Teaching Philosophy

I practice an asset-based approach to teaching, where each student’s previous experiences become the foundation we can refer to and grow from as we learn new skills and vocabulary. I want to assist my students in discovering their own love for music and creativity, which can ultimately sustain them on the road to becoming a skilled musician.
