About Me
I am an opening minded individual who is not afraid of being wrong. I have just moved to Germany from Ireland where I have been teaching music for the last four years.
My teaching is focused on giving my students the tools they need to teach themselves, guiding students to their own conclusions rather than forcing my own on them. My teaching philosophy is largely based on ideas from the 'Art of Learning' by Joshua Waitzkin, the Suzuki method, and my own observations of the learning process.
I am happy to teach whichever genre the student and parent collectively decide. I can teach classical, jazz and popular genres. I include theory in all my lessons, how much I focus on this depends on the student.
I make a big effort to always be friendly, patient and welcoming in all my lessons.
