It is best to start out very simple because someone just learning has to develop confidence to move on to something else. A student will give up if it is not reinforcing. Read More

My style is focused but fun! I ask my students to practice every day. While this may sound daunting, it's really the only way to make progress in music.

I come to teaching with the understanding that every student is different. We will try to get at each problem in a variety of ways, and see what works for you.
