Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Music Keyboard
I am a sixth semester student at Berklee College of Music, dual majoring in saxophone performance and jazz composition, and have studied with many inspiring professors as well as learned from many amazing educators. Since entering Berklee I have been able to not only study the material and concepts, but I have also gotten to study professors and how they educate students of all different backgrounds, all different levels of understanding, and how they navigate teaching a class with students who are all at different stages and levels of grasping material.

Instruments: Piano
As a piano educator, I believe that the foundation of success as a pianist is a thorough understanding of musical theory, and my method involves teaching piano from the ground up by teaching a little theory and applying it, then a little more theory and applying it, and so on, and so forth, until the student is fluent in the language that is music. At the intermediate and advanced levels, I focus more on technique and expressivity. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
After completing my BA in public relations I was awarded a teaching assistantship at the University of Arkansas to teach the basic speech requirement. I became pregnant and did not complete my MA but began teaching private piano lessons part time while raising my children. As the needs of my family changed I began working with children in other ways such as coaching ball teams. For 10 years I served on my citys Parks Board and have worked as a local coordinator for foreign exchange students. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
I think music making is the most appealing part of learning to play a new instrument. This is why I try to make every new concept Iteach as appealing and as fun as possible. For example, if in day one I am teaching two notes, I like to have as much fun with those two notes by making a song or a game out of them. In this way my students are able to engage in music and have fun while they are learning. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Accordion Keyboard
Music lessons will certainly broaden the students knowledge of music. It has been proven through scientific study that the study of music will improve the individuals cognitive ability and aids in brain development. Children who study music develop higher math and problem solving skills. Age is not a factor as we are never to old to learn. My students range in age from 5 years old to well into their 70’s, many of whom simply want to improve their skills or recapture the joy of making music. The study and enjoyment of music can and often becomes a life long adventure whether its just for fun or as a career. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet
In high school I had the great privilege of being selected as the Principal clarinetist in the Minnesota All-State Band. We performed at the summer camp designed for these groups and recreated our performance at Orchestra Hall, home of the Minnesota Orchestra, the following spring. Clarinet is my primary instrument and first love. I also teach saxophone and beginning flute and hope to add other woodwinds in the future. Piano has always been an important influence in my musical performances and I believe it is a gateway to interest in other instruments, so I truly enjoy teaching it! Read More
Instruments: Guitar Synthesizer Ukulele Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
For beginning students I use the Mel Bay Guitar Method. Mel Bay books have provided reliable teaching methods for many decades. They are clearly written and easy to follow. I find these books helpful in building a strong foundation for growing a young student's technical proficiency. They are written in standard notation which improves sight-reading and helps train the student's ear. I will supplement the Mel Bay Method with popular songs the student is interested in. The goal is to get the student performing the songs he/she wants to play while building fundementals adaptable to all styles of music.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing to master on the instrument is musicality and instinct. They are difficult things to teach. You can play the right notes but why does Hendrix sound like he does playing the very same notes on the same instrument? Listening properly is not an easy thing for a student to understand. It's more than playing the right notes within the correct tempo. It's all the space in-between the notes. It's all the time in-between the beats. Touch, feel and grace are very difficult things to accomplish on an instrument. Mastering the instrument requires focus, dedication and time.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I have had students go on to major in music in college - including at the Berklee School of Music in Boston. I've had a student graduate with a Masters degree from Webster University. Many of my students have formed bands and performed live while also writing and recording their own songs. One of my students signed a major record contract with his band and toured the country. Others have accomplished smaller goals which brought them just as much joy. Becoming accomplished guitarists who can comfortably perform their favorite songs.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am most proud of writing my own songs and producing my own records. They represent my stories. My take on life. Having the opportunity to travel and perform these songs live is something I'm so grateful for. Seeing people at a concert reacting to something I've recorded or seeing people react online to something I've written is touching. Traveling the world to play music is something I'm very proud of. I'm also proud to live and work in Nashville. It's an honor to be a part of this music community - to be a part of recording sessions with the greatest musicians and producers on the planet.
