect of eachother is also important. I teach each student uniquely and do not stick to a "cookie cutter" approach. Everyone has unique physiology and strengths and weaknesses, so each person should be taught according to their specific characteristics. I also try to explain playing processes and ideas clearly to ensure comprehension. I often use analogies, comparisons, and visuals to make teaching concepts more clear. Read More
