Hi Outschoolers! I'm a multi-instrumentalist based in Toronto, Canada, specializing in songwriting, drums, percussion, piano, vocals, and music theory. I have been a professional musician for over forty years. I'm a recording artist, producer, film composer, songwriter, and have performed all over the world. I studied music at York University (Toronto, Canada) and Eastman School of Music (Rochester, New York). I currently teach music at middle school in the Toronto District School Board. My music teaching philosophy is simple: I like to find out what skills the student has and what they are missing, and work on filling in those gaps. Also I always ask the student what THEY would like to work on and learn. Most importantly, we will have FUN in the lessons!
