A Little Bit About Me...

I like to establish a solid foundation in sight reading, music theory, and ear training and understand that patience, persistence, and hard work are the key ingredients to learning and instructing properly.
I have studied guitar for nearly eleven years and have had formal training in Classical Guitar for the past three years. My experience in instructing formally is limited however I understand the importance of music theory, technique, and proper development of muscles as well as ear training. I have performed at the Florida State Music Symposium at FAU in January of 2012 as well as for grand openings, parties, and weddings.

I have learned that I enjoy teaching when it is in a more personal setting whether one on one or small class. That is why I enjoyed post secondary classes the most. For me one of the most important aspects of teaching is the ability to build relation ... read more

My teaching style is very simple, but is one that took a long time to learn. In college you are taught everything but HOW to teach. I learned the HOW by watching my teachers and having some very good mentors. I began to ask myself, " why do I learn more from this instructor than that instructor?" No matter what the subject is, you have to learn 2 things to reach the student. One, how does this student learn. Two, you can't force the information. I feel that a student learns more and shows more excitement when they are allowed to find answers on their own. This also takes building a relationship with the student.
I have taught K-Post Secondary through out my teaching career. I have done a great deal of graphic design work with military contractors. However I am most happy teaching. I am trying to get back into that arena because I realize that I was meant to teach, and to he ... read more
