I work with students on an individual basis, helping each student towards unique goals. I offer lessons in tune learning, technique, ear training, music reading, music theory, and variation/improvisation. Lessons vary greatly depending on what the student is looking for. I have maintained a teaching studio for about 5 years now, and have experience teaching students with all levels of experience and age. Learning music to me is not just about the mastery of a given instrument, but about furthering critical thinking skills, problem solving, embracing weaknesses and working to better them, and understanding the value of practice. I try above all to help students discover their own love of music, and their own love of practice.
