Music Lessons in Webster, NY

Instruments: Piano Voice

Teaching should be fun for both the teacher and student! I truly believe that the teacher should learn as much from the teacher as the student learns.

The voice is such an innate part of you--no one's vocal instrument is exactly like yours! Read More

More importantly, I want to teach the student what they are truly interested in with music, and I have plenty of material to discuss if they are unsure of this interest. Read More
