I would describe my lesson style as fun, friendly, focused and goal-oriented.

Instruments: Guitar, Flute, Ukulele, Piccolo, Electric Guitar

I began private teaching while studying in college and am looking to expand and build a studio in The Greater Seattle Area.  I have taught my own students and acted as a substitute teaching instructor ; nurturing and respecting the teaching styles already presented to the students. During my schooling in Boston, I studied Alexander Technique and always try to incorporate body awareness when working with students! I have helped former students achieve their goals for auditions and recitals, and enjoy helping students find a piece that really sparks their interest. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Voice, Bass Guitar, Ukulele, Mandolin, Double Bass, Music, Keyboard, Electric Guitar, Classical Guitar, Acoustic Guitar

Always based on the student's individual needs and likes/dislikes. When teaching a lone student, one has to make a judgment call based on how this person learns, behaves, and interacts with music.

There is no guaranteed best method for every student - however, I will always use a combination of my best judgment for a student with something they are interested in. Read More

All the while I've continued to hone my skills as a drummer and I have been fortunate to play with dozens of artists in every genre from classical and jazz to gospel, rock, and country. Read More

I have been teaching for thirty years and find it very rewarding. I like to use classical studies as a core for development and then bring in music of other genres for a diverse background. I also like to use music that the students are interested in. I believe it is important to be a literate musician as well as training to play by ear; to understand theory for improvising and to understand standard performing practice. Read More
