For beginning students who have never touched music in their lives (mostly children), I start out with the Hal Leonard's Essential Elements book of their chosen instrument. From there, we learn how to read music, play in time, and play the instrument itself. Once the student feels comfortable with the practices in the book, I move on to introduce solo repertoire to prepare for a recital. Of course, if they are in their school band, we will focus on perfecting their given band music. Read More

I have also taught general music in groups of 15-20 students from Kindergarten to 8th grade for three years, as well as another three years at the American School of El Salvador as band and combo professor.
