Once the expert students have begun to polish their style, we will go deeper into the music industry and how musicians can work on their brand, image, message, and intent with their music. some lessons will be primarily listening, as it is vital for musicians to have a strong ear, as well as muscle memory with their particular instrument.

I've always believed that learning comes 50% from the teacher, and 50% from the student. I do teach through lesson books but I've always found that they're better used as a guide rather than the focus of every lesson.

I've always been willing to go the extra mile for my students, not just show up every week and continue from page 20 to see how far we get in the lesson book. Read More
