I will start with basic books that teach you the bare fundamentals of music, the notes, fingering, etc. If you already know the basics we will go into a more advanced teaching plan. Depending on your skill level and what you want to accomplish in terms of style and technique I will base my lesson plan accordingly. I will base what I teach you according to your musical influences, passions, styles you want to learn, and who you would like to become as a musician overall. Read More

That was certainly the case for me! My parents started my violin lessons at the young age of four; by the time I hit twelve, I was no longer content to play classical music. Discovering funk and rock & roll, picking up a guitar, and falling in love with the instrument meant that within months, I was spending more time voluntarily practicing my new instrument than I'd ever spent on the Suzuki Method.

Watching a student develop their playing is an incredibly gratifying experience for me as a teacher. To help encourage this,I put a great effort into connecting with the student's interests from day one. With each lesson, I work with them to set goals that are within their reach, while maintaining a relaxed, self-paced learning environment that is both fun and comfortable. My teaching style incorporates both traditional, and non-traditional techniques, all customized to meet each person's own unique needs. Read More

Mygoal is to develop a friendly and encouraging relationship with each student in an effort to motivate them to do their very best. It takes discipline to learn to play an instrument but the journey to consistent improvement should be enjoyable. I am experienced in a wide range of musical styles and I try to help students pursue their individual musical interests. Lessons in music theory, technique, sight reading and musical performance are taught to each student. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
I believe the most valuable thing that I have learned from teaching music is that you can actually practice "practicing." The way you practice is the way you perform, so I stress during my lessons that one should be playing the same way one will practice alone. A lot of the kids I teach really like to play fast, but I emphasize over and over that playing fast is not nearly as important as playing correctly. Any of my students would attest that I am constantly fixing their posture and technique. I also love to emphasize that you don't always need your instrument to be able to practice it. One can get a lot of valuable practice in just by playing drum patterns on one's lap or figuring out flute runs with a pencil!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Sign up for a trial! It can't hurt. I have taught some really young kids, the youngest of the bunch being 4 and 5 year-olds; Sometimes they aren't even psychically big enough to sit behind a drum set or hold a guitar. Whether or not they are ready - I have discovered that it really depends on the child. At School of Rock, we have some tiny kids who can absolutely shred on their instrument and are way ahead of the curve, but I have also had a four-year-old in lessons who I just couldn't get to listen to me and only wanted to bang on drums without learning anything. The important thing is that the teacher (me) and the parent (you) are communicating honestly. I don't want to waste anybody's time or money!
When will I start to see results?
If you are a true beginner, I guarantee you will see results by the end of the trial lesson. The reason such a high percentage of my trials sign up for lessons is because I am very good at helping my students to realize any and all accomplishments they have made. By the end of my trial, the student should be able to play a basic rock beat, and it always fills me with joy to see the excitement that comes with learning this - any age. I am teaching some kids who are brand new to the instrument, have only had three or four lessons, and can already play through a whole song.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
I think the hardest thing to master on any instrument is true, uninhibited creative expression. To be able to have an idea and express it through music the same way you would through language. When I jam with other musicians, we are constantly picking up on each other's ideas and if nobody's ego gets in the way we create a time and space that is a true combination of everyone's energy. That being said, there are always very technical things that one can learn on an instrument to achieve mastery. One of the ways I have been attempting to master drums is by listening to songs with challenging parts, figuring them out, notating them, and then learning the whole thing. It is no easy task!
