Teaching Style
I enjoy taking students' interests and style of music into consideration when planning instruction. I then back them up to show them how to get to the point of expertise to be able to perform that genre of music. I am also very interested in the history of music and what has led us to where we are today in music. I have a strong ear for music, but I also believe that sight reading and formal training is important. Young students seem to relate well to me because I am only 21.
My Hobbies
I enjoy playing several other instruments which are self-taught such as piano, harmonica, and penny whistle. I enjoy working with technology to create music as well. I also enjoy fishing and hunting as well as video games movies and cooking.
