I love seeing my students develop a deeper passion for music! I work extremely hard to pull on every student to ensure that they are getting better and seeing results everyday! At the beginning of each session I set goals or expectations to meet by the end of the session. Seeing quick progress increases a students desire to keep striving & want to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. Read More

Over 30 years of private and public/private teaching experience. I love to teach. In my lessons, I get to know each student personally, learn their strengths and weaknesses and proceed from there. Each student is unique and learns at a different pace. It is important for a teacher to know this and to work on technique, pieces, and recital planning to best showcase each individual. My methods have always been successful, and taking a student from point A to point B, C, D and beyond is so rewarding in my work. Read More

For most students, I typically start with breathing exercises and warm ups to learn the student's voice. I would ask for the student to prepare a song of their choice and we would typically spend a few lessons learning the fundamentals and engaging in proper technique. I like to make learning fun, so there are a few exercises that I have up my sleeve that are engaging and fun, no matter what the student's ability level may be. Read More
