I specialize in classical guitar and flamenco guitar (as was my main focus in college). My methods of technique is a contemporary adaptation of Andres Segovia. I play a lot of jazz guitar, which I like to put into a lot of my lessons because it is a fun way to teach music theory instead of playing Mary Had a Little Lamb. It also is a great way to introduce and demonstrate how to play scales and improvise.

Ages Taught

Specialties
I like working hard with my students to find out which ways they learn the best. Each student requires a different method and style of teaching. I really like working on rudiments, different drumming books, and writing out grooves that students can learn. I'm best known as a metal/rock drummer because of the band Project 86 that I play with but I also enjoy teaching Latin and Jazz.

I hope for the best and so encourage his musical experimentation (until the headache creeps up and begs for a quiet, introspective child prone to reading and drawing and other silent activities) with a variety of kid-sized instruments like Melissa and Doug’s piano complete with color-coded keys and songbook. Plan Toys also nurtures novice musicians with a starter baby drum or a more advanced drum set made from natural rubber wood and non-toxic paints.... |
