Why Lessons?
Here’s how I think of it - a decent drum teacher may make a decent drummer. A good drum teacher may make a good musician (not just drummer). However, truly great music teachers make their students more well-rounded people, both in terms of music and life. I strive to be the latter, no matter the student, age, or background. Having a caring, attentive instructor not only prepares students for future musical endeavors, but for life in general.
Sharing my knowledge - whether it be about altered dominants chords or even tips on making musical connections - is one of my passions. Read more about my educational experience in the ‘About’ tab.
