This way, each student has their own, individualized curriculum to help with technique or material that they find to be difficult.

I like to use the Suzuki method for younger beginners because it can be more challenging to learn to read notes, but I encourage note reading for older students. Read More

I find the learning process to be so fun as an educator, as I believe we learn life skills through challenge, goal setting, and accomplishments.

Each lesson is tailored to my individual student and I help them progress at his or her own pace. Read More
