I love teaching students privately one on one. My youngest student was 4; a Piano student. She was from a Russian family and didn’t speak a word of English. Teaching her was a joint effort between myself and the girl’s mother who did speak English; a very interesting experience. My oldest student was 86; a Guitar student. He had studied previously with another instructor and loved to play. I focused on material that would not only improve his abilities but provide him with something that he could play for people in his social groups. Read More

As with all students, I like tooassess the level of experience before setting a particular method.  Once I teach proper warm up habits, I start by working on scales and range development.  Once a basic knowledge of scales and warm up habits are established, I search the student to see what her/his interests are in music styles.   Once that is accomplished...we can move on the bigger and better things.

THE STUDENT HAS TO PUT TIME IN ON THE INSTRUMENT, OR THEY ARE NOT GOING TO TAKE AWAY ANYTHING. Read More
