I want all of my students smiling and laughing and feeling the joy in discovering how to play music that brings them passion. I break it down into steps for my students.

Vocal students are encouraged to pick songs from whatever genre sparks their interest.  With violin and viola I use the suzuki method of training and follow the books and lessons, and I use other books to supplement scales/technique.  If a student already has musical literature I am very open to using that to build a specific curriculum for that student.
