Learning That Fits You

Lessons are based on each student’s individual learning style, musical interests and needs. Every student’s program is tailored to them. I teach mostly using sheet music, with songs often selected by the students. This keeps students engaged and involved in their own learning. All theory is taught directly through the student’s music and using a variety of games.
