Different personality types call for different styles of teaching. Some students prefer to lead the way and create their own agendas while other students prefer to have the instructor lead. I love to discuss learning preferences with students to guarantee that they are receiving the preferred style of education. With children, I like to let them "lead the way" while I continuously steer them in the right direction. It keeps them engaged during the lesson and may inspire them to take charge and practice at home. Read More

My favorite part of teaching was getting students excited and motivated to practice their instrument by exposing them to new pieces that they truly desire to learn. Also, when students were frustrated I loved to find different solutions to difficulties they had, as this would give them a fresh approach and allow them to improve at a faster pace. I have enjoyed teaching students of all ages and would welcome anyone who is motivated into my studio! Read More

I am interested in students who are serious and are wiling to put in work and practice. I can work with you to find out where you want to be musically. I can work with beginners to help them decide what they want to do. I can also work with more advanced students to further their playing abilities and become working musicians. There is more to becoming a working musician than just playing an instrument and I am willing to share that information with the motivated student. Read More
