I started teaching in high school. At Santa Monica High School, we had a huge music program.

To learn and trust in what you believe, what you are supposed to cover for all ages and the delicate approach that it demands, is a dynamic process and continuously adapting with the procession of time. Therefore, music teachers such as I have to continuously revise our methods in order to keep pace with the constantly morphing needs and attitudes of students.Teaching students for me is similar to learning a new lesson for myself, and to stepping in a profound world.
