Instruments: Piano, Drums

For Beginners, I usually begin with very rudimentary stick control patterns to get used to how the stick feels in the hands.

I like to keep lessons fun and engaging for students of all skill levels and ages, so along with assignments I will come up with improvised grooves and patterns on the spot Read More

Instruments: Piano, Clarinet

I began teaching piano and clarinet while I was in high school. I currently teach 1st grade in the Fairfield area as well as have a few private students.

I would much rather have a student who practices daily for 15 minutes then a student who does not practice except for the day before their lesson for two hours. Read More
