I love helping others develop a passion for music! Because of this, I find it highly important to work with each student at their own pace applying techniques that fit their learning style.

Students can also bring in music they are working on outside of our lessons (band music, original compositions or music they just want to learn) and I can help them improve on the piece. Read More

For my beginning students who are children, I may start them with Hal Leonards Essential Elements and/or the Rubank Method.
