We will talk technique throughout so theres an understanding of the why behind it. I usually like to do this as often as I can, so the student can have a deeper knowledge of how the mechanism works with the body.

My job is to motivate, instruct and make sure the students learn something new in every lesson, also develop a better understanding of music which leads to a more joyful experience while practicing and listening.

To me it is most important that the student is having fun while learning; therefore, as a part of regular instruction time we play games to learn and review material, skills, and performance techniques.

My philosophy is to teach the student what they want to learn while including basic music theory so that they know what they are doing and why. I plan performance opportunities for the students every couple of months. I emphasize that music is another language we can communicate with.

As a passionate songwriter, I also encourage students to begin composing and songwriting right away if it interests them. Read More
