The teaching I have done started roughly around my earlier college days. I wasn't a teacher then, but I did help out with my fellow musicians on some of the basics that they couldn't understand from the teachers. Since then, I occasionally helped out with fellow musicians with their music on advice and teaching. Some of things I want to setup are music education with special programs of performances of the urban areas. I have been teaching since 2015, for both private and clinical teachings, so my students are encourage to do regular practice routine base on my materials. My teaching is base solely on the love of what they want to play and the material they can play comfortable to them. I love it when my students have questions about musical things and they are especially encourage to bring whatever they feel they want to talk about everything is an teaching subject based around music. Whether it be new music, compositions they created, music they love to listen, troubling parts or just want to share their experiences in band, I'm happy for them to bring those things up that we can share those subject and discuss in detail about. I want my students to have an enjoyable time during lesson, classes, and clinics, but balance everything into teaching and learning something new!

First and foremost my method of teaching are nearly based upon my own teachers teaching style, which was using a small material to teach everything on it. Example, I would take a small little line or phrase of music, I would teach them the construct of rhythm, time, tempo, the style, articulation, and then apply the exercises or fudamentals around learning how to play the line properly. For young beginners, I personally start with Standard of Excellence book to learn the basic fundamentals, and get them setup. When I know they have progress I then will add a newer level of material work on to build fundamental from different other books while simultaneously working on how to play repertoire properly. With each newer levels and adding a new subject to talk about, that will be applied. For older or more experience players, I look into finding certain problem area that deappreicate their advance playing and overall sound. When we find these problem, we works specially on them to basically get rid of. Require a great amount listen to one self, there will be silly moment that will be "OH I GET." But with the high interval of listening to one self, I'll still keep it fun engagment for them to understand.
