Instruments: Piano Guitar Synthesizer
I teach private music lessons for five years.Every year I play piano and guitar with Woodland Park Holiday Home tour. Listeners always enjoy our playing. I'm appreciated by local musicians and students. Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I like to emphasize for younger students, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for playing music. I'm always looking to bring on new students of all ages! Read More

My teaching method varies depending on their age. From 4 years to 8 years i use an advance learning method, which consists of developing reading and playing based on color coding music notes. For people 9 and up the method i use is the traditional method from the Cuban and Spaniard school. This consists of developing the three characteristics of a musician. The first characteristic called Theory consists of the learning everything concerning music theory and the instrument. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar
I've been playing bass for 13yrs and guitar for about 9yrs. I started out learning to play bass in the church and took lessons from the Pastor's son for a few months. Eventually became self-taught and learned from bassists that I admired and formed my own style of playing. I went on to teach friends, family, and church folk what I know about bass and music. I have played in a few church bands as well as rock and punk bands in the Southern California area. Read More

I began teaching music at the age of 15, primarily guitar and piano lessons for beginners ages 7-14 in my hometown of Parker, CO. At 16 I began teaching my students basic music theory and intermediate instrumental instruction. I moved to Boston in 2012 to pursue an undergraduate degree in Songwriting from Berklee College of Music in Boston, still actively teaching throughout my curriculum. I have now taught over 200 students ages 4 to 64 a wide variety of music-related subjects, including: piano, guitar, bass, voice, music theory, D.A.W. and notation software, and contemporary songwriting.

My style of teaching is personal and caring. Whether my students develop a desire to pursue music beyond our lessons, I care about their happiness and personal success in life. I develop a relationship with my students and I really enjoy it when I hear that they used a concept I taught them in our music lessons for something beyond music. I at least hope to instill a strong understanding and enjoyment of music in each of my students which they can share with the people in their life. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Effective practice equals regular practice. Take the stress off of thinking about how often you practice and create a simple practice habit complete with a trigger, action, reward, and belief. I am addicted to coffee. I will not drink a cup of coffee unless I have practiced. Every day when I wake up, I start the coffee maker, which takes about 20 minutes to brew. During that brew time, I practice string bass. Now that my practice has been made more regular, I have gotten much better, and I have been able to recognize greater rewards beyond a cup of joe. These include, feeling great, sounding great, and greater opportunities. Some days though I really, really, really, don't want to practice. On those days I have to remember WHY I decided to practice in the first place. I love helping people. I support my family, friends, and my musical peers with my consistency on the string bass. When I take days off of practice, I believe that it directly hurts them and I don't want that! So, why do you want to practice?
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
When your child was born, your family did not give them the silent treatment until they were deemed "ready" for speech did they? Who would ever do that?? Instead they were exposed to numerous native speakers on a daily basis until they said their first word. (Mine was "light") Even now, your child receives languages lessons of the highest caliber from people all around them. Music is similar to language in that kids learn quickly at a young age. That is why singing nursery rhymes with your child was so important! (Way to go!) . Now, if your child is experiencing less opportunity to make music, or if they need extra support with expressing themselves creatively, music lessons are a fantastic option. Aside from all of the neurological benefits music provides children, it is a great way to have fun and make friends. If your child is ready for that, then they are probably ready for music lessons!
When will I start to see results?
Your instructor is responsible for guiding you to the results that you are hoping for, but if your idea of results is headlining at Red Rocks and you just learned how to tune your instrument, you may be waiting for a while. On the other hand, highlighting results like knowing how to breathe properly, can be super boring and uninspiring. Here are some results that I like to see in my own musical life : not getting lost in a song, listening to others while I play, playing for somebody sick, playing an old song for a memory patient, having fun while practicing, making a friend who plays my instrument, playing a recital, not losing focus while practicing, creating something, being comfortable with playing... Having an instructor is a great way to help you stay motivated and focus on what is really important along every step of your musical journey. Go get some results!
