Instruments: Piano, Saxophone, Clarinet, Oboe, Music

For beginning students enrolled in their school band program, I start with their materials required from class. If a student is not enrolled in a band program, I typically start with Standards of Excellence or Measures of Success methods depending on individual needs. I will also suggest additional methods of scale and repertoire study as students progress for solo performances. For beginning piano students, I use the Alfred Basic Piano course. Read More

Instruments: Clarinet, Drums, Mallet Percussion, Orchestral Percussion, Music

Every student I teach privately gets their own individualized lesson plans. Whether you are an audio, visual, or kinesthetic learner, I will adapt to your needs the best that I can. For beginning students, in percussion I usually start with Standard of Excellence and in drum-set I write my own beginning parts focused on the fundamentals. As the students skill level progresses I get them on books such as The Drummers Bible, Stick Control, Developing Dexterity, and solo works. Read More

I like Faber and Faber piano adventures because they teach a lot like I do.

I love to see kids progress in music and become excited about it!! My teaching style is very paced and hands on. If a student isn't getting something, I like to slow it down until they they do.

I also try to give the student a guideline on how to practice and how to pace themselves throughout this process. Read More
