Teaching Philosophy: I believe that anyone can be a musician. Everybody has a spark of passion and creativity in them, and it's part of my job to help them seize that spark and run with it on their instrument. Tools like techniques, practice methods, music theory, and sight reading are invaluable to one's musicianship and make for a well-rounded player. They make it that much easier for the player to use his/her/their spark to create something beautiful for the world to hear.
