About
I am a retired music teacher. I taught choir, high school music theory, and piano at Parkway South High School. I'm still teaching because I love children and I love to share my joy of music. I am certified by the State of Missouri and have a Master's degree in music education. I live in Ellisville, MO with my wife.
Each student learns at their own pace. I'm diligent in determining how a student learns best and I capitalize on the insight to teach the student. I am patient and I make every attempt to make learning a pleasant experience for each student. I continue to work part-time during retirement because I enjoy teaching students about music.
