Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Recorder
I use different methods depending of the students' age and ability. Singers should always learn to breathe correctly and vocalize depending on their range. I could also use the Vaccai method for opera aspiring singers. For basic piano guitar, chords and harmonizing for accompaniment. For the recorder to learn to read music and play what's written. I also can teach in Spanish and English. Read More
Instruments: Piano
My first and foremost goal is to inspire a student to want to learn and thrive in their instrument. If I can do this, my job along with theirs, becomes that much easier. I try and do this by heavily incorporating the music that they identify the most with while strengthening their technique with a classical foundation. And, introduce a well-rounded set of incentives for each of their accomplishments. After all of this, without saying, the passion for the piano should have grown after taking root in our first lessons. 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 Guitar Violin Viola Bass Guitar Harmonica Mandolin Electric Violin Fiddle Double Bass
I use a very concise methodology in my instruction. I evaluate the students level, from there I make a step by step guide (of selected piece and etudes) to show the student their progress into the next level. I also encorperate ideas in theory, history, and ear training. Also if the student has yet to learn how to read musical notation. that will be taught along side with regular instrumental lessons.

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 Trumpet Drums Bass Guitar Music Keyboard Acoustic Guitar
I have performed in music ensembles since childhood. As an elementary school student I performed in regionally recognized handbell, soprano recorder, and choir ensembles and I am a strong advocate of these types of ensembles at the elementary level. As a middle and high school student I participated in jazz, concert, symphonic, and marching band. While attending Morehouse College in Atlanta, Georgia I participated in Orchestra (trumpet), Glee Club, and Jazz Band (piano) and have extensive experience performing in symphonic and concert ensembles ensembles.

Instruments: Piano Voice Cello Bass Guitar Keyboard
I did not officially start teaching music until after I graduated from Hill College. I have been playing the cello since I was 13 and singing since I was practically born. While attending college I was put in charge of my section in the choir in order to make sure that everyone knew their part. I would set up weekly times for all of us to meet and go over our parts.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Anyone at any part in their musical journey is ready to start lessons whether you're a complete beginner or a professional. Any one at any age with a passion for music is ready to begin working with a teacher. It's better to start your children with a teacher then to have them be self taught and eventually start taking lessons, however everyone at every level in their musicianship will benefit from working with a teacher.
When will I start to see results?
Most people aren't able to tell how and when you're progressing but as a teacher I can say that you are always making progress even if the results aren't obvious to yourself. I think depending on where you are in your musical journey the progress you see when you start working with a teacher can be immediate and linear growth, however a lot of people who are self taught and seek a teacher after being self taught might come to find you actually regress a bit due to having to back track to fix bad habits or implement necessary technique you didn't on your own. While this feels like negative results your still making progress towards the penultimate goal of mastery. Having a teacher will not only help make sure you're making consistent progress but we'll also be there to celebrate the progress you don't always recognize when teaching yourself as well as fixing habits and finding solutions that would take years longer on your own.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I had really great connections with all my music teachers in middle and high school, especially with my middle and high school choir teachers which is definitely what inspired me to be a teacher. I saw what they did everyday and thought to myself how fun it would be to be in their shoes teaching music all day. I think the way they inspired me more so in high school was as a teachers assistant I got to see the nuance of teaching and how you get to share a part of yourself with others through music. I was inspired by how much my teachers loved what they did and put so much time and effort into sharing music with us.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
My biggest advice to practicing effectively is to have a consistent practice routine that you take full advantage of. Even when doing the repetitive "easy" stuff like warm ups and exercises, giving it your full focus and effort is the fastest way to make progress in your solo repertoire, leading to your improvement of skill. Practicing everyday for a short period of time will do you more good than practicing for a long period of time less frequently, like 1-2 days a week. 15 minutes a day minimum for children and 30 minutes a day minimum for adults is what I recommend and make every minute of your practice count. I like to think of my practice routine as 20% warm ups and exercises, 20% sight reading and literacy training, and 60% repertoire practice.
