    About William S.

    Hi there! I have seen and felt the difference and importance that a good teacher can make in one’s life. I have learned so many things from the fantastic and not so fantastic teachers I have worked with over my career. My goal is to teach you using all I’ve experienced from those great teachers, avoid the things I’ve seen poorer teachers do, and add things I wish some teachers would have done. I want to work with you to make sure that you can reach your goals within music, no matter what they may be, and I hope I get to hear you play soon!
