As a low strings instructor, it is my responsibility to provide the necessary knowledge in addition to challenging the student. My three objectives are to 1) obtain proper techniques and fundamentals on the instrument, 2) comprehend and apply concepts of music theory, 3) appreciate the history and various styles of the instrument.
I invite my students to utilize their life experiences when learning how to play the instrument. In order to complete the objectives for each student, my approach is to create an interactive environment for learning music. As an instructor, my philosophy is to be sensitive to individual differences and to ensure that students understand their expectations, goals, and the steps they need to take to meet those objectives.
