My style is a blend of many things - Orff, Kodaly, Dalcroze, my own personal ideas, and technology. Together it creates a bit of a musical education stew that has students singing, playing instruments, dancing, using interactive whiteboards and iPads, and many other things to help instill a sense of the importance of music to their daily lives.
