"My students are both one-on-one and group classes. I find learning music theory fun, but won't force it on you (well, just a bit). I believe learning the fundamentals and ideas behind WHY songs work will help you teach yourself and build a foundation to build on. Learning from several angles early on is essential - songs, patterns, a little theory, creative accidents -it all adds up to you becoming a musician. If you have gaps in your knowledge, we can fill them. I have a large library of educational resources and cross-reference from several books and study materials. We will aim toward any style(s) you are most interested in. "
