Instruments: Piano Voice Music Keyboard

I love tailoring each lesson to each individual student I teach. It is important to me that my students are interested in the material that they are learning. I enjoy helping my students reach their musical goals by selecting repertoires that appeal to them while also helping to address and resolve their technical deficiencies. For my beginning piano students, I typically start with Faber's Piano Adventures. For young singers, I use the Kodaly Method as a way of developing musical skills and teaching musical concepts.

I am looking to build my teaching experience on Musika but I have taught a few unofficial lessons to students in their teenage years.

Through this experience, I have helped unlock my students' potential and build them into more well-rounded drummers. I like to encourage regular practice with a consistent schedule that my student feels comfortable with. Read More

Instruments: Flute

I use a big diversity of books and methods for my flute classes, that I pick trying to adapt to my students' age and interests. With little children I use many short and simple songs, that get more and more complex while the students are progressing. I like to introduce solo repertoire as soon as possible, to start developing the students' personal taste for music. I also encourage them to bring their own suggestions about the pieces or songs they want to play, and I create personalized technique exercises to improve the specific difficulties that they find along their practice.

It's all about each persons' desire, drive, and ability level. I work hard to hone in on each students individual needs, as they vary greatly based on age and experience. I have knowledge and repertoire for all sorts of genres, including musical theater, pop, country, opera, rock and more. Read More
