My teaching journey began in 2017, and I have lots of experience working with students with autism, adhd, and Down syndrome. I believe that music should be a free form of art, allowing all expression to flow through. No boundaries or limits. Music can be anything you like it to be. It can be sad, happy, silly, angry, weird, scary, etc. I strive to make all my lessons a great time for learning, reflection and understanding. Students who learn from me learn musical discipline, musicianship, technique, application, improvisation, theory, and how to emote fluently through the instrument, among other things. If at any time my students have trouble with a concept i go through it thoroughly till they have the concept understood/perfected and i always give good warm ups and workouts to get around problems musically. Performing gave me so much more love for improvisation and the energy/life of music.
