Instruments: Trumpet Trombone Euphonium French Horn Tuba

For young beginning students, I really like to emphasize the fundamentals using whatever book the student uses for their band class. Once they get a good grasp on the fundamentals, then I start to introduce some solo repertoire appropriate to their skill level. For students who are older, I like to find out what area of the trumpet they want to improve on and structure our lessons to try and improve on those areas, as well as incorporate other fundamentals and solo repertoire. I try to make the lessons as fun as possible and geared towards what the student wants to learn.

Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone Flute Organ

I like to challenge my students when I feel they should be. I also try very hard to showcase them whenever possible to show the community the great talent that is amongst us. I would have to say my main approach to teaching is figuring out what works best for each individual student, seeing as though everyone learns differently and at different paces. Forcing a student to learn something when they don't want to is something I do not allow, I can only encourage but not force. Read More

One of the things that puts a smile on my face is seeing one of my students develop a passion for music as well as a passion for learning.

Recognizing accomplishments and setting goals fuels a students desire to progress and grow, I believe it also provides the students with a determination to learn more. Read More

Every lesson I give is different, depending on how the student learns and how they’re motivated. My teaching style is energetic and positive, yet with realistically high standards.

Also, I find out what other interests/hobbies the student has so I can make interdisciplinary musical connections. Read More
