I have 10 years teaching experience from beginners to advanced students. Learning piano is much more than just playing with fingers. It requires great ability from both ears and brain. First, you have to know what is right sound that you would like to play. Then, you have to think how to create that specific sound from your fingers. Last step, you need to listen very carefully to see if the sound does match the right sound in your head or not.In order to master the piano playing, I would help my students to build the artistic instinct, hearing and virtuosity. With my lesson, you would learn much more than just finger technique. I would teach

I feel I'm good at working with an individual's strengths and weaknesses to bring out their personal best. I strive for optimal technical training, balanced with the recognition that violin playing should also be rewarding & fun musically.
I've taught in the KC area since 1978. My undergrad degree is MusEd. I have a MMus (and DMA, all but dissertation) in violin performance.
I hold a Bachelor's degree in music and have been a working musician for more than 25 years. While considering each student as an individual I strive to find the best course of instruction, be it reading or ear focused learning, though proficiency at both of these areas is important. I have improved my musicianship through both methods but have experienced the greatest joy of musical discovery through ear training. I feel this can be a springboard to a better understanding of music fundamentals for those who may not desire an initial reading approach. I can provide a comfortable learning atmosphere in my home, on an upright style electric pia

I believe in a balanced approach, theory and exercises are great, but so is ear training. From Smoke on the Water to chord-melody arrangements of jazz standards, I will help you achieve your musical goals.
I studied with John Elliot (whose students included Pat Metheny, Steve Cardenas, Danny Embry and Jay Eudaly), which gives me a strong music theory foundation. I also have a broad 'by ear' background in classic rock and heavy metal. Tablature is well and good, but learning to read music is not really harder and expands your horizons.
