Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin Saxophone Clarinet Recorder Keyboard Acoustic Guitar
I am goofy kind of gal who is a kid at heart so, while I do not allow the students to goof-off during practice, I definitely encourage the children to have fun and take breaks. Learning a new skill is taxing on the brain so I do enjoy inserting some brain-breaks here and there, when necessary. I'm also a very big sticker advocate! Most children enjoy them, and I love rewarding them after completing a song we've been working on. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
It's very important to me that you come out of each lesson feeling proud of what you've accomplished. Of course some days are going to be harder than other days, but I always want you to feel encouraged and nurtured and aware of your progress. I have a very good balance in my lessons of supporting the student, but also pushing the student to his or her highest potential. I always remain encouraging and warm. Read More

My priorities as a teacher revolve around tailoring instruction to help students achieve their individual goals, whether they are personal goals and/or closely tied to educational/ career goals.

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing to master on my instrument is speed. When you obtain the speed that you want to obtain and want to apply it in many different songs it makes a big difference. Speed playing makes a difference in beat, soloing, and memorizing different songs. That is what it is hard to master. It is something that you would acquire throughout time and just throughout practice. Another thing that is hard to master is to learn step by step on what exactly you want to play. IT is hard for beginners and when i was a beginner I did not know until I practiced and practiced. I eventually got use to my instrument.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I do use a specific teaching methods and that is through listening, utube tutorials and through music theory. I choose ear training since ear training is a fabulous ability that most people want to acquire. It is an easy ability that I have. I taught a lot of people about ear training and that it's benefits about ear training. One of the reasons is that you as a musician would have better performance and better accuracy. I choose utube since a lot of people have the ability to learn visually. By watching you have a better picture of what exactly you want to play. Finally, I choice music theory since that's where all the principals of music is at. You get to learn a lot about music theory and get to also teach about what you learned.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A normal practice for me is preparing every instrument I have at my control and hanging out with friends or students. Helping them choose the structure of their song and where they want to take their own song. Preparing the sound, equipment, and lights. Every practice session should have a light and music sheets hanging on their wall. Many artists that inspire them and guitars, pianos, many books about music. It has to be sound prove and their should be total silence when entering the room. In the end you are the one that gets to manage how you would want to manage your own practice session.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
If I had a degree it would be on Music teacher. Ever since I was a kid i always had the desire and passion to teach music to anyone one at any age. My biggest dream was to become a music teacher and to teach music of my own knowledge and my own understanding of music. I started realizing that through out time i wanted this job since it was a job that I would stick with it for the rest of my life knowing that I impacted many children and teenager's lives throughout my music and my music lessons.

This is for my wife. She can read music, but hasn't had lessons for many years. Interested in teaching her in our home once a week or every other week.
