Instruments: Piano Trumpet
I began teaching when I was 16 in my local town of Evanston, Illinois.I have continued to teach on and off in between touring and working with others for the last 14 yrs. I currently have a 2 year old son who is very interested in trumpet so I am beginning to show him the ropes and am well aware of the struggles of teaching younger children. I emphasize a regular regiment of practice every day of at least 20 minutes. Read More

Simply, it is important to set clear goals, and understand all aspects of what one aspires to achieve. So, I always make a strong effort to cater to the needs, interests, and goals of my students, whilst building their general knowledge of the musical arts. On the same token, I am not a book teacher. In my experience and opinion, books are merely tools to be used to increase the greater spectrum of ones musical prowess. Read More
Instruments: Trumpet Saxophone Flute Clarinet
With beginning students, I start with the fundamentals of the instrument, including embouchure and finger technique, as well as the ability to breathe properly, which is fundamental to playing any wind instrument. I also introduce beginning students to basic musical concepts, such as reading music, and tailor the musical selection to their tastes or to whatever group they are playing in, most often a school band class. For more advanced students, I observe what areas the student needs the most work in and tailor the lessons specifically to dealing with those areas, as well as catering to their individual musical tastes.

Instruments: Piano Trumpet Accordion French Horn Music Keyboard
I find that metaphors using familiar things and processes, like the laws of nature and physics we see everyday, can help students grasp concepts that require marrying physical movements with mental flexibility. Perhaps we're discussing articulations and you're having trouble understanding stylistically how to approach and execute staccato with legato over it. We could turn to methods like the Breathing Gym to practice a physical manifestation of how that articulation should sound. Read More

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If they have a good grip on English and have no health issues odds are they are ready to learn how to play an instrument. In many European countries, children learn music in Elementary school. If they are quite young, I may not even place goals on them as their bodies grow so much daily that everyday is different. Some days it's impossible to play and other days they play at an impressive level. If their ability is that volatile, they can still learn how to read and sing music. There is plenty that can be taught in lessons other than playing an instrument.
When will I start to see results?
Results vary depending on the student. The more the students chooses to practice, research, asks questions, and pursues better results determines how soon results will take place. I personally practice around two hours a day and I feel like everyday I improve a little more. For someone who is just starting to learn how to play and read music, I would say the average student can start seeing some serious results in about two weeks if they practice 15 minutes daily. For someone who only practices during lessons, it will take much much long.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My first tuba teacher inspired me to pursue tuba in college and professionally. Experiencing how fun it was to play duets with him and playing in marching band was what made me feel connected to my playing. I feel like too many teachers spend too much time on goals, checkpoints, and deadlines instead of trying to convey the best of what music can be to the student. You would be surprised what your body can do to make a lifeless metal tube do. I want to show my students that they have the skills to make music.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Learn many different warm ups and exercises. After you have obtained these sort out the ones that work best for you and practice them from start to finish everyday, regardless of frustration or how long it takes you. It is crucial that you play warm ups and exercises that work for you and not the ones that are simply easy and likable. As musicians, the only way we can improve ourselves is by practicing music that challenges us. You would be surprised what you can play if you commit to practicing it regularly. I guarantee that after one month you will have surpassed your expectations.
