Guitar: For children, I prefer the FJH Young Beginner Guitar method, but for adults I would prefer Hal Leonard if the student is looking to learn both chords and melody using folk music. I could also teach guitar based on gospel and Christian praise music if the student prefers. I have taught students with an interest in rock music, but only to give them the basic foundation skills of chords and notes to build on with another teacher who has more of a rock music speciality.

I try to find out what inspires students most to learn singing. This gives me a clearer picture of what skills they wish to attain and I can gently push them toward their goals. I give positive encouragement and clear constructive feedback, so that my students can develop their ear and abilities to self-correct as time goes by. Many things go un-noticed until a voice specialist can point it out. Read More
