I finish with giving them a homework assignment and making sure they understand what to practice for next week. Read More

I also teach by analysis, guiding my students to observe how the music is put together, so that they understand the similarities and the contrasts from the start. This is a way to teach about the structure of music and alows for easier practice of the music between lessons. Read More

The lessons for young kids are always relaxing, and I will plan to put more or less content depending on their mood. Read More

Younger students would need more structure with practice guide and be having more synesthetic activities such as sining, tapping, mild dancing and more. Read More
