Instruments: Piano Voice
I have had the passion of teaching piano since I started building experience through further studying Piano Pedagogy. The courses I was honored to take were extremely valuable for the piano teaching jobs I was able to find for the next decade. My most rewarding experience was when my long-term student of 5 years won first place in her first "Battle of the Bands" for playing Bruno Mars' "Just the Way You Are". Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Cello
Music should be fun. Plain and simple thats why I believe and that is whats kept me pushing forward. Its not going to always be an easy experience learning new things but that does not mean it cannot be fun. I want my students to feel like they are more than enough to play this song or sing that song. I want my students to believe in themselves as much as I believe in them. Read More
Instruments: Piano Keyboard
I started teaching at 11. People heard me play, and they wanted their children to learn. I found that I loved teaching and when I went to college I took the pedagogy course. I found it totally inadequate. It did not teach you how to deal with your student or their parents. I want my students to learn and although most will have music as a hobby I want everyone to play the best they possibly can. Read More
Instruments: Piano Organ Music Keyboard

My students now are all piano but I do have quite a bit of experience as an accompanist for singers as well . Read More
Instruments: Piano
I develop an individual curriculum based on student's needs, ability and level of advancement. Since I do teach adults, I also schedule lessons to fit their life style. Depending of what the student wants, I do develop an individualized lessons. I do believe that beginners do need an introduction to basic music knowledge and methods. For children, I start with basics. For adults, I first try to determine their level of ability and interest and then customize music lessons based on my determination and student's wishes. Read More

I've been actively teaching for nearly 35 years. Teaching children as well as adults. I graduated from Drake University in 1989 with a Bachelor of Music Education. While in college I played professionally in the Des Moines Symphony and was the winner of the Young Artist Contest which afforded me the privilege of featured soloist with the Drake Symphony Orchestra. I've travelled Europe performing in America's Youth in Concert and have played at Carnegie Hall, Notre Dame. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I have been teaching for seven and half years. I have taught ages five years old to seventy years old. I am patient, kind, and and very encouraging teacher. I am an excellent musician as well. All of my students improve vastly and enjoy their lessons, which are fun and focused. I assign them pieces they want to learn whether it be classical, blues, pop, or jazz. I have two recitals per year, which always helps motivate students to practice and demonstrate all their talent and hard work. Read More

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I was lucky enough to have been born in a musical family. My mother is a piano teacher and my father is a violinist. As a child, there was always music in my home, both from my parents and their friends. My mother taught me piano lessons while my father took me to see the orchestra in which he played. My parents had a music school where I also took general music classes, and learned to sing. By the time I was 12 years old and began to take trumpet lessons, I had a solid foundation in solfege, reading and writing music.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Focus on what you don't know. There is always something new to learn, so it is important to focus your practicing on new music or skills that you have not yet mastered. Avoid practicing for long periods of times without resting. Ideally, the most effective way to practice is in short bursts throughout the day. This will keep you engaged in what you are doing and will also keep you from becoming too tired physically. Listen to the best music possible. Music is about imitation, so if you imitate good music you will sound good.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
The average age for a child to begin trumpet lessons is between 9 and 10. Depending on the child, he/she may be able to start taking lessons as early as 8 years old. If your child is much younger than that, do not shy away from music. This is a great time to get them started with piano lessons as well as general music classes that will greatly contribute to their overall intellectual and psychological development. A student that begins to play another instrument after taking piano lessons is much more likely to succeed and develop faster.
When will I start to see results?
This will depend on many different factors such as; if the student has an instrument or is able to have a place to practice, parent involvement when practicing, previous musical knowledge, if the student was taught good habits or not, current level of student (beginner, intermediate, advanced).
If the student is starting from scratch, they may be able to produce a sound right away or it may take a couple of lessons. As for the intermediate students, he/she will see an improvement in their sound in a month or two. For the advanced students, change is much more difficult than the beginners and intermediate students so it will always take more time, however the results tend to be more drastic.
