I teach based on what is best suited for the learner. All students learn differently and at different speeds.

Students will be encouraged to practice and will be recognized when they have success and accomplishments. Learning about the student also helps me to understand their future goals with music.

For instrumental students, I work on a lot of music theory and reading, for students of all levels and ages. Read More
