There I was able to fully direct the freshman level band. I also had the opportunity to teach the Symphonic Band, as well as the Wind Ensemble.

Instruments: Piano

I am a very nurturing, sensitive and engaging piano teacher and I love discovering what excites my student - then I can cater to their specific needs and strengths. I understand that children these days are so overbooked with activities and I appreciate parents who prioritize practice time: only 15 minutes of daily practicing makes an enormous difference. My teaching styles may vary, but the goal is always the same: to take the student as far as musically possible! Read More

Instruments: Drums

My favorite moment is when the student hears himself or herself actually playing the beat or fill that I have been instructing. Reaching this point repeatedly keeps my students practicing and engaged in the process of learning drums. My teaching occurs both on the drumset and on the drum pad. Regular use of the drum pad builds rudimentary skills, grip and forearm strength, and patience and listening skills, all of which are necessary to get where we want to go. Read More
