Introduction: I teach music theory with relativity as it pertains to the pieces we work on. My lessons embody the Berklee curriculum teaching both how to define music and also navigate its' parameters freely. I teach jazz, contemporary and classical music styles.
Our lessons should be comfortable and casual. I'm on your side and I want you to accomplish the goals you set for yourself. Practicing should feel good, like you're getting something done, it shouldn't feel monotonous and unnecessary. My goal is to find that "ah ha" moment, where lesson becomes clear to the player.
