For students who are already in an instrumental program through school, I will start with whatever method book they are using at school, and branch off from there. Depending on the instrument, I will bring in another method book specific to that instrument book and we will also use some sort of etude book. The etudes may be classical in nature or more modern music. For older students, I will help them prepare Solo and Ensemble pieces as well. Read More

If your child has some unique learning challenges, I am more than happy to partner with your family to develop an individual plan for learning music. Read More

It is on purpose that the word invitation is overtly interspersed throughout this teaching philosophy. Fundamentally, I subscribe to the belief that teaching is an invitation to relationship.
