I try to understand the needs of my student; musical, technical, personal. We are all different, so we start from different points. There are no superior and inferior starting points, for we never know where the shortest paths lie. The following are the bare necessities: 1) Realistic Goals. Reaching those goals will give the student satisfaction and encouragement to proceed further. 2) Making Progress, no matter how small, every lesson. A journey is movement. Read More

I provide individualized instruction with a theoretical focus. I want students to understand the music that they play. I view music as a language and believe in the importance of being able to manipulate it to convey a message to the listener. I allow students to choose the songs they learn and couple them with technical exercises to improve dexterity and familiarity with the instrument. I believe in a "do no harm" philosophy, where my primary goal is to have students enjoy music on their instrument without being overly burdened with "homework" and "practice." Read More

I always explore different methods that might fit the age and personality of the student but for keyboard lessons I have found success with the Alfred Piano Method. Instrumental lessons usually follow the method book that is selected by their school band director. Beyond that I have a large library of supplementary music to expand the students interest with new styles and composers.I'm very flexible with the method books and after I get to know the student I can select a method that would work the best for instruction.

In High School, my music practice skills carried over to my academic studies and I was able to graduate with Honors, a 4.00, and earn 14 scholarships to attend college to become a musicteacher. Since then, I have had the privilege ofteaching1000's of students, and mentoring several college students. One of my favorite examples is a student I startedteachingin 4th Grade who later added lessons for 3 other instruments and accomplished his dream of making it into the Chicago Symphony Youth Orchestra.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
I used to practice the piano five days a week, for one hour each time. I thought it was to much as a child. However, I would suggest to the parents that they reserve at least fifteen minutes to one half hour for practicing each weekly assignment, as well as, each prior assignment so the student gains the understanding and can see their own success. For adults, I would suggest ten minutes for warm up of finger scales, chord progressions and song choices, depending on ability at the time. If learning for the first time, I teach so we can play a favorite song together that is easier to play, again, so the student can see their success.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Any association with musicality is encouraged early. Whether singing in a kids choir, playing a recorder in school, even listening to music creates a desire to play a musical instrument. Parents are encouraged to sing along with their children and learn a musical instrument so they can play along with their child. My success has been with children in their early teens through the age of seventy. Children can learn music if it is fun, not work. When young children learn the game of baseball, they have to learn the basics, but it is sure fun. I do not charge for the first lesson, so if your child would like to play a musical instrument, I encourage it.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I recall one piano teacher, who had a home studio by Northeast High School. We always started with a few start beginning scales. Then, we played my last weeks song selection using music books appropriate for my level. What struck me was he always sat next to me pointing out ways to make transitions easier. He would show me, have me try it, then do it, then play together slowly. I learned the most during that period. He would always play the song selection as it should be played with feeling. Playing with feeling inspired me to continue my lifelong passion for music.
When will I start to see results?
I start the younger children slowly and keep it fun. They learn simple things they can play. I may be three notes that are part of a song they know from school. Children do not hit home runs in the first month of playing baseball.
The same goes for music and learning a musical instrument. If they like it, they will continue while it is fun. I encourage parents to stay positive about small gains, as they multiply over time. I would think you will know after the first month, taking your cue from your child, of course.
