Every student is different and has different dreams, needs and goals. So, my teaching style relies heavily on communicating with my students and their parents, if applicable. My first lesson is focused on setting goals for yourself and unearthing musical dreams and ideas. The following lessons are about hitting that goal as soon as possible.

Most students have a regular weekly time, but some students need a variable time due to their individual schedule so we work that out in advance. Read More
