I separate my methods of teaching into 6 different areas - all of which can be adapted to any skill level. 1) reading and music literacy. Focus on music literacy not only helps my students read music more seamlessly but it also reinforces technique and comprehensive development. Main music literature focused on is George Lewis Stone "Stick Control," Louis Bellson "Modern Reading Text in 4/4," Ted Reed's "Progressive Steps to Syncopation," and for more advance students the rhythm concepts of Mark Dresser and Ed Harkins.

I am well known in the community for my teachings. The number one thing that parents and students have said about my teachings is that I makes things easy to understand. I write and teach out of my own curriculum that is catered to each student.

I like to teach to the interests and ability levels of my students. I believe in keeping lessons light and fun, while maintaining a strong emphasis on guiding my students toward becoming musically literate. A typical lesson for a younger student may include board games and coloring pages in addition to traditional "on instrument" time. I also strive to integrate technology in to my lessons, whether by using iOS apps as teaching supplements, or by monitoring home practice through a "flipped" classroom approach. Read More

For over 35 years, I've enjoyed this amazing experience not only as a recording artist but on stage performing live....I tell you, there is nothing like it. With this being said, it is my sincerest hope that I help my students achieve this same sense of joy and accomplishment - knowing and feeling that you have performed to the best of your ability and seek only to improve further.
