Since my graduate degree days 25 years ago , I have been steadily teaching both as a private instructor, and in classroom situations...

I encourage all of my students to choose songs that they want to sing to ensure that they are enjoying what they are learning. For children and beginners, it is important that the fundamentals are in place, therefore I tend to spend more time on musicianship skills and music theory. For more advanced students it is important to understand how their unique instrument works, therefore I like to approach technique through pedagogy. Read More

I have student assessments at the end of each eight lessons block to make sure that the student knows how they have improved and where they need more work. Read More
