Bass Teacher
Influences: The list is too long. But for the record I teach both electric and upright bass.
About Me:
I am about reaching the goals of where the student wants to be and beyond. If someone wants to be a professional, I will provide the necessary tools to get there. If someone wants to just have fun and play around with their friends, i will provide the basics so that the student can feel comfortable in most situations. I basically teach theory, technique, and good interpretational skills. These three things will get any musician where they want to be.
Ages:
Elementary School, Pre-teen, Teenage, Adult
