My main focus is helping the student improve while enjoying the process. A musician is more likely to stick with it if it's fun.

That involves learning scales and patterns.Listening to the types of music you are interested in can be very helpful and fun and I like to encourage that. Read More

Practicing and playing music never seems like work to me, it is always fun, and I try to make it that way for my students also. Read More
