Even though I am still in school I actually have a job as a music educator already! I teach at a private school and I absolutely love my job! I am a self taught instrumentalist but I also have taken lessons as well. I do not have a huge amount of private lesson teaching but I have experience group teaching and teaching a class. I only want the best for my students and I want them to succeed and have a love and appreciation for music. I want music to be fun and exciting and something they want to do and want to continue to do. I will and always do encourage my students to see the best in themselves and to strive for it as well and that they can and will do whatever they set their minds to!

For a beginner student, I tend to use the Rubank method books there are several for specific instruments. This book is just a guide though the majority of my lessons are student based. I take into consideration their level and what they can accomplish in their own practice and dedication. For adults or advanced students I want to see where they are and what they need help or work with. I will look at technique and areas of improvement and start getting them into harder repetoire. I want my students to enjoy what they are doing as well. I want to cater to what they like maybe as a special lesson let them relax and learn a pop song or rock song something that they like to keep them motivated and loving playing.
