I approach each student in their own unique way based on their own goals and experiences.

For beginning trumpet students, I start with a combination of Clark and Arbank Technical studies for a formal structure. A majority of the technical teaching I do is based on these two methods.

Instruments: Piano

I prefer to instruct out of the James Bastien method books for the student's main lesson assignments. However, I also encourage students to bring and play out of books that inspire and motivate them individually.

Once the student is able to reliably play their first notes in a rhythmic fashion, we can begin working on introducing music notation into the equation.
