I have experience teaching music all over the world. I have travelled to Canada, Russia, and Swaziland to work with children. I have taught guitar, voice, and general music lessons to those children. Additionally, I have been teaching guitar lessons here in the States for over two years. I love teaching music and think that everyone deserves an equal opportunity to quality music education. While I don't have a lot of professional teaching experience I am currently learning how to teach music in school and love to research new teaching methods and ideas. I enjoy teaching people of all ages, but I specialize in children and young adults. I love to have fun with my students and and show them how to enjoy music, even when you're just practicing!

For beginner students, I like to start with general music understanding before jumping into the specifics. I will make sure the students can read and understand music so that when we start with harder materials it will be easier and more fun. I will make sure that the students have songs and music books that they will enjoy learning and performing. I will leave it up to the students if they wish to do a recital. If they choose to, I will help them prepare a professional and fun repertoire to perform! As we progress through the lessons I will assign songs but also take requests from the students. Most importantly, I will make sure the student is having fun and learning throughout the entire lesson.
