Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone Euphonium Tuba

With young beginner students, I start with either the Essential Elements books for wind instruments or the Faber method for piano. After basic musical skills have been developed I'll move on to more interesting solo pieces based on the interests and needs of the students. With adults, I tend to talk to them a little more specifically about what their musical goals and influences are and help them to achieve them in their playing. Read More

I began assisting teachers during high school for extra credit. It later became my job during Full Sail. I worked extensively with grades K-5 on reading, writing and math skills enrichment.

Next the focus becomes proper grip for mallets/sticks and embouchure placement for winds. Read More

I encourage the individual to find what they love about what they're doing to spark growth and personal development.

I use a linguistic and analytical yet methodological approach to teaching that I find to be VERY Efficient! Read More
