Now based in the northern San
Joaquin Valley of California, I have
been teaching fiddle and other
instruments since the early 1970's.    
M
y method is through teaching tunes
rather than exercises, and having y
ou  
learn to enjoy playing at whatever level
of skill y
ou have.   I have developed  
a
n accurate ability to judge the
capabilities of a student, and I
will
never try to teach you something that
is too challenging for your own
success.

 Playing by ear is of foremost
importance, so musical theory is
worked into lessons as a natural thing.
 I also teach not only HOW to develop
certain techniques, but WHY the
technique is important!
My aim in teaching is to help you
develop an individual style, and to
eventually reach the goal of not
needing lessons anymore.
