Instruments: Guitar Cello Bass Guitar Double Bass
I started my teaching carreer in 1994, teaching doublebass and bass guitar. Two years later I began offering guitar lessons. In 1998 I offered cello lessons. My passion for teaching has grown over the years, and brought me great pleasure helping beginner students gain skills, confidence, and a sense of pride and accomplishment in learning to successfully play a musical instrument. I been able to teac advanced bass students techniques that increased their playing skills and understanding of their instrument and music in general. My greatest pleasure was helping a young, nervous, shy, and self conscious young boy, and over time, with his efforts and my guidance, was able to apply and get accepted into music college. Read More

I love seeing students develop a deep and lasting passion for the guitar! I want every student to feel at ease and comfortable while learning and help them set goals that push them to achieve whatever they set out to, while eager to learn more. My hope is to provide lessons in a clear and easy-to-follow to manner, so they can not only make progress in the lesson itself, but carry forward what they learn into their day-to-day practicing outside of the lessons and utilize the techniques effectively toward their progress on the guitar.

Under my instruction, creativity is nurtured along side of every technique and skill that I teach. This will help the student develop the ability to create their own original music and deepen their interest in their instrument. I also try my best to make learning and practicing as fun and musical as possible. Of course, we must first learn how to make the instrument sound and how to maintain the instrument. Read More

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

For me, the most amazing aspect of teaching music is to assist students in developing a musical identity of their own. Nothing could be a greater blessing than to experience students cultivating a personal and profound relationship with the magic of music firsthand, and to be there to help them to further their passion is a gift beyond what I am capable of expressing in words. By sharing the musical knowledge I have gathered throughout my life in lessons that are dynamic and adaptable yet consistent in terms of supporting students' growth, it is my intention to help to nourish students' own love for music, just as others have inspired me to do the same.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If your child has not developed the necessary strength to hold an instrument, practicing will be of little avail as they need time to mature. However, regardless of when they can start, I would highly recommend that you have them get started with exposing them to all different types of music. This is especially true if your child is anywhere from third trimester to 2-3 years of age where they can either harness or "prune" off the natural born ability to hear music with what's been called absolute pitch or perfect pitch recognition. Plus, listening to music will inspire them to learn more about the subject giving them a great advantage that I never experienced in my early years. Help them out; it's really darn important to get them involved ASAP!
When will I start to see results?
If all goes well, the first day you should have seen and felt elevations by way of building passion and desire to learn and gain more from your future experiences. However, just as many people fail in many other endeavors in life, it is possible that if no efforts are made, that you will not see results, EVER! That's right, why not address the elephant in the room, which is to say, you will learn in due time that the student is the best teacher.
As my favorite teacher and professor passed on to me his phrases, I will forward them to you:
Embrace the Process,
Trust the Process,
Enjoy the Process!
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Being efficient is a product of acquiring and honing various tools. Over time they will allow you to master any type of music with ease and great enjoyment. There's a long list of tools that I, or any competent educator for that matter, can offer you. It's important to use one tool at a time for maximum benefit.
Three of the most effective tools I have come across for simple mastery thus far: is singing all of the melody, singing the harmonic layers separately - but treated like a melodic line, and singing the bass. It is important to note that while singing, we must have a clear musical intent in mind so as to transfer this musicality to our instruments. The final tool, for now, is practicing v e r y s l o w l y. It should seem meditative. While being fully aware of mind and body, we can pinpoint the errors of our understanding greatly with this tool.
Overall, if you give time and effort, in an accurate and consistent manner, and rotate the use of these tools, over long periods time but broken up in small manageable goals, one can achieve a staggering amount of progress in minimal amounts of time. It's fun to practice getting better!
From my experience, I highly recommend having a dedicated teacher to help teach and develop these tools with the student.
