Instruments: Piano
I have been teaching for over 30 years, and I love working with children. Regular practice is important so that students can see progress and reap the rewards that come with it. I meet the students where they are at, trying to work with their particular style of learning. My lessons are based in classical music, but we learn many different styles of music as they progress. The teaching association I belong to has four festivals a year, which I encourage my students to participate in, where they perform pieces and receive constructive feedback, helping them to grow as musicians and to become comfortable playing for others.

Instruments: Piano Keyboard
I relocated to New York City in 1992 to major in music at Hunter College. Living in NYC I began performing live and became a studio session musician in the process I developed songwriting and arranging skills as well as my own composing style. As I advanced musically I began teaching piano, guitar and music theory at the Academy of Music. Teaching the basics of piano really helped me develop a love for exploring and learning music with students . Read More

My teaching experience began at a young age. I started volunteering lessons for the youth in my church. I played keyboard on the worship team for several years and some youth students showed interest so I would teach them every now and then. In 2017, I started teaching private lessons at a studio in Fort Worth. I really started to enjoy it, and as I kept on teaching for years to come (going on 6 years now), I've just fallen in love with it! Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
I spend a lot of class time teaching students how to practice correctly so that when they are practicing alone they will know what to do to make their time productive. I love seeing the pride and self confidence that a student develops from mastering a particularly difficult exercise. I love being able to encourage them and see them through the tough times and be able to celebrate those victories with them. Read More

Lastly, support and accountability are also integral parts of my teaching style. Even in individual lessons, I foster a supportive environment, offering resources like mp3 practice tracks, youtube videos, and other homework to keep students engaged and track their progress. I also provide regular feedback and encouragement to ensure continuous improvement. Lastly, I do weekly and multiple times a week check-in's with my students to encouragement and ensure they feel supported to continue making progress. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I taught high school choral music for over 20 years in Southern California. I have been teaching private piano for the last 15 years, the past 4 years in my piano studio and prior to that, 10 years with the Frisco School of Music in Frisco TX. I am a member of Music Teachers National Associaton, Texas Music Teachers Assocation, and locally, the Denton Music Teachers Association. I have played much jazz in my experience as a pianist, therefore am able to offer instruction in jazz and improvisation. Read More

Most schools use the Hal Leonard Essential Elements and I tend to focus on this method as supplemental instruction but other methods are fine as well especially if the student is already working through a particular method book. For young students I encourage a mix of formal music instruction with music the student enjoys. Nothing unlocks a love of learning like discovering how your favorite music works! Adult students are welcome to tailor their lessons to their musical goals whether that's learning Bach or Breaking Benjamin! Read More
Instruments: Trumpet Saxophone Flute Clarinet
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I decided to become a professional Musician once I was accepted to the Chicago symphony youth orchestral in the 4th grade. I was hired by the University of Chicago to teach private lesson to high school students when I was a sophomore In highs school. This has been a awesome journey and I am ready to plant plenty more seed into the new students that will allow me to embark upon their journey as a musician.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Yes music runs in my family. My grandmother had 12 children and all of them sang in the choir and played different instruments . They was called the Crosby Harmonizers and they performed throughout Chicago IL. I come from a family of 6 and my mother played the clarinet, my brothers sang in the choir, and two of them played the trumpet. One of my brothers was accepted to the same college I went to on a full scholarship playing his trumpet. My sister and I did clarinet and flute duets in the church. I Have a 7 year old daughter that plays the clarinet and she is in the north Memphis mass marching band.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I currently have a Bachelors of Science in Music Performance. Being introduced to music at a very young age lead me into wanting to continue my passion with music. My gift made room for me to teach students something that is very special to this world. Music is something special and it relax our mind and prepare for peaceful environment.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I love to play gospel, classical, R&B, Hiphop, Jazz, Marching band music and the list goes on.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
Once you learn how to play the clarinet, its very easy to learn the saxophone and flute because they are very similar in many ways .
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A normal practice section usually runs between 45min to a 1hr. We will have warm up time and then we will proceed in to our normal lesson. I will allow students to help me to better assist them on what they will like to learn and accomplish through out their lesson. If the students have any music from school that they need to tackle and work on we will work on that as well as the material I have prepared for the lesson. Sight reading rhythms and cross curriculum assignment will also be apart of our weekly lessons.
