I bring three overarching goals to captivate, challenge, and fascinate each individual student, each rooted in my understanding of teaching as an invitation to relationship. The primary goal is to develop respect. I will model and explicitly lay out guidelines that make passionate yet respectful exchanges of musical ideas possible, and the student is expected and encouraged to return the sentiment. A successful learning environment is established in a place where mutual commitment and earnest discipline rest at an equilibrium. Read More

My first conversation with students is what they would like to learn. This doesnt have to be specifically about one instrument, but what they would like to become as a musician. What music do the students enjoy? What inspires them? Who are their musical influences? I have taught students to have developmental issues. I have taught gifted students. The biggest teaching method I have is to be flexible because no two students learn alike. Read More
