I try to burn a more passionate, positive fire under my students, rather then make them dread going to lessons. For Adults: I go at the speed and pace you want to go at!

Having great teachers in my life has shaped my own approach to teaching.

To that end, I encourage students to bring in original material as well as "covers" that they are interested in to build a repertoire. Read More
