I will provide students with diagrams on what is called guitar tablature, which is the easiest way to read music for guitar, for various chords and scales. Students will be able to play songs and guitar riffs by their favorite bands as well as create their own music and even create their own guitar solos and improvise over chords. I can teach students songs they want to learn as well provide music for songs that will help them learn chords and guitar riffs. Read More

I'm a passionate and motivated instructor who loves working with students and sharing my love of music. In 1985, I graduated from the US Army College of Music with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Piano-Clarinet Performance. Performing all over the world has been one of the greatest experiences of my life as a musician, and I've had the opportunity touring the United States and Europe with several performances as the principal clarinetist with the United States Army Band.

For students who are children I like to start to start learning rhythms through common children’s songs to show how easy music can be. Depending on the instrument, one of the many Hal Leonard books is always a good option. If they are a little older, I will use music that they like to teach how music theory and fundamental skills makes up all the musi they enjoy. We will often learn songs that speak to them and I will use their favorite genres to curate new songs to teach and show them new material and how it relates to their instrument. Read More

I have been teaching private lessons for the past eight years. I have taught from beginners to college-level lessons. I have found that passion and progress are key factors in younger students. I enjoy combining the classic pieces for each instrument, but also adding in modern music so the students can really enjoy and have the motivation to practice. My students are encouraged to perform in competitions, recitals, and end of the year recitals. Read More
