Having a teacher realize I was struggling, and taking the time to work with me gave me the confidence I needed to carry on and slowly but surely hone my craft. I don't believe in the idea that "some people just aren't good at things like music." Music is a gift, and even the most stubborn or frustrated student can learn. It's all in the mindset. I don't allow students to let the "I can't do this" attitude and ideology enter their minds. Read More

I think it is super important that music be relaxed and fun. Many teachers throughout my life have adopted an approach based around harsh negative reinforcement which I've now had to spend years unlearning in my practice.

I began assisting teachers during high school for extra credit. It later became my job during Full Sail. I worked extensively with grades K-5 on reading, writing and math skills enrichment.

The method I begin with depends on what the student responds to best.  I first try to show them how enjoyable music is and how they can share it with family members and friends,including popular and holiday music and songs they may sing at church.

There are two selected teaching methods that I confer with in order to select the most appropriate method for my students. For my beginning students, I select Schaum (Books 1-3) for piano lessons, and Benners Book One for theory lessons. The Schaum methods offers bright and color-coded books, which reflects that various learning levels. Once the students have attained the basic keyboard and theory fundamentals, the students will be given an assessment of their mastery, they will advance to the immediate level. Read More

My method for teaching is to customize an appropriate style depending upon the necessity of what the students needs are. Typically, for a novice-piano/keyboard student, I began with one or two Hanon drills to strengthen the third and fourth fingers; as they are usually the weaker fingers in beginners. From that point, the student may express stylistic desires, as prioritizing the students interest is a profound trait for ensuing retention. Read More
