Teaching Philosophy: "Everyone has the ability to learn how to play music! I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach; every student has a unique set of goals, musical interests, and learning styles. A knowledge of music theory can add a whole new level of connection and understanding when learning a piece of music. I believe that real progress takes time and that it’s important to break down a difficult challenge into manageable chunks. Learning music is incredibly rewarding, and the skills learned translate into many other parts of life!"

My son has really enjoyed his piano lessons with Bryce. Bryce does a great job engaging with his students and encouraging them to push out of their comfort zone. He has also made it fun and motivating by introducing different genres of music from Start Wars, to Holiday Music, to Bach. It has also been good for my son to have a male teacher; he really looks up to him and wants to do better!

Bryce has been amazing and I have learned so much about the piano but also so much about theory and music in general. I had a successful first semester in the music therapy program at my university and attribute a lot of that to his help! He even helped me work through some assignments when I was struggling.
