I design my lessons differently for every student. I understand that every human being is different and it is my duty as an educator to adjust my methods to the student's needs. However, I can say that my methods focus on learning music through performance. I teach students how to read rhythms, melodies, how to understand theory, how to write music, all with his/her instrument in hand. This is a method that helps the student to develop more musicality and to become a integral musician, that not only plays an instrument, but also understand music as an entity. Read More

For beginning students in any genre, I begin with learning songs. Classical, jazz, bluegrass, and rock are more easily understood when you spend time playing the music with someone else.

For young intermediate to advanced players, the philosophy of building one's repertoire continues with the added focus on musical understanding. Read More

I believe three elements of teaching make an outstanding teacher: reflecting on practice, fostering meaningful and positive relationships, and emphasizing student engagement. Teaching is a challenging and often relentless profession. Therefore, it is imperative that teachers reflect upon their practice to build on what works in the classroom and also to modify what needs improvement. Nurturing personal and meaningful relationships is also key. When students and their parents believe that a teacher is invested in a child's learning and future, we find growth. Read More
