I have taught individual private lessons for the last seven years and I have continued to perform and compose. I want all of my students to play to the best of their ability and in accordance with their playing style while truly enjoy playing! I use traditional methods in a way that allows for individual pacing. I teach traditional methods, focusing both on strong technical ability and lively, soulfully inspired playing. Read More

I want to give my student the experience of success from the start. With an appropriate printed resource, and audio recordings to listen to, they are equipped with the materials for self-study from the start. During the lesson itself, the student would be singing or playing at least half of the time. During this current stay-at-home lifestyle, I propose having lessons over Zoom. I would like to work toward a performance goal, such as playing at a recital, or playing in an ensemble. Read More
Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Violin, Saxophone, Clarinet
My lessons are structured with attention paid to the fundamentals of each instrument and the fundamentals of music. I have learned that when a student practices a mistake over and over it remains a mistake. I immediately slow the student down and concentrate on just a measure or even two notes to accomplish correct rhythm, fingerings, articulations and phrasing. When the student can successfully play a passage correctly then the work turns into fun music making. Read More

I enjoy teaching because I have a love for music. It's my hope that this love and motivation to play well will be passed on to my students. It's so rewarding to me to see my students learning and growing in their musical abilities. I offer plenty of praise and encouragement. I like to see parents enjoying their children's progress as they master their chosen instrument. It's worth the time and effort to develop these skills. Read More

All lesson plans are centered around each individual student, their interests, and skill level. All students will learn different etudes that foster technical development and support their solo repertoire. For students that are less experienced they will work out of the Essentials for Strings series. Other early string series books can be considered if already purchased by the student. More advanced students will use the Kreutzer etudes. Beginning to Intermediate students will typically choose solo repertoire from the Suzuki series, but are welcome to suggest anything they want to learn. Read More
