Instruments: Violin Banjo Fiddle

My methos are geared towards the specific student and what he/she wants to learn. For students who specifically want to learn fiddle or banjo, I would mostly focus on learning by ear as I believe that conveys the style in the most authentic form. For classical students, we can work from the suzuki method books, but without strictly adhering to the teaching method. I believe that a combination of music reading and learning by ear will create the most musical and practical aproach to learning an instrument. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin Viola Fiddle

For adults, I try to find out what the student is interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and fun, no matter their ability level. For fiddling, I gauge the students' strengths and develop some exercises that will enhance their sound and overall technique. Then, we choose tunes that are interesting to the student and work through them either one or a few at a time, depending on what is a comfortable work load and also a comfortable challenge.

For my beginning students, I typically start with either Essential Elements 2000 for strings or Sound Innovations. Both books give younger students a grasp on the fundamentals of technique. As they grow I then introduce solo repertoire by using the Suzuki Books but also like to add a fiddle book. Sometimes students gradually go either to fiddle or to classical. I try and encourage what they are more comfortable with. For adults, I try to find out what genre of music they enjoy and try to gauge their ability level with a couple playing evaluations.

I enjoy seeing my students having fun while playing music. My hope is to enable all my students to be able to get to a point where they are enjoying their own playing. I try to be very understanding as a teacher and establish a genuine relationship with my students so later down the line, I'm not only a music instructor to them but also a mentor they can come to in times of need.
