Every students needs and ability to learn is unique to them. I find that no one method works universally, but my experience has helped me gained a wealth of knowledge and different ways to deliver them to the student.

I will have a student play, no matter the level so I can asses and start crafting a curriculum customized to their needs and wants. Read More

I love learning, I love teaching, and I love music! I have been very fortunate that I was in a competitive high school band program, and for the very high quality professors I had at West Texas AM (graduated 2004). I had a world class percussion instructor, Dr. Susan Tariq, that was very patient and supportive to me in building my instrument technique, best approaches to things like different styles and different composers, and to a level of professionalism visually and acoustically.

For Beginner, I usually use Hal Leonard's Essential book for younger students and Rubank's elementary book for older students. These books can use up to intermediate students and some easy solo pieces from the trombone gems collection by H.A. VanderCook. For intermediate to advanced students playing trombone for more than two years, I would use Melodious Etudes for Trombone Selected from the Vocalises of Marco Bordogni book one and Arban Complete Method for Trombone and Euphonium.

Aloha mai kakou! My name is Sam and I am a music teacher in the Four Corners region. I grew up in the Hawaiian Islands in a family of musicians, and learned how to play and perform on multiple instruments, surrounded by many different genres of music. After spending years in high school playing in different bands and traveling Hawai'i, I moved to Wisconsin to attend Lawrence University, a liberal arts college and music conservatory where I continued to perform and hone my techniques and teaching skills.
