Here is my main goal as a music teacher: To teach my students how to hear music and apply it; rather than simply teach shortcuts to playing in a band as soon as possible. I aim to teach techniques that will encourage longevity as a musician, which will allow for the focus to remain on the soul of the music as opposed to simply a formula.
I am not at all against bringing to my set to learn. However, I prefer to teach you on your set as it is YOUR instrument; your playing field. I want you to be able to directly apply the instruction, allowing you to feel more comfortable on your own set....not to mention working on your kit to improve ergonomics and placement to make way for optimal performance.
As stated before, I am a father and as such, I understand what it truly means to meet a person where they are at. Not all people learn in the same style or speed. One of my strengths is that I can find the avenue in which each individual will learn best and go at a pace that challenges without discouraging them.
I would love to meet you. Lets make some music.
