As we work through the scales I'll have the student read short songs and excerpts from Hal Leonard's "Piano Adventures Performance" book. As the student grasps the fundamentals I will then assign level appropriate solo pieces for them to perform. Beginner drum students will follow the same model by starting with rudiments and the different pieces of the drum set/djembe. As they progress, I will teach them basic drum grooves in various styles (rock, pop, funk, latin, reggae etc.) that they can use in performance. Read More

I have taught in music schools and studios since 2006 in the Philadelphia area, Northern New Jersey, and South Florida. I have instructed and band directed both privately and in a classroom setting for all ages and abilities.

In every interaction I hope to bring positivity and peace. I teach through my passion of music and the arts and hope to inspire in my students an openness toward life and a love of creative expression. Read More
