If you are not interested in that part of music, I will just sneak it in as necessary. Having had so much experience with so many apposing methods, I myself have learned that there are as many different types of learners as there are types of people, so it is best to let the student show you what works for them. I never have to push any students to practice because my method surrounds the students goals and abilities that they actually want to achieve. Read More

With my wind instrument and percussion students, I like to start with a method book. My favorites include Essential Elements and Standard of Excellence. I find that, especially for younger students, this is a great way to introduce beginner theory while learning to apply it to their playing. I spend a great deal of time discussing the importance of breath and practicing breathing gym exercises. My piano method book of choice varies depending on the skill level of the student. Read More

My teaching experience began while studying piano performance at SFA! At first, I was a little concerned with how I would manage as a student teacher; however, as the semesters went by, I fell in love with the process. I’ve grown to learn how each student is different, not only in their personalities, but the way they process what’s in front of them. The time they take to learn their material is very important to me, and the more I see them grow, the more accomplished and proud I feel as a teacher! Read More
