I am not strict in one specific style. I try to be malleable in my approach as I get to know the habits and abilities of each individual. I've had students for whom I thought it best to be more rigid and repetitive drill based, while others seem to benefit from a more passive guru. It's a spectrum. Always, though, I try to control the pace of the session, to speak thoughtfully, honestly, and constructively whilst always maintaining the utmost respect for the struggles that a student is facing.

I see now how all the instruments are related. They all share the same scales and notes and theory, and if you want you can play any music on any instrument. (There's nothing wrong with playing heavy metal on a ukulele or violin!). Read More
