Music Lessons in Blue Diamond, NV

Instruments: Piano Trumpet Recorder French Horn Oboe Keyboard

It is important that each student enjoys playing the piano and is willing to practice every day without being told by their guardian that its time to practice. With that being said, it is important that I allow each student to progress at his or her own pace. It is useless to move on to a new lesson if the student has not mastered what was taught on the most recent lesson. Read More

After earning a degree in Theater from UMD, I moved to New York City to start my career in performance. My journey took me to some great cities such as Paris, where I was able to sing in French and imerse myself in the rich culture of France. From there I traveled to the "All American City of Entertainment", Las Vegas, NV. My extensive background in songwriting led me to write, produce and record my own CD, "Almost Home". Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice

I enjoy motivating students who enjoy performing and learning the different aspects of music and the music international business. In 2007, I graduated from West Virginia University with a Bachelor of Arts and Science degree along with certification from Berklee School of Music. Performing all over the world has been one of the greater experiences of my life as a musician, and I've had the opportunity to play on the Las Vegas Strip for eight years, as well as touring the world as a solo piano player/singer in five-star hotels.

Instruments: Piano

I take an informative approach, working on mastering the basics first for beginners. For advanced students we work on more individualized techniques and mastering specific performance and musical styles. Music is a life-long art, and I teach my students to enjoy it and perform it at the highest level. Read More

Instruments: Violin

I believe that no one system works for every student. My main focus in teaching is to find the best way for each student to learn and to enjoy playing. I know that if the student doesn't like their lessons, it makes it more difficult to learn and may lead to that student deciding they no longer want to play. In each lesson, we will work on as much technique as possible, but as long as students continue to learn and are motivated to play, I won't push them beyond what they are ready or willing to do.

Instruments: Drums

I realize that every student learns at their own pace. I have a relaxed, patient style to fit any students' needs. I encourage daily practice, yet I understand that this may not always be possible. I never force a student to learn what they don't like and always ask what they would like to get out of learning the drums. I know how to get results and with a little faith, I will help the student achieve their goals. Read More
