I start by gathering information about a student's goals and inspirations, and prior knowledge/experience. From there, we develop a plan for warmup exercises, technical exercises, literature, sight-reading, ear-training and listening excerpts to be studied. I determine whether the student needs to begin learning primarily by ear or using some kind of written notation. We find a schedule that will work with both of us. Most students have a regular weekly time, but some students need a variable time due to their individual schedule so we work that out in advance. Read More

For young beginner students, I typically use the Suzuki method, as that is the way I was trained. Ill also implement other books/techniques as I find useful, such as Feuillard, Cossmann, Duport, and Starker. However, I understand that not every student learns the same way, and I love formulating a plan that works well for each student. Students often come with on their own goals for repertoire in mind, and I wanna do my best to accommodate those. Read More

For the beginning string player I like to start with a Hal Leonard method book to communicate and help string players master the basics. Once the student has progressed I will begin some solo repertoire from varying genres. I find it is always helpful to allow students to play music that they enjoy - experiencing a range of both popular and classical pieces to broaden their horizons. I encourage my students to do a lot of listening as a part of their practice. Read More
