Kevin's Approach to Music Lessons:

My approach to teaching is very simple. I enjoy teaching students who are interested in learning. Having fun is also very important but in order to have fun the student must have the main fundamentals in place meaning producing good sound, understanding what notes and rhythms they are playing, knowing who musically influences them, and what goals they want to accomplish.
