Instruments: Piano Voice Organ
I approach each student knowing that every student is unique and so is their learning style. While the information that is delivered to each student remains the same, the manner in which I teach each student varies widely. I try to foster the best student-teacher relationship possible in order to gain the confidence and trust of both the student and their families. I also have much experience teaching students with unique characteristics such as ADD/ADHD, dyslexia, Asperger's, etc. Read More
Instruments: Piano Music Keyboard
I teach from 4 years old to adults, novice to advanced levels. My lessons are totally personalized to meet each student's desire, needs and capability. The pace of the lessons should be adjusted for each student. I review and access each student's understanding and progress in each lesson, and design a personalized assignment and lesson plan for the next lesson. Acknowledging accomplishment makes the student confidence and fuel the student's desire to progress. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I encourage my students to develop a deep connection to their voices, nurturing a sense of ownership and authenticity in their singing. In conclusion, teaching voice is not just about imparting knowledge; it is about empowering individuals to discover and cultivate their true musical potential. With a solid foundation in vocal technique, a nurturing teaching environment, and a passion for guiding students on their musical journey, I am dedicated to helping aspiring singers achieve their goals and thrive in their artistic endeavors.

Instruments: Piano Acoustic Guitar
I believe in a hands on approach. Although I do use books to help reinforce and practice music concepts, I find that children learn through doing, so I use a hand over hand approach. I believe that one does not learn unless one wants to learn and therefore see myself less as a teacher and moreso a creator of an environment in which the student is able to teach themselves.

Instruments: Piano Violin Viola
I began teaching private students in high school, and have been consistently teaching students in my studio for the past five years. Many of my students have gone on to be very successful in youth orchestras, school programs, and music conservatories. During my senior year at university, I had the opportunity to serve as a faculty member for my university's pre-college music program. In this role, I represented the university by providing musical instruction to young upper string students. Read More

Instruments: Piano
I have always had a deep appreciation for music. This led me to learn to play piano, beginning at age 5. By age 7, I was writing pieces of my own. In highschool, I found that I enjoyed teaching piano to others. After college, I opened my own business, which I ran from the end of my first deployment, until the beginning of my second deployment (I am a National Guardsman), called CMPPC. 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.
