Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin Cello Viola Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Clarinet Bass Guitar Synthesizer French Horn
From the very beginning of my work, I believe in positive reinforcement because I find that we all need our hopes and beliefs in our ability to accomplish something to be nurtured before we take on any challenge, objective or goal. This is very important because I also believe that presenting students with challenges and goals allows them to experience adventure, fun, and rewards- particularly in the context of music. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Viola Saxophone
For beginning voice students, I focus on opening and relaxing the throat by way of diaphragm support and healthy, strong breathing. These are the fundamentals of good singing, regardless of the style.We work on these techiniques with both vocal exercises and repertoire.From there, I focus on the student's quality of tone and helping them find their "natural voice." The best singers use their authentic sound, and are not a second-rate imitation of someone else. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I have always been passionate about music and feel no greater joy than sharing this passion with my students and friends. I began playing guitar around 2003 while I was a freshman in high school. Throughout my high school years I have attended summer music camps in Green Bay, WI then at Berklee College of Music in Boston. After graduation I attended McNally Smith College of Music where I majored in Guitar Performance. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I typically start beginners with the Teaching Little Fingers to play books. After going through the books at whatever rate the student needs to retain information, I will move on to solo repertoire pieces that align with the students' interests and tastes. I remember my piano teacher when I was a child bringing over several books for me to choose from, and it was the most exciting thing. I do the same with my students, so that the learning stays fun and students get to reap the rewards of their hard work throughout the process. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Music
Music is for everyone and I want lessons to always be a safe space, and a fun space. There is no one right pace for people to learn, whatever works best for you! We can achieve this by setting S.M.A.R.T goals, as well as potential benchmarks to rate progress by. I like to approach each lesson with empathy, humor, and curiosity. I think there is much we can learn from ourselves and each other, so I like to keep my teaching focused, exciting, but also attentive to each persons needs and what goals we are trying to achieve in a given day.

Instruments: Piano Voice Drums Keyboard
For my intermediate students, I will teach them all 12 major keys and the circle of fourths and fifths and how they interplay with song writing and chord progressions. I will then teach them the chords of the scales and turn the chords into progressions and into songs. For my advanced students who know all of their scales and chords, I will tailor the lesson around what they seek to learn and improve on. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Violin Cello Viola Music Keyboard
écoutez et répétez. Translation: hear and repeat. There is simply no better methodology in grasping and understanding an instructor’s directions so that a student, no matter what the age, can progress confidently and successfully. In addition, theoretical and historical subject matter is also introduced appropriately to keep him or her engaged continuously. Performances throughout the year, which include solos, duos, trios, and quartets will further inspire the student to progress even further. Read More
Instruments: Flute
When will I start to see results?
You may start to see results as early as a few weeks after your child's first private lesson. While great teachers can help students accomplish a lot during their private lesson time, the student's diligent practice work outside of lessons will increase the rate at which they are improving on their instrument of choice. At the beginning of your child's musical journey, each lesson will revolve around learning fundamentals on their instrument (i.e. how to form a proper embouchure, how to hold the flute with the proper hand position, where to place their fingers on the keys, etc.). As they learn these skills, you will begin to hear them playing notes, then scales, then a simple and recognizable melody. After they master the fundamentals, they will be able to play more challenging repertoire and conquer more challenging scale and arpeggio exercises. The potential of what your student is able to do on the flute is limitless with consistent private lessons!
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Having a concrete plan of what you would like to accomplish in each practice session is essential. I advise my students to keep a "to-do" list on or near their music stand during each practice session with a breakdown of the repertoire they want to work on, which sections are giving them difficulty, and then a time limit for how long they intend to practice each session. This helps to keep you on track so that you can practice more efficiently in less time. I also advise my students not to just run through large sections of their repertoire or always play the sections that they do really well, instead focus on practicing the things that challenge them so that they can play these sections with ease.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If your child is passionate about music and interested in learning more about the instrument they are playing, private lessons are a great way to allow them to explore their passion with the guidance of an experienced mentor. Private lessons can be started at any age and any ability, and with the right teacher your child will experience joy in learning more about and improving on the instrument of their choice. Learning a musical instrument can benefit your child in so many different ways, including improving their problem solving skills, their math skills, and allowing them to creatively and freely express themselves through playing music.
