I come up with a customized lesson plan for each of my students that will stay on the best possible path to success. Based on skill level, all lessons are geared toward progressing to a goal that the student sets while setting individual milestones. I choose a method book that is most appropriate for the student. When I work with beginner students, I typically will use a year one method book such as Essential Elements. Read More

The first thing I do is determine the student's skill level, what the student can play, and how I can build on that. For a student who has never played before, I begin by explaining the physics of the instrument. Why a string makes a particular sound, what makes that sound higher or lower in pitch and why that is; then how to use that to write or imitate a particular melody. Read More

I don't have just ONE method...because every student has different likes, and different goals, they need personalized lessons. Some enjoy music theory, others prefer to just learn a more basic approach. Since I learned formally (in school/lessons) and informally (by ear, self-taught and playing onstage), I can give students whichever method suits their goals, with as much or as little theory as they are comfortable with. I specialize in playing by ear, which is essential for students who want to play onstage or make music with others, without worrying about sheet music. Read More

I've been teaching steady for 6 years now at All about music and arts. I've had several students through the years; young and older. From students who are new to music (starting from zero).

However I find it really depends on how you explain it. Read More

I have been teaching for the last thirty years although I took a break in the middle to focus on my composition and production career, I would now like to put a greater emphasis on teaching and passing on what I have learned. My main emphasis for the student is to create an environment where they are having fun whilst learning. I encourage improvising and not taking it too seriously. Read More
