The important part of being an instructor is not the actual material to be taught but being able to clear the way for the student to learn and teach himself, as well as providing a direction towards understanding the instrument and music through the taste and necessities of each student.

I am sure that doing at least 30 minutes technique exercises every day is the best way to feel comfortable with our instrument quickly. Read More

I start the student off with basic fundamentals. Basic scales and chords. I'll start to give the student more advanced material once they start making more progress.

Once they can figure out a certain fundamental I'll help them build upon on it and work at it from different angles do understand it better. Read More

I see teaching that each student will be different and learn at different rates. Having work with all levels of students, I understand that and recognize that I want to tailor my lessons to the students needs so they can be most successful.
