Over the past 2-3 years, I've had the pleasure of working with many students and helping them find a unique voice. Music should be enjoyed, and I try to cater to the students needs, whether they need to work on something or if they're curious about certain concepts. I do encourage students to ask as many questions as possible, as not only does it keep them constantly learning, but it also allows me to guide them in the best possible manner to achieve their own musical goals and pursuits.

I always listen to what the student has to say and I make sure that what we are currently working on always relate to the student's goals. I also record every lesson and send them to the student right after we are done. That way the student can listen back and have all the informations that I gave during the lesson available right away. It is also very important to me that the lessons be entertaining, fun and focused as soon as possible on real music that the student wants to learn. Read More
