WE'RE GLAD YOU'RE HERE!
Greetings and welcome to music lessons! On this site you will find information about me, my teaching experience, procedures and policies of the studio and related topics. Please take a few moments to carefully read through these important guidelines.
Music is a language--and like any language, there are many basics which must be mastered prior to advancing to more complex applications. During a course of study, I attempt to cover all areas of musicianship: theory, technique, analysis, harmony, ear-training, sight-reading, performance, and a comprehensive study of musical literature in a progressive fashion.
I truly feel that a well-rounded musical education helps students define for themselves what music means to them.
Please bear in mind that no two students are exactly alike, and we learn at different rates of speed. I approach students as individuals and attempt to challenge each according to their own unique potential.
