Classical techniques always serve as a great foundation. Improvisation, Gospel, Jazz, and etc can be taught once this is established. Not only to I encourage students to learn and play music that they enjoy, music theory is mandatory. This helps students not only to perform music, but to comprehend it

My passion for education blossomed while volunteering as a tutor with Somali refugee children in Pittsburgh, PA during college.

I am a musician and teacher at heart and within the past two years I have found a way to combine those two passions into the most rewarding job I've ever had. I've been teaching music lessons, usually with guitar, for well over a year now and I love every second of it. I'm in pursuit of getting a music degree right now and by teaching and taking classes, I'm learning more than I could have ever hoped for.

My teaching style is a very flexible style. I understand that everyone has a different method for learning and I have to adapt in order for the student to learn. Since I've mostly dealt with music for teaching experience, I'll refer to that area of expertise to illustrate my methods. I usua ... read more
