Instruments: Piano Violin Cello Viola Fiddle Music Keyboard
For beginning strings students (even young children) to advanced students, I use the Suzuki method along with the accompanying sight reading book, I Can Read Music. Advanced students who have reached Suzuki book 6 and beyond are invited to seek out other repertoire as a supplement to their Suzuki studies. Students who are involved in an orchestra are also invited to bring excerpts of their music to their lessons so that I can help them to feel confident and prepared at playing tests and auditions.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums
On every instrument that I teach I place great importance on fundamentals, especially developing a deep sense of rhythm. Whether a novice student is learning basic concepts for the first time or an advanced student is maintaining their musical foundation, a short routine of very simple warmups is essential and is also a beautiful way to connect to the instrument every time we sit down to it.For young beginners on piano and guitar I start with the Faber Piano Adventure series and the FJH Young Beginners series - for young drum students I use Alfred's beginners drum set book.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Saxophone Drums Bass Guitar Recorder Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I began teaching as a teenager when I was in Ann Arbor's psychedelic rock band SPROTON LAYER. I have taught friends and family off and on for many years. During the economic crash in 2009, I took a course on Teaching to understand different age groups and varied approaches in learning. Since then, I have taught steadily and found it very rewarding. One of the hardest things to get across to the Student is that the single most important thing to do is Play. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Clarinet Music
My teaching style is whatever fits best with the student. I am a high energy, silly, out of the box kind of teacher. I have no shame doing a silly dance to get my students engaged and moving! My main goal is for students to have fun and enjoy making music. My students will quickly learn to love every sound that they make because every note they produce is unique to them. Read More
Instruments: Piano Organ Synthesizer Keyboard
As an accomplished self taught pianist and composer I've spent my life experimenting with different methods, material and practice beliefs. I can teach and speak more broadly now about music, not as an elitist activity but as a language vital to humans whether it is "spoken" or heard. I encourage exploration, a firm understanding of fundamentals and full pursuit of whatever goals are set by the student. This understanding has allowed me to produce over 50 projects, 250 string arrangements and write well over 200 songs to date. Read More

Having at least some goal in mind and working towards that musical goal will help a student achieve success in whatever they put forth on their instrument of choice as well as music as a whole. It will be ultimately extremely satisfying to express feelings through the notes as we take them from on the page to in the air. Sharing this joy of music will be also undeniably rewarding from student to student as well as performer to audience. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Organ Synthesizer
I have been teaching music, mainly guitar and piano, off and on for almost 15 years. My style varies on the age of the student, what they hope to achieve and where their strengths lie. I feel it's important for the student to learn the fundamentals while simultaneously having fun with their instrument and exploring the music they feel passionate about. For me, the trick is inspiring the student to pick up their instrument everyday and want to play it. Read More
Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone Euphonium French Horn Tuba Music
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Your child is ready to start learning music as soon as they express interest in music. This can be as early as 3 years old. Students can start learning piano or recorder as early as 3 or 4 years old. For brass instruments if a child expresses interest they can start as early as age 8 or 9 years old. For all music students a basic familiarity with the piano keyboard is a great asset.
When will I start to see results?
Students should see results after one or two lessons, and will continue to grow and flourish as time passes. The best indicator early on is that they are motivated to practice at home. For younger students parental guidance may be re required
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
As the 5th of six children in my family, my older sibling started playing music when I was very young, and since we had a Piano in the house, I would often play. I started Piano lessons in 2nd or 3rd grade. My High school Band director was a great inspiration for me, and after a couple of years in band I know that I wanted to be a conductor. I could see myself in his shoes saying a lot of the things he told the band. Prior to that I had always wanted to be a Math professor which was inspired by my favorite uncle who was a math professor. Although I have two Music degrees, I never lost my interest in math, and am a certified teacher of both Music and Math!
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I started piano lessons in elementary school, and my older sister played the Trombone. She encouraged me to play the French Horn, and I eventually majored in French Horn Performance in college.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I have a few accomplishments for which I am proud. I was conductor for a small chamber ensemble in Vienna, Austria and had several performances at various venues around town, the pinnacle was performing at the Vienna Konzerthaus, which is the home of the Vienna Symphony Orchestra. Another accomplishment I am proud of is that almost all of the brass students I have had since moving to Ann Arbor, have been 1st chair in the top band at their high school by tier junior or senior year.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Most of my students have consistently relieved a top rating at the Solo and Ensemble Festivals. I encourage all of my students to compete in both Solo and Ensemble. The excellence of my students is mainly due to their solid practicing and desire to improve. The most important thing I contribute is a solid knowledge of music rudiments and theory, and an insistence on understanding musicality and artistry when playing. . I also continue to challenge my students to improve and to play/perform at their own respective best.
