I believe that every student is unique and has specific goals and learning needs. That's why I strive to create customized lessons that are tailored to the individual student's interests and abilities. I want my students to have a well-rounded marimba education that is both fun and engaging. I believe that by creating connections between marimba study and the student's interests, we can take our marimba learning to the next level.

I have been teaching marimba for almost two decades, and I have learned a lot about how to create a successful marimba learning environment. I am excited to begin working with you and help you achieve your marimba goals.

Here are some specific ways that I can help you learn marimba:

I will ask you about your marimba interests and goals.
I will assess your current marimba skills and abilities.
I will create a personalized curriculum that meets your needs.
I will use a variety of teaching methods to keep you engaged and motivated.
I will provide you with feedback on your progress.
I am confident that I can help you reach your marimba goals. I am excited to get started!

In addition to marimba, I can also teach you how to play mbira, another African instrument that is similar to the marimba. Mbira is a beautiful instrument with a rich history, and I would be happy to share my knowledge of it with you.
