Every student learns differently and at a different pace. It is my goal to help a student find their potential and even develop a passion for music in the process. I like to understand where a student is at in terms of goals, evaluate what it takes to accomplish these goals, and work with them using stepping stones if needed. The idea is to tailor my instruction to the goals of the student to help them achieve success and fufillment! Read More

For chords we will work through some books that I've had great past success with in my lessons. It's a great way to start off with just 2 or 3 chords, and slowly add more chords and strumming patterns as we progress through the book. As we learn more chords, we eventually start incorporating these chords into our songs as well. For advanced students I sometimes focus more heavily on one particular aspect of a students playing if they desire that (for example; if the student is already proficient in rhythm we may move directly to soloing and music theory). *I do not force my students to learn notation as I've found it can be very discouraging (especially for children), but I can incorporate this into the lesson if it's desired by the parent or student.

I also found that learning the bases of music would help student to play multiple instrument and grow up as an artist. Read More

I've been a lifetime musician, and love finding unique and fun ways to motivate my students.  I've worked with most styles of music before, and arranged music for many as well, so I'm very comfortable helping students with a variety of disciplines and interests.  My experience in both the civilian and military music communities has given me a very open-minded but direct approach to WHAT you should learn, and HOW FAST you should be able to progress each individual student.
