TEACHING PHILOSOPHY

"I am living proof that a late bloomer can become successful so I treat every student like they have potential. I provide a caring environment and meet each student’s abilities where they are right now. I also believe, at the very least, music should be fun so we WILL be having a good time while making ourselves better musicians and humans."
