I began teaching professionally in the Bay Area about 30 years ago. I have taught in a variety of settings includings classes, group lessons, in music stores, for school districts, at students' homes and in my own private studio.

I also like to set goals at each lesson and have a time frame of what the expectations are for the following lesson. Read More
