Overview:
I have enjoyed teaching and helping students of all ages for 24 years in achieving their goals in learning to play their instruments. Educated at Columbus State University with a Music Education degree, I teach many instruments including piano, guitar, including Classical style, banjo, saxophone, clarinet and flute. If you would like to start on the trumpet or trombone, I can help you as well. I specialize in working with the novice musician, giving them a solid foundation in instrumental technique and musical knowledge. I can also help the more accomplished player advance to the level he or she desires.
EXPERIENCE
I have played professionally in big bands and started my own band in a corporate environment. I have led church orchestras and played various instruments in the church as well and also have sung solo works and participated in church choirs. I enjoy singing in a casual environment karaoke style. My primary focus has been teaching others to play and to perform their own music.
METHODS USED
I have used many of the published methods for all of the instruments over the years. I am always open to any approach that will work for any given student.
LESSON STYLE
My goal for every student is to experience learning their instruments in an environment that is both encouraging and rewarding. I exhibit patience with the student knowing what it takes to develop new skills and I work hard in helping each student feel at ease in expressing themselves. I have used many different materials over the years, depending on the individual student's needs and desires to play their music. I do stress learning to read music notation so that you can approach with confidence any piece of music that you would like to play. With the proper dedication, every student can enjoy making music in a short period of time, getting better and better along their musical journey.
