It brings me joy to see one of my students become passionate about music. It is something that can be taught under the right circumstances. With that knowledge, I recognize the importance of guiding progress to his or her own pace. I always set goals and aim to teach something new every lesson. Setting short term goals shows real accomplishments that help fuel students motivation to stay dedicated. As I said before, I am a student as well and I learn a lot by teaching. Read More

I love seeing students realize their own progress. I always like to start with recording a first attempt and then recording it again once it has been mastered so they can see their progress.

For beginning students both children and adults, I typically start with Bruce Pearson's Standard of Excellence books. Once my younger students have progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals, I begin to introduce solo repertoire that is appropriate for their first recital performance.

I have lead others and taught them before ever having my own classroom as a leader in High School and College. It has greatly pleased me that my students have had many accomplishments in many groups. These vary from various Honors Bands, the Atlanta Youth Symphony Orchestra, and many High Valued Scholarships.
