Soon after I began teaching, I learned that my students work twice as hard when practicing pieces of music that they love, and have twice as much fun doing it. While that seems fairly obvious, a lot of teachers out there still pressure their students into playing music they don't care for, and by doing that - prevent students from achieving their full potential. That is not how I do it! I always inquire about my student's musical taste and make sure their homework reflect that. I have a huge collection of sheet music and have memorized hundreds of songs, licks and riffs for you to choose from. On top of that, I'll be more than happy to learn some songs from your musical world, and incorporate them into our lessons. I do it every day for my students and I'll be happy to do the same for you.
