Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
When working with a new student - together we make an assessment of where you are with your playing and discuss where you want to go. Then we can create a course specifically designed around your personal interests.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I've got a Bachelor's degree in music teaching for over 20 years, along with years of real world playing helps to make your learning process a breeze.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
There is a standard rate but it's based on your location and schedule. Email for rates.
How did you get started teaching?
Teaching has always been natural for me and actually started teaching where I was taking lessons in NY at the age of 17. It truly was an immediate interconnection for me.
What types of students have you worked with?
All ages from 5 - 81 years old with all styles covered.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Very often I have students tell me of bad experiences with previous instructors, pretty much on a regular bassis. There are many great players out there but many of which are not good conveyers of sharing knowledge and expertise. If you try one lesson with me you will instantly see I've got your best interest in mind with clear learning discovery for you.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Simply think about what you want to learn and check with your prospective instructor to make sure they can handle what that is.
