I adapt my instructional methods uniquely to each student and the instrument that they'd like to learn. For some instruments, I refer to specific methods that I have experience in. For example, for Piano I would refer to the Suzuki method for young children, while for Euphonium/Baritone and Trombone I would refer to Alfred's Accent on Achievement series. Many students often come with their own questions or concepts that they'd like to learn, so I often integrate their ideas into my lesson plans, most often for 'ukulele and guitar. Read More

When it comes to drumset, I also use a combination of my own lessons and instructional books. For example, I use the famous "Syncopation" book for students when they are ready to learn snare drum and bass drum together. I can also transcribe songs for drumset and I program midi files of music for students when they are having trouble with a particular part of a song or a specific rhythmic pattern or concept.
