Philosophy
As your teacher, I am here to support you in reaching your musical goals. My students explore technique, various genres, and learn to build confidence in themselves through bass playing. My students lift each other up and are a part of a positive and encouraging community. I embrace neurodivergence and various physical abilities, and prioritize joy in every lesson, no matter your age or level. Lastly, I encourage curiosity and thinking critically – no question is too big to be explored!

Testimonials
Here’s what students and families have to say:
“We truly believe that Frankie was instrumental in our son continuing to play the bass through the pandemic and beyond. Four years later, he is still playing bass for his high school orchestra and we owe a lot to Frankie. Frankie was always organized, well prepared and taught our son online as well as in person. They always arrived on time and made the most of the lesson. Frankie is also an incredible bass player and we enjoyed listening to them perform at an online recital they arranged. We highly recommend Frankie as a bass teacher.”
— Shona, parent
“Frankie really helped me grow as a bass player, and supported me throughout the pandemic. Thanks to their flexibility and teaching skills, I really felt like I improved as both a bassist and person.”
— Jonathan, student
