For beginning students, I prefer to use the Bastien piano method. This serious comes in 4 levels and is very thorough The Bastien series offers numerous books for each level in addition to the lesson book. Each level comes with a recital book, a arepertoire book, and a theory book for students to write in. The solo repertoire book is exciting because it showcases the child's ability to interpret concepts learned in the lesson book. Read More

For beginning piano students, I use Alfred's basic Piano Library. This works well with young children as it has colorful pictures and easy to understand language.

For beginning Guitar students, we go over the parts of the guitar and learn how to tune the instrument. Read More

I always expect simply the best the student can do and believe strongly in the saying that the best you can do is always good enough. Read More
