Sam believes learning an instrument should go beyond memorizing songs or simply copying what someone else plays.
A core part of her teaching approach is helping students learn how to actually read music so they understand what they are playing and why it works.
Students build practical music literacy by learning to recognize notes, rhythm, timing, musical symbols, phrasing, and the structure of a piece. This gives them a stronger foundation and helps them become more confident, independent musicians.
Instead of relying entirely on memorization, students develop skills that help them approach unfamiliar music, work through it thoughtfully, and continue progressing on their own.
