Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Keyboard

For piano students I highly recommend the Alfreds books for beginners. After you have some background we can work with the music of your choice, classical, jazz, pop, RnB etc. Some of my specialties include teaching people how to turn chord charts into music, how to improvise and how to use music theory to improve your understanding of music. For guitar I do not use any books as I find most guitar method books to be very old fashioned and not inviting to the student. Read More

Once the students progress to a certain level in their music I will then introduce more challenging exercises to prepare them for the next level. Read More

With adult students, the material covered is completely individual. Read More
