Teaching Philosophy

As an applied private music instructor, I feel I have one of the most important roles in the development of a young musician. The most important mission I have as a teacher is to provide my students with as many tools as possible for their own development. This will aid them in the future so they can teach themselves when they no longer receive weekly instruction. It is the responsibility and duty of a private instructor to help their students utilize their talents, to aid them in their development on their instrument, and to become the best musician they can be. This will help to enable them to not only be performers, but leaders within the musical community. Combining tried-and-true pedagogy with a focus on Arts Leadership, I strive to teach my students to perform with conviction and integrity while taking into account their personal goals and aspirations. Through this approach, I can provide them with the specific tools that they need for their chosen path rather than forcing them into a preconceived mold.
