About Me:ShowLearning takes time. Unlike math or history, one cannot cram pages of music the night before and expect to have a great performance. Practice does not make perfect. It is perfect practice that makes perfect. I encourage my students to practice, not because they have to, but because they want to. My teaching method involves developing an ear before anything else. It is important to listen to everything and appreciate its character. The more one listens, the more one learns the value of music.
