Drum Lessons Mountain

Instruments: Piano, Drums, Orchestral Percussion, Conga, Latin Percussion

I take a very individual approach to my teaching plans- each student has their own attention spans, goals, interests and abilities! When I was first learning piano, I was frustrated by the music choices my teacher was picking for me and this usually made me not in the mood to practice. Over the years I've collected, written and purchased various pieces and exercises for both piano and percussion that allow me to create custom lessons for my students. Read More

Instruments: Drums

I am new to teaching, so I take a practical approach to my teaching style by being mindful of each student's personality and strengths, and then build upon a foundation of respect for each other. When a student is eager to learn, that makes my job easier and we can move forward into the next level of mastery. When a student is only somewhat interested, I slow down to help them figure out how to proceed. Read More

I have taught piano for nearly a decade. As I was growing up, my mother taught piano in our house and I started learning at five years old. When I was twelve, I took on my first student, who was about four years old at the time. Since then, I have taught in a variety of settings, from double teaming pairs of students with my mother to teaching cello, piano, drums, and basic music skills online to students living in Haiti, France, and across the United States!

This year (2013), I am celebrating my 25th year of playing drums professionally and my 15th year of teaching. I have loved playing the drums and making music from the first time i ever grabbed a stick and connected with a drum. I have never wanted to do anything else with my life and i love sharing my knowledge about the power of making music and all the different ways that investing the time to learn an instument can pay off in a person's life.
