Instruments: Piano Synthesizer Music Keyboard

My teaching style prioritizes mindset and artistry above all, but my approach is highly student-specific. I pride myself on allowing students to discover and pursue their musical interests while still maintaining a base level of knowledge and skill appropriate to the student's age and experience. In the case of young students who may not be familiar enough with musical material to select pieces, I typically assign listening homework to complete outside of the lesson. Read More

I love to let my students interests guide our lessons, its how I fell in love with my art and I think I think your own passion should lead your discoveries. That being said, I didn't never need a push to practice fundamentals or things that would make me a more well rounded musician - If you or your child needs a loving push I am there to provide that.

Instruments: Piano Trumpet

My approach to teaching is a logical one. The student needs to learn to "crawl', and then to 'walk" and then to run. With an organized succession of excersizes, the student can learn the basics of the instrument which will lead to the ability to play more fun songs.That is the goal of learning the instrument; to be able to eventually play some fun music!! The student will get an assignment written in their lesson book, and will learn that lesson for the next lesson . Read More
