I usually see what level the student is on and we go from there. The age and interest of the students will also tell me which way to go in the lesson. Usually with beginner students the Hal Leonard book is a good place to start but I'm willing to start with any beginning book. If the students are just interested in one specific thing then we focus on that. Read More

Instruments: Piano
I have been teaching for over 30 years, and I love working with children. Regular practice is important so that students can see progress and reap the rewards that come with it. I meet the students where they are at, trying to work with their particular style of learning. My lessons are based in classical music, but we learn many different styles of music as they progress. The teaching association I belong to has four festivals a year, which I encourage my students to participate in, where they perform pieces and receive constructive feedback, helping them to grow as musicians and to become comfortable playing for others.

Instruments: Piano Trombone Ukulele Recorder Euphonium Tuba
My teaching experience began when I was in college. I taught trombone and euphonium private lessons for several years in the school district that I attended when I was a student. Additionally, I also have done All State Masterclasses for the TMEA trombone etudes. Encouraging regular practice, building the life-long skill of discipline, and hard work are key skills that I enjoy getting to emphasize to my students, as it has a tendency to build student progression and ultimately gain a passion for learning the instrument.

Instruments: Piano
I am a composer who plays several instruments, and my primary instrument is piano. From 2010 to 2012, I was a full-time,self-employed piano tutor serving the Paris, TX area, with several loyal clients. What makes me stand out as an educator are two things: 1. My strong personal conviction that anything may be taught to anyone, provided that there is a willingness to learn, and that the educator is able to effectively break down the given subject into its logical components, and 2.

Instruments: Flute Piccolo
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
My degree is a BS in Arts Administration with a minor in Radio/TV from Butler University in Indianapolis, IN. For a while I thought about being a Music Education major, but felt like I would be in a better position for administration so I would have more experiences to delve into upon graduation.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I like to welcome the student and check in quickly to see how their week was. Then I would get started on scales, a few major and minor scales, as well as harmonic and melodic versions of the minor scales. Then, I like to do some short etudes in my student's text-type book. I like to end a lesson by going through the areas of full pieces that need the most help. I love to hear a piece in its entirety if there's time to do so.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
Hal Leonard is my go-to regimen for students. It's a comprehensive method which builds on the techniques needed to excel technically. I used this as a young student and feel it is a great base for young flautists.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
For me, the technical runs, trills, double and triple tonguing, 32nd note runs...I could go on and on. I could always feel the music. The technical side of hitting all the notes and having the breath support to sustain it is paramount.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I have loved teaching and witnessing how much a student has grown. That is the reason why I teach in the first place. Prior to that, I loved playing in ensembles in large music halls. You feel larger than life.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I've had my most recent student win a first place medal with her wind ensemble at their state contest. I've been working with her to enter a solo piece, but she's very shy and doesn't want to do a solo. I've also encouraged her to do a duet or trio with other flautists and I would help them as they practice. It hasn't happened yet, but I think she's more willing now than a year ago. Here's hoping she can overcome her stage fright.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
My aunt thought I had the mouth to play the flute. I also loved the way it sounded. It was a challenging instrument in that one must have a tremendous amount of air flow, as it is not easy to breathe with a flute, it takes stamina and practice.
