David’s teaching philosophy can be summed up in one word: FUN! “Learning to play music should be fun! I want us to have a fun and relaxed time while learning how to play an instrument. Whether you are just starting out or you have been playing for a while, I can help you get to that next level. Individualized lessons will move at your own pace and we will learn songs that you want to learn. While having fun and learning how to play your instrument, we will also learn how music works and how you can play music with other people. That’s where the real fun begins!”
