Music Lessons in Clearwater Beach, FL

Instruments: Piano

I lead structured lessons but work with each individual to determine a lesson style that best meets their need. As a music therapist, I am trained and qualified to work with a variety of individuals with different abilities. Through my years as a music therapist and piano teacher, I have honed my skills in patience, encouragement, flexibility, understanding, and compassion for every person I work with. My goals are always to lead students towards developing their own understanding of, and passion for, the music they learn to create. Read More

Instruments: Flute Clarinet

Every lesson that I teach is focused on the student's individual needs and skills. For beginning students, I like to start with a method book such as Essential Elements. For students with moderate experience and advanced students I find it helpful to work on repertoire that interests the students. This could be music that the student is working on in class or music that I find for students to work on. Read More

Instruments: Clarinet

I opened my clarinet studio while in college. Over the next decade, my studio grew to over 40 students. It was a diverse studio with clarinetists of all levels and ages! I am excited to be teaching privately, and building my studio again, here in Florida! Lessons with me will be a good mix of work and fun. Proper preparation (regular practice) is encouraged, as well as student input. What a student WANTS to learn is just as important as what a student NEEDS to learn. Read More

As I previously mentioned above,I show each student as much as they can pick up.I can show a student just about anything they want to learn,but its really about how much they practice at home that determines their ability.If the student practices a lot we move much quicker and it becomes more fun and challenging.Music is endless and you can never stop learning.they are proving more and more every day how music affects your brain.When you just listen to music,you use every part of your brain.Few things do that.When you play music you are using even more of your brain.

Instruments: Piano Keyboard

I love watching them grow and learn through varied ways of instruction. I find that a combination of ways to motivate students to practice as well as learn music theory works best. From having log books to keep up with practice time, to flash cards to help with music theory I incorporate many methods so that students learn all they need to but do not get bored in the process.
