Music Lessons in Marquez, TX

Instruments: Piano Voice Violin Accordion Fiddle Keyboard

Though I went on to pursue other studies, music has remained both a leading player in my life and the field in which I have the most raw talent and experience. Since then I have performed in several groups and as a solo act. I played fiddle for the Galveston based folk band "The Grog". I was the resident church pianist for Christ Presbyterian Church in Daphne, AL, as well as the Keyboardist and backup singer for the Daphne based classic rock band "Mid Life Crisis" for three years.

Instruments: Oboe Music

I have been teaching lessons off and and on since I graduated high school. I like to encourage using a set schedule for lessons and practicing so that student can develop the habits they need to progress through musical learning. I like to find out if students like a certain type or genre of music so that we can see how this music connects with the classical studies and repertoire that is recommended for learning. Read More

Instruments: Piano

For beginning students who are children, I typically prefer the Faber Piano Adventure Series. Written by a couple who are educated both in music as well as child development, I believe that this is a great mix of developmentally appropriate pacing and fun. For adults, I try to focus on personal goals as well as music reading background, while I'm happy to recommend a method book (such as Alfred's great Adult Piano series). Read More

Instruments: Guitar

For adults, lessons can be much more free form. If you have experience with guitar then we can go right ahead and find out where your skills lay and build from there. If you've just started, we can build from the bottom, starting with more fundamental skills and then progressing to more personally interesting music. Regardless of the age or methods I apply, I will make sure that you or your child will grow steadily, building confidence in your personal musical abilities, all on the foundations of patience and practice.

Instruments: Piano Voice

My teaching experience involves both in the school classroom setting and outside in the private studio. I was given the opportunity to work as a vocal consultant at the middle school level in 2016 and coached the students one-on-one on their region competition pieces. The following year, I taught private voice lessons of which most were beginning students. My students came from zero knowledge to obtaining the ability to sing and sight-read, an understanding of the music theory, and could now say "I can sing"! Read More

Instruments: Clarinet

Teaching clarinet and piano has been the most rewarding part of my musical journey. I started by teaching masterclasses to high school students in 2017, and from there I began teaching lessons in the Bryan/College Station area. I have taught middle school and high school level students ranging from beginners to advanced level students. Outside of music, I am also a teacher at a daycare, so I work with small children on a daily basis! Read More
