Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Bass Guitar Ukulele Keyboard Acoustic Guitar
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 Recorder
I began teaching while I was still a student at the Conservatory of Music in the 1990's I was Voice Teacher at the Intermezzo Music School in Guaynabo, PR. I taught all ages from 7 - 69. I stayed there for 7 years. I also gave private singing lessons to students at my own home in Carolina, PR. And then, I proceded to give voice lessons at different churches like the Methodist Church (where I also founded and directed the choir), Evangelical Church (where I gave voice lessons at the Biblical Institute to prospect Worship Leaders).

I am very passionate about music and believe everyone can learn some music. I enjoy many different types and styles of music, I earned my associate of arts from eastfield college before finding double majoring at Cedar Valley College. I have played in several ensembles and a few different rock bands in my time. I am pursuing my Bachelor's degree from University of Texas at Arlington. I have studied many different instruments like Piano, Guitar, Violaand Vibraphone. 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
I am a lover of music that has always enjoyed sharing it with others. I have been involved in musical activities all through since grade school. I graduated with a Master of Music Arts with a specialty in teaching from Texas Woman's University so I could better share my love of music. I have also been in one choir or another over the years. I sang with the Denton Community Chorus, Nairobi Concert Choir and had the privilege of performing at Carnegie Hall in New York City with the Texas Woman's University Concert Choir. Read More

I have been teaching music lessons as a music therapist since 2007 and have much experience with adapted lessons for students with developmental disabilities and other limitations. I started teaching typical lessons in addition to adapted lessons in 2013 and it has been an added joy for me. I love teaching basic music lessons and music theory to children developing strong musical roots. I encourage a regular practice schedule for all of my students to help develop strong habits and engraving music in each of their lives. Read More
Instruments: Flute
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A normal practice session for me typically consists of a one-hour warm-up, where I begin with long tones and vibrato/tone exercises and then proceed to scale and arpeggio exercises of varying difficulty. I like to switch up the exercises that I do in my warm-ups each day so that I am constantly challenging myself and I never get too comfortable with any one exercise. I then move onto etude practice, and I am pushing myself to learn 3 etudes per week so I learn 3-4 lines of each per day. After I am completely warmed up, I will move onto solo repertoire, where I only focus on the sections that are giving me difficulty. I will practice these sections in a variety of different ways until I have fixed the problems, and then I typically end my practice sessions by either running through a large section of a piece or playing something I really enjoy.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I use the Rubank Method books to teach fundamentals, partially because it was the book that my first private teacher used with me and I found that it worked very well, but also because they start from the very beginning and have great exercises for absolute beginners as well as intermediate and advanced students. There are three volumes of this book, and I find that it is rewarding for students to move onto the next book as an incentive of their growth and hard work. I also use the Forty Little Pieces book for beginners to introduce repertoire, and for more intermediate and advanced students I use the 24 Short Concert Pieces for Flute and Piano collection in addition to integrating standard repertoire.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
In the beginning, the hardest aspect of flute playing to master is learning how to develop a proper embouchure and how to manage your breathing and air speed to create sound. It can be very difficult and even frustrating for many people to try and produce a sound the first time they pick up a flute, but the more that they experiment with embouchure placement and work on developing their lung capacity and strength, the easier it becomes to produce a beautiful tone. I always tell my beginning students that the flute is one of the hardest instruments to learn (it takes almost as much air to play as a tuba - believe it or not!), but once you learn it you will have learned it for life.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
All of my former students have received the highest ratings on their solo performances in both the District and State levels of the Michigan State Band and Orchestra Association Solo and Ensemble competitions. They have also been accepted into the Michigan All-State Honors Band, have all held a principal position in their school bands, and have excelled in every aspect of their flute playing. Although none of my former students decided to pursue a career in music, they are all still playing the flute and it remains to be a very important part of their lives.
