Why Teaching?
During any given lesson, students are listening and challenging themselves constantly. In this process of learning, not only are they becoming better musicians, but also becoming better people. The main reason why I teach is not only to share my craft but to teach lessons that my students can use in their own lives and hopefully help them build something they can be proud of.
