Music Lessons in South Jordan, UT

Instruments: Violin

While still in high school, I discovered that I love watching others realize their own musical potential. I began with tutoring my peers and enjoyed it enough to take on students of my own. My teaching had to take a pause during my college years, but I have been looking forward to the freedom to teach again! I try to help my students feel comfortable with themselves and their abilities because it can be frustrating to not understand a concept immediately or progress as quickly as others, and I want them to enjoy the music while they're playing rather than comparing themselves to others.

Instruments: Drums

I started drumming when I was 13 years old with the desire to join a rock band. My first teacher was Jaime Jesperson, who opened my eyes to the world of advanced drumming styles beyond the world of rock music. My studies with him prepared me to study with Jay Lawrence, Utah's premier jazz drummer, and to qualify for a music scholarship at Brigham Young University, where I performed in several jazz groups and orchestral groups.

Instruments: Drums

I dont believe in high pressure, the instructor student relationship should be one of support not rivalry or condemnation. That is not to say that a strong practice ethic is not expected. Repetition is a proven way to build any skill and drumming is no different. One of the most important aspects of practicing is to enjoy practice, so I work with students to develop a practice space and a routine. Read More

Instruments: Violin

I started teaching over ten years ago. I have taught several amazing violin and piano students ages 4-16 over the years. In my experience, I've found that the Suzuki Violin method books work very well for private lessons but can teach other methods. I have a degree in violin performance and play the piano as well. I've also taught 4th-12th grade orchestra in Arizona and Utah. Please contact me to have a trial lesson for yourself or your child. Read More
