Teaching Method
I approach each saxophone student individually, working with strengths and addressing weaknesses in a relaxed, no-pressure environment. Individual musical interests (such as jazz, pop, classical, or rock genres) are incorporated into each lesson, helping to streamline and facilitate the learning process.

Beginning students learn to make music from the first lesson starting with simple songs, finger technique, and basic tone production.
Lessons focus on:
• Tone production • Finger technique •
• Music notation • Rhythm •
• Sight reading • Playing by ear •
• Phrasing and interpretation • Improvisation •
At each lesson we work with short term goals, leading to long term improvement. As confidence and technical ability develop students cans explore more challenging songs, compositions, and improvisation.
