Instruments: Piano Synthesizer
My teaching experience spans over the course of the past5 years, as I began teaching when I was in college, and since then have branched out to teaching students of all ages in both my recording studio and church. I encourage students to practice on a regular basis, especially with the younger students, as it aids in the student's progress, growth and passion for playing the piano. My job is to ensure that the lesson is an experience that is rewarding, memorable and most of all, fun. Read More

Fun is the goal of each student because a student enjoying themselves will always want to practice and be successful. I try to incorporate as much learning in a light, fun filled environment as possible to keep the student interested. Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for their gift/talent. Therefore, it’s important that each student develops at their own pace. We set realistic goals together and then I create a program based on those goals. Read More

There is nothing more fulfilling for me than witnessing one of my students discover and nurture a genuine passion for music! To foster this enthusiasm, it is crucial that each student is allowed to progress at their own individual pace. I achieve this by establishing realistic, attainable goals for each lesson, which are tailored to the specific needs and skill levels of my students. Recognizing and celebrating accomplishmentsno matter how smallplays a vital role in maintaining a students motivation and enthusiasm. Read More
Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone Euphonium Tuba
My method of teaching differs upon each student. I am well rounded for diverse environments, genders, and ages. I use the Standards of Excellence method books for those who are looking for a formal/structured way of learning. For those who are looking for a little less casual way of learning, I use concepts that include different genres of music that include but are not limited to; jazz, classical, contemporary, and pop music as a method that gives students their own creative learning experience.

Instruments: Piano
I conduct my beginner lessons with a spirit of play. I believe this engages the attention and energy of the student, promoting deeper learning. My students build self-esteem by mastering new skills. Skills are taught in a sequential way so all students can feel successful. I teach students how to practice so that each student learns how to accomplish their goals. Regular practice is an important part of piano lessons and advances musical understanding as well as muscle flexibility and control. Read More

For beginning piano players I use Alfred's Basic music Library Books, which is a great course! There are books for children level, as well as adult books, which may be accompanied by a workbook and a recital book. Depending on the students level, I try to accomplish completing 1-2 pages in the book each lesson. For voice lessons, I use a variety of vocal warm ups and breathing techniques to help students prepare for songs of their choice. Read More
Instruments: Piano Keyboard
I began teaching my first student when I was in high school. I enjoyed it so much that I decided then that I would incorporate teaching piano in my future. After I had my twins and became a stay at home mom, I began to teach students in my studio. I was instructed by two professors for almost 20 years in private lessons. I have played for more than 300 weddings, funerals, and receptions. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
First, they need the support and supervision of the parents or child care workers. It is especially great if parents sing or play a flute, for instance, along with the student's piano.
For students who have moved into playing with both hands, I point out how unique it is that the piano can accompany itself. I advise them to practice each hand separately and then to slowly put both hands together. The are usually amazed that they can do it. One student came up with the idea that "Amazing Grace" is the way to signal to me that his lesson has ended and it also signals to his household when his practice time has ended. They love the song so I explained the story about John Newton's and why he wrote it. Music lessons can become teaching opportunities in many ways. When he plays it to at practice, his mom knows she can put supper on the table.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
It can be hard to tell if a child is ready to start lessons until you actually sit down with him or her child and make them realize they have to pay attention and engage as instructed. Although a teacher wants to make learning anything fun at first, the child needs to accept that it isn't just a play date with music thrown in. How soon they can focus and sit still for 30 minutes varies. I am willing to try it at age 4, but it usually doesn't work. I don't have a minimum age requirement, but it progresses works best if they have started school and can read at least a little.
When will I start to see results?
You will start to see results when a student can look at the simplified, large size notes on paper and know how to play the song as written. I usually give them a paper keyboard to line up where the keys meet the backboard and learn to match "a" on the printed music with playing the "a" key. It is a shift, but I compare it to learning the alphabet, then making words, then sentences. It requires a connection and we usually start with something they already know, such as "Twinkle, Twinkle little star" or another childhood song. Sometimes I get a younger sibling to sing along with the older child playing. I've found students like to "teach", too.
