I begin with developing sheet music literacy in my students right off the bat if they have no experience in reading music. I believe music literacy is one of the most important aspects of learning an instrument.

Meaning how to hold the instrument and how to use proper technique. Read More

My teaching style really focuses around developing a love for your instrument. If the student loves their instrument and the music that is written for their instrument, they will feel encouraged to practice.

Once we find the routine and groove that works for the both the student and myself, then the learning should come along easily and fun. Read More
