My main philosophy is that every student is different and should be treated accordingly. The methods I use are specifically tailored to each student and can be methods that I have learned or developed myself. I start students off by asking them collect ideas about their instrument and the music they enjoy. From that point, I begin to simultaneously teach technique and musicianship in relation to their expressed interests. The key to my teaching method is that I ask difficult questions and then I give the student time to think and develop an answer. Read More

I started teaching professionally in Sarasota, FL with a private music school in 1999. I have taught private lessons both at the studio and in students' homes. I also taught group lessons through the Police Athletic League and a local middle school. I love sharing my library of music with my students, and I encourage my students to listen to a variety of music to expand their musical knowledge and to practice, practice, practice! Read More
