Instruments: Guitar Drums
I started drum lessons at 12 years old and studied jazz and swing drumming early on. I was a percussion major in college then spent a few years in Austin Texas traveling with country, rock and blues bands. Have played on over 20 records. My lessons are one on one and we both play side by side each at a drum set learning and having fun. My home studio is comfortable and provides a great atmosphere for music. Read More

I am the students greatest motivator. I love to bring out the best in all of my students and help them discover things about their musical capacities that they never have before. I am highly enthusiastic and believe that every one learns at their own pace. Its never about how quickly you learn something, but about how well you learn it, even if it takes time. I like to acknowledge the students progress and their accomplishments because I believe it helps the student to have the desire to keep learning and progressing. Read More
Instruments: Drums
The Suzuki method is an internationally known music curriculum and teaching philosophy. The method aims to create an environment for learning music which parallels the linguistic environment. I believe in creating an environment for my students that makes them passionate , comfortable inspires them to learn. Creating an interesting schedule that leads them to ask for more. Understanding my students behavior adjusting my teaching style accordingly helps me deliver a successful student. Read More

When will I start to see results?
It really depends on the student, their interest level, their age range, and most importantly their practice routine. Different people have different natural talents. That's not to say the most important skills on any instrument aren't learned through training and practice, but rather that some things like perfect pitch or a natural affinity for dictation, "good ears" so to say can't help anyone with a genuine interest develop quicker then their counter part. The most important thing I think in terms of developing results is the students interest level which will then directly effect their practice routine. A player who is truly passionate will develop the quickest because they'll put more time into the instrument. Some students only truly care to be casual players and will then develop at a casual rate based on their own comfort level. Students who arn't truly interested and don't want to learn will struggle to develop at all. Younger students may also develop slower then older students although full adults can often be hindered in development by their busy schedules.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
You can't force an interest in music. If children are ready to take music lessons they will let you know. It's definitely worth asking them if they start to express curiosity about music because it is important to nurture that interest. However, the best and most successful players I've know are the ones who really want to play. Otherwise I think early adolescence between 10 and 12 is probably the best age range. I started playing when I was twelve and could just barely grasp the concepts at the time necessary to progress. Younger students might struggle to find the focus and finger strength especially to really progress at an effective rate.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
My best advice for practicing effectively is to do so frequently. Practicing for say three hours one day and then taking the next four days off doesn't work nearly as well for development as practicing 30-45 minutes each of those days would. Much like studying for a test, when we cram that much information our brains can't really process it all. However when we develop consistent practice routines it's easy to develop concepts over multiple sessions by compounding practice day after day. Shorter more regular practice sessions are less exhausting and easier to digest while keeping students from becoming frustrated by allowing them to track their progress day by day.
