How did you get started teaching?
We teach for City Strings Guitar - a program that brings the creative arts to schools.
What types of students have you worked with?
All sorts! From children as young as 6 to adults in their 50s. The common theme among my students is that they are driven to create a life they love.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
The Leaders of the Heart Concerts are transformational song experiences that totally light me up.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Start with listening. Listen to what songs you love. Listen to the ethers around you for rhythms and tones and then imitate what you hear. Listen to your beautiful heart. Study compassion. Take yourself on an adventure. Let it come out "wrong." Feel the fear and step through the threshold anyway.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
What's my why? Can I be honest with myself about what I really want? If so, what do I want out of this experience?
