My goal is to hear that students dont even realize how much theyre practicing throughout the week because theyre enjoying it so much!

As a lifelong learner myself, I always encourage this quality because I believe that allowing yourself to be a beginner at something new all the time really fosters all-around success! Read More

Nothing is more amazing than watching someone achieve their goals and loving every step of the process! Read More

I spend about a third of the lesson on specific technique work and I always encourage students to bring in their own material that we can work on as well.

Every student learns differently, and I treat every student as an individual in that capacity. Read More
