I approach teaching like nursing a baby ,u care for the baby,u feed the baby when hungry,u cover the babies body from catching cold , you teach the baby how to eat ,u hug the baby when he or she start crying, when she wants to go put her hand in the fire u stop her and tell her in advance what she’s going to experience.when she’s 18 you start to tell her to set goals and always drive hard to achieve them ,you tell her to never give up and be distracted by boys,you’d tell to always keep learning in life because the day you stop learning you start dying.

I have several years of private music instruction I have taught at my own studio, Mars Music Learning Center and Modern School of Music. During that time I hadvery good retention rates keeping some students for years. Because consistency is sometimes the most important aspect of success I make every effort to limit cancelations. I have taught people that have never played a note to people that are highly skilled. Read More
