I customize each lesson specifically for my students so that they remain satisfied and fulfilled with what they are learning.Each student has different interests and its my job to build a music curriculum around them. I usually encourage my students to have both a method book for fundamental skills, and a performance book with pieces that they want to learn. We will decide this after the first introductory lesson.

As mentioned above, I like to begin with basic theory. Once the student has grasped the basic concept of half and full steps, major and minor note, flats and sharps, we can start practicing some tunes. In the beginning I try to incorporate 10 minutes at the beginning of every lesson, as well as some key finger exercises. Parallel to the theory and exercises, we will begin with the major chord finger positions, and then progress to minors, etc.. Read More
