My Philosophy
Drumming is fun! I love playing the drums and creating music and it's been a huge part of my life since I was a child. I believe in engaging each student's individual creativity and passion immediately.
Music is personal and expressive and every student approaches it from a unique perspective. That's why I think it is essential to tap into this and to build off what already excites them. While many teachers might approach lessons as a way to pass on their own identity and taste, I believe it's not about my taste and inspiration, it's about the student's and their unique way of seeing and playing with the world around them.
Everyone comes to music with his or her own goals both big and small. I believe the roll of the teacher is to make these goals real in a way that opens the student's mind and expands their artistic vision. In keeping with this, I tailor each lesson to fit the student, focusing on giving them the specific tools for accomplishing their ambitions in the most enjoyable and constructive way possible.
