Introduction
Welcome to My Page! I have been teaching instrumental music for 16 years. I started on drums when I was 8, picked up piano at 10, then guitar at 13. I have performed extensively and professionally and have a wealth of experience in and around the music industry.
My Teaching Background
I am a Musician of 26 years. I spent 10 years preceding my first job as a Music Teacher playing professionally in and around the Tri-State area. I have been teaching privately for 16 years. I also possess a degree in Jazz Studies. I teach Rock, Blues, Jazz, Country, and many other styles.
I also played shows opening mainly for rock - alternative bands including: Gregg Ginn, Firehose, The Verve, Beck, Juliana Hatfield Trio, and The Smashing Pumpkins. After playing professionally for many years, I found my real passion was simply teaching and de-mystifying music for those who want to know how things "fit together".
I generally teach adults and children starting at 6 and up (you're never too old). Sometimes an age exception can be granted depending on the child's temperament.
Over the years I have developed a structured curriculum I feel that ensures an easy, powerful, and steady way into understanding the musical system and its componentry. This new understanding not only helps the student want to practice more, but empowers them to explore the musical landscape with confidence and really take off!
Instruction Levels Taught: Beginner to Advanced
Teaching Philosophy
Since statistically 80% of people learn more effectively through visual representation I make good use of colored diagrams and other visual props to ensure thorough comprehension. I try and stay away from "cookie cutter" approaches as they don't take into consideration dispositions in learning that students may have. I will tailor each students lesson time/curriculum to their own goals and in addition, I have developed a very effective curriculum over years of teaching and all needed materials (ie. books/cd's) are included in the cost of the lessons.
