Music Lessons in Baton Rouge, LA

Instruments: Piano Clarinet Music Keyboard

I have been teaching in New Orleans and expanding my studio for over four years. I love to meet my students where they are, push them to be the best musician they can be, and support them in achieving their goals. One way I do that is through asking them challenging questions that require them to apply previous concepts we've learned and reasoning. Another way is training students to use the metronome early on. Read More

I have once heard that the pursuit of music leads to a lifetime of happiness, and I am a firm believer in that mantra. My ultimate goal is for all my students to find joy in learning, studying, and playing music. Therefore, I often tried to make my lessons engaging and enjoyable. My students not only play the notes on the page, but learn about the background of the music they play, the history and the aerodynamics of the instrument that they play. Read More

For those who are just starting on an instrument, I usually focus on basic technique. Bass and guitar are both physical instruments in their own way, and getting acclimated to the feel of it is key to having success on it. For bass, I typically teach out of the Suzuki book series, while as for guitar, I use the Hal Leonard's Essential Elements, however, I am happy to teach whatever method a student or their parents feel strongly about.

Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone

I like to teach by setting both short- and long-term goals with the student. My personal goal is to help the student learn a healthy and strong passion for music and to prepare them to accomplish their ambitions and to continue playing after they are finished working with me, whether it is as an amateur, as a continuing student, as a conservatory student, or as a professional. I want to equip each student to be an auto-didact, capable of teaching themselves, and to be able to teach music themselves. Read More
