My teaching method is very keen to diagrams. In my experience, it can be hard to visualize some of the terminology that is provided my teachers. Using diagrams helps to put the instructors words into a more visual format. I also like teaching through some of the students favorite songs, it really helps keep the student interested in the lesson as a whole. Read More

I started playing flute when I found out I couldn't wear it! Really, I started playing when I was 12 years old. I was inspired by my older brother a jazz saxaphonist and multi talented instrumentalist. He introduced me to the flute and now today I'm a passionate and motivated flutist. I love playing the Silver alto flute, Native American Love flute, The quaina and Pan flutes from South America, the Bansuri flute from India and all different types of world flutes. Read More

I try my best to tailor my lessons according to each student's needs and goals. If he/she wants to learn a song they know, I highly encourage that! Bring on the Star Wars, Harry Potter, the Beatles, or Adele! I have been using Faber Adventures for many years but feel there is not "one" method that stands out as the superior source. I always provide supplemental material so that students can have fun and recognize what they play. Read More

The best thing about teaching is, by far, seeing the improvement and motivation within your student. I have found through my past experiences, that when my teacher is truly dedicated to their craft, and wants their student to succeed, the more successful both parties are. I believe in encouragement, but while also correcting when needed. In my studio, I hope to create a safe learning environment where mistakes are not just encouraged, but celebrated. Read More

Each student will take part in their progress through practice and/or research between lessons. I will tailor each lesson based on the students wants, likes, and need by first understanding the student as an individual. Read More
