Why and how I teach
To teach is to learn and my passion to teach is fueled by my love for music.
Classes are a shared process of exploration and I want students to feel comfortable asking questions, making attempts, mistakes, and developing a unique musical voice.
How lessons Work
Each student brings different experience, interest, and goals to a lesson. I tailor lessons to the individual, while also helping students learn not just what to practice, but how to practice.
Technique:
Warm up exercises designed to develop technical skill.
Music study:
Ear training, reading music, general music theory, and repertoire.
Making music:
Working on a complete song or tune that the student brings in or something we discover together.
