drums Since sixth grade, I have been learning the skills and coordination that it takes to be a drummer/percussionist. From snare drum to xylophone to the trap set, I have a passion for all instruments in the percussion and drum family. Throughout junior high, I was first chair percussionist and in high school I played in the concert and marching band as well as several percussion and drum ensembles. Throughout high school I have continued to take music classes to further my knowledge and education to better my musicianship. guitar Since recieving my first guitar at age nine, I have not stopped learning the beautiful art of guitar and loving every moment of it. From private lessons to school jazz band to simpy teaching myself what I can, I have always searched for ways to expand my knowledge and skills. In junior high school I was first chair guitarist for all three years in the jazz band. In high school I have taken several music classes to continue honing my skills and musicianship. Now, I am the head band director for the youth at my church. My love for this instrument encompasses the natural sound of the acoustic, the rockin' electric, and the thumpin' bass. I enjoy playing many genres, from rock to country to jazz. I am looking to teach and tutor young beginners who are excited to learn the art of the guitar. piano For young ones who are looking to begin playing piano, I am your match for a tutor. I am a percussion enthusiast, and since the piano is a part of the percussion family, learning the art of it was a task I gave myself a couple years ago. I have taken several keyboard classes in school since grade six and I am currently in an advanced placement piano class at my high school. I believe that to play any instrument well, you must also have knowledge of basic music theory as well, which I have been studying for the past three years. Piano is a great way to dive into the wonderful world of music and I look forward to tutoring young ones and opening their eyes to the fun and exciting things piano has to offer.
