Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin Ukulele Recorder Music Keyboard
My teaching experience dates back about 20 years. Since then, I’ve taught many levels and many instruments. I’ve taught students ranging from 18 months to 81 years old. I’ve taught many styles;including jazz, pop, and rock. I’ve had students to make videos and win several competitions. My favorite genre to teach is classical. With classical, you can pull all of the other genres out of it. When you learn classical first, everything else seems to fall into place. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I have been teaching music since I was a teenager. I started with my neighborhood friends, and later at a school of music, where I also hosted showcase concerts for my students. I then went into private teaching in 2009, and have been teaching student of all ages at their homes. I also taught high school choir, which was a life changing experience for me, as it gave me new insight to older children and how musical tastes evolve as they grow older. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Piccolo Keyboard
My methods of teaching are teaching what and how to practice. The basic ingredients in music are scales and chords and space. I am a firm believer of playing with a rhythm section from the beginning. Because of this, I use devices such as playing with tracks, myself, and other people. I provide audio and visual examples using recordings and videos. It is a myth that, with music, you either have it or you don't. Read More
Instruments: Piano Flute
I am a recent graduate from the Blair School of Music at Vanderbilt University with a Bachelor of Music degree in Flute Performance. I had a few elementary-age students at a small nearby music school during my four years there and I really enjoyed it! I want to be able to help students work on basic foundations and techniques as well as defining an individual's method on how to approach a piece. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Organ
As stated, I have taught students of all ages, from pre-K to adults. I first began teaching while I was in college and have taught ever since. While most of my career has been spent teaching privately in fine arts academies and in students' homes, for the past 7 years I have taught high school choir in Keller ISD. I love to see my students succeed and have those "aha!" moments when their individual practice begins to pay off. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums Bass Guitar Banjo Ukulele Mandolin Music Keyboard Electric Guitar Djembe Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I usually see what level the student is on and we go from there. The age and interest of the students will also tell me which way to go in the lesson. Usually with beginner students the Hal Leonard book is a good place to start but I'm willing to start with any beginning book. If the students are just interested in one specific thing then we focus on that. Read More
Instruments: Piano
Having many years of experience in the music school administration, I tailor my lessons to the needs of the individual student. I help students reach their goals by giving them all of the tools that they need to understand the music.I use a combination of lesson books, anddevelop individualized lesson plans for each piano student. I think it is very important to have fun while learning. I like to move to the next level without wasting time. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Organ Music Keyboard
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I was 7 when my Dad put a keyboard before me and I have been hopelessly hooked every since.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Not a teacher, but my Father. I was 7 years old when he placed a keyboard in my hand and it never departed thereafter. When I was 9, I took my babysitting money and paid for my own private lessons and walked 4 blocks each week to get to them. When I was 13, I started working at a nursing home afterschool and on weekends, and paid $1300.00 for my very own Kwai Organ. I loved singing and playing. However, my father always said it was not a good way of making a living or I believe it would have been my first vocation earlier in life. In that sense, the one who inspired me also discouraged me.
When will I start to see results?
Everyone and every class is different. However most students are playing recognizable songs and selections within a few months.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
The truth is, that is a hard thing to determine but there are tell tale signs that you can look for. Those include the child playing with their fingers and not their entire hand. Playing one key at a time instead of banging on the keys. Singing and pretending to play or actually picking up the right note for some songs. Sometimes just clapping in rhythm, singing with good pitch or banging something with good rhythm can be signs. Being able to sit still for small periods of time and good focus help. However, the best way of knowing is letting your child do a trial lesson with an instructor that is experienced in teaching that age group. They will be able to let you know if your child is ready or if 6 months to a year will make all the difference in the world!
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am most proud of seeing my students compete in school and local talent shows and complete national online testing and contests successfully. I even have some that have competed on America's got talent. If I were to say my greatest personal accomplishment is that I taught my own children (now grown) to play and I have 6 of my 8 grandchildren that also play. My grandkids range in age from 5 to 14. I never coerced them to play. Each of them came and asked to be taught one by one. Many of my colleagues cannot teach their own children. My grandchildren often play for our Church services and are paid well when they do.
