An initial trial session is scheduled for all new students for both the student and the instructor to determine if it is a “good fit.”  

Music is invaluable to human culture. It is a part of people's daily lives globally. It allows people to connect with each other and with themselves to discover a deeper meanings of human emotion and interaction. A musical mind forms necessary life skills such as self-discipline, self-expression, responsibility, patience, and teamwork. As an educator, my role is to provide a safe and welcoming environment for students to learn and grow. It is important for learning to take place in such an environment so that students are not only free to be themselves, but free to make mistakes. Understanding that making mistakes is how we learn is paramount. 

​

Ultimately, my goal is to facilitate learning and discourse to assist students to be productive members of society. Through music, students will engage in activities that require them to be creative, disciplined, flexible, and work cooperatively; skills applicable to any pursuit in life. I strive to help them explore the emotions that various types of music bring them, and help them learn to articulate what they feel and why.  Through music we become educated about other cultures, learning there is more that connects us than divides us.
