I taught general music, choir, piano, and band in the public schools. I also worked in an after school youth orchestra, teaching woodwinds. Before that, I taught guitar to friends and some beginning students. I also helped my classmates who were learning guitar. I have mostly worked with beginners, and some more intermediate students. I have taught in the classroom setting and small group lessons, and some one-on-one lessons. I feel my greatest strength is teaching beginners and elementary aged students. Read More
Instruments: Trombone
For beginning students who are members of performing ensembles, I will use the instruction book that their group is working out of. I focus on building good fundamentals and technique. I always set aside time in my lessons so I can help my students with the music that they are currently playing in my ensemble. I will also help my students select a challenging solo piece that they can perform at solo ensemble events. Read More

For beginning students who are ages 8-13 will first use the Standard of Excellence red book and then they will transfer to the blue book. Intermediate and Advance will use the Foundations for superior performance book. We will start to pick solos that they are able to play and work on them. For Advanced we will also use the selected studies book and the Arban book in our studies. Solos will be picked based on their ability and skill level. Read More

My fundamental philosophy is to provide each student with a methodical approach to achieving, developing and maintaining a well balanced set of skills. Beyond the technique of how to make "your best" sound, and the efforts to build skills, I make efforts to instill the concept of "Procedural Memory" in creating, developing and expanding a "complete sense of flow in playing." Have a plan and always play musically. It's "HOW" you practice that counts! Read More

I am a music instructor with a wide variety of experiences, knowledge, and pedagogical approaches. Since I began teaching private, I have had students of all ages and ability levels achieve success, including one student who was accepted into the Colorado All-State Band and All-State Orchestra. In addition to private teaching, I currently teach music classes to all ages of students at a home school enrichment program, where I also direct the after-school band program. Read More
