This includes a combination of classical and jazz music to help the students enjoy what they are doing and stay motivated. Read More

In my experience, those demands are best met with encouragement, not negativity. For as long as we are willing to learn, we are all students.

I'm a big believer in setting small but achievable goals. I also believe that achieving technical mastery of an instrument is a simple process of building habits.

It all depends on the student but in general I think a friendly smile and warm demeanor create a comfortable environment for the student to ask questions and perform their best each time I see them.
