My style is one that seamlessly adapts to all ages, learning styles, and backgrounds, resulting in a high student retention rate over the years. I provide an exciting and positive environment for students to not only learn fundamentals and techniques, but also to find and express their unique musical voice. As lessons progress at the student's pace, it's important to keep discovering what they love about music and what inspires them to learn (song, artist, style, musician friend). Read More

Hello, I began teaching professionally 9 years ago in my home studio. I first started with guitar lessons. I am very passionate about aiding and supporting the growth of students. I provide students with the skills needed for the complete understanding of the language of music. This equips the student to learn any kind of music that is desired. Students are then able to learn classical, jazz, blues, rock, and popular music. Read More

When my students first start I start them on the Suzuki method until they get to book 4. While they are learning from that certain method I do encourage students to tell me what songs they enjoy listening to and we will choose easy versions of the song that keeps them motivated and excited. Once my students pass book 4 of Suzuki we start getting advanced music including scale books, etudes, and concertos. Read More

I have taught quite literally all ages. 5-75. Styles and lesson books used varied depending upon student and school. I usually taught Suzuki for violin, viola and classical guitar (tend to prefer Scott Tennant Pumping Nylon book for classical guitar though). And usually Faber Piano Adventures for young piano students. Eventually going to Clementi Sonatinas and Chopin Preludes. Also Mel Bay Modern Guitar for beginning rock/jazz guitarists. Then eventually going to Mickey Bakers Jazz Guitar books. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
I encourage younger students to practice each piece 5 times a day. I switched to this method of practice after watching my own children whittile away 20 minutes on the bench achieving very little! Once the student is past the first couple of books, I encourage them to start breaking the difficult parts into 2 or 4 measures, and practice them slowly, 3 times perfectly, with a metronome if needed. Then, they can increase the metronome 1 tick at a time. Doing this over a few days, produces remarkable results!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
After teaching a variety of younger students, I find that once a student can read, they are ready to take lessons. This age is quite subjective, from 4 to 8 really. But, generally, once a child can read, they can sit for 10-15 minutes in order to practice. If we start much earlier, the parent would most likely need to sit with the child during practice, which is usually not practical.
When will I start to see results?
This is usually in direct proportion to the student's practice and attendance record! If the student is practicing 5-6 times a week, and attending lessons regularly, then we can expect to progress through the book at an expected rate. Missed lessons and no practice means that we will spend much time reviewing during the lesson, which is discouraging to the student and the teacher. That said, sometimes review lessons are needed, which is a normal part of teaching. You should expect your child to be playing recognisable melodies sometime within the first 6 months of lessons.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Music was a part of my family life as my dad plays the trombone and directed the choir at our church for many years. I had a variety of music teachers when I was young, and played in the band and orchestra from the time I was in 5th grade through my senior year of highschool, and into college. I find that each teacher had something to give, so I tried to learn a little from each. One taught the importance of slow metronome practice, while another emphasized musicallity, another improvization, and so much more!
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
My older brother started playing the piano when I was 6, and so of course I wanted to play as well! I was so excited to start music lessons while I was 8 years old! I enjoyed it at first, but there were several bumps along the way once the music started getting hard. I'm so thankful that my parents encouraged me to stick with playing the piano, as I eventually majored in it in college. But, my favourite instrument during my childhood was the flute. I enjoyed the pretty sound, but there is nothing like the thrill of playing in a band or orchestra, with all the instruments around you, while you make music together!
