I separate my methods of teaching into 6 different areas - all of which can be adapted to any skill level. 1) reading and music literacy. Focus on music literacy not only helps my students read music more seamlessly but it also reinforces technique and comprehensive development. Main music literature focused on is George Lewis Stone "Stick Control," Louis Bellson "Modern Reading Text in 4/4," Ted Reed's "Progressive Steps to Syncopation," and for more advance students the rhythm concepts of Mark Dresser and Ed Harkins.
