Instruments: Bass Guitar Double Bass

My approach to teaching music is essentially a synthesis of my formal music education and a distillation of what I have learned from my experiences gigging.

This feel can only be achieved through developing one's sensitivities to pitch and time. Read More

I am a passionate piano performer who wants to show people the beauty of the instrument and its immense capabilities.

I feel that it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals and assignments for my students at each lesson. This measurable progression of accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. Of course finding out the students problem areas is also paramount to helping them progress at the fastest rate possible. I also believe that while our relationship is professional, I do take a personal interest in each of my students as some of the best teachers I have ever had, took a personal interest in me.

Once they have grasped how the instrument and chords work, we continue on to melodies and simple 3 chord songs. Read More
