Instruments: Piano Organ Synthesizer Keyboard
I have been a music instructor since 1979. I teach the piano, spinet organ and keyboards. I also have a passion in MIDI computer music. I love seeing students excel and be given the opportunity to do well in their skill set. The process of life-long learning, sharing of knowledge and skills is one of my deepest passions in the teaching and training field. I enjoy teaching both onsite and online utilizing traditional methods along with current computer technology combined with effective teaching strategies and approaches which engages students and learners in a motivating and enriching learning experience.

Instruments: Piano Drums
I like to see where the student is at level wise and take it from there. Example : if the student has never played before, we will start with how to hold the sticks. If there at level three but haven't touched 16th note triplets and go from there. If there trying to play Rush 2112 but are having trouble with certain parts - we will dissect it and concentrate on problem areas. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin
My teaching began simply by teaching fellow classmates in my school years but at the end of high school i quickly began to branch out to other students. By 19 i had about 20 students from the age of 5 all the way to age 45, from beginner to advanced levels. My Goal is to create a fun, and safe lesson environment where my students feel motivated to cultivate and grow their love and understanding of music, theory, technique, and performance skills.

Instruments: Piano Voice Drums Latin Percussion Keyboard Djembe
There are many books on drums and piano or voice. I have to get to know the student to determine what I will use to get better results. It will depend on their age and attitude and initial talent. Also, a lot of kids are busy at school and don't have much time for practice. It means I need to get a lot done during the actual lesson and make sure that the info I m giving is settling in and there are no gray areas and questions of what to do until next lesson. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone Bass Guitar
For a first timer i typically would relate with the student so as to connect with the basis for their interest in learning the musical instrument. Different students have different levels of perception or assimilation. This i establish before i even start the introductory class proper. Then i go through the fundamentals with the student, and observe their progress along the way. My instruction is flexible even though its structured in a way that prompts the student for further and regular improvements. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
Patience is a word that characterizes my teaching style!!! My classes are very dynamic! I always adapt each lesson in accordance with the students interests, skill level, personality, and learning style. I am flexible when it comes to teaching new knowledge. I will always find a way for my students to learn quickly and easily! With all them I have a great chemistry because of my kind and cheerful personality; and I can guarantee that both, my students and I, enjoy every second of our class!!!!! Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Violin Cello Viola Electric Violin Keyboard
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Most recently, I've been challenging myself as a musician by playing the cello (not my primary or secondary instrument!) and singing (also not my primary or secondary!) at the same time! I'm proud of every moment I feel myself grow as a musician or surprise myself with what can be accomplished with a bit of practice.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
My sister is a soprano who also plays the ukulele and viola. She teaches music at an elementary school in Augusta, Georgia. Her husband is a trumpeter who occasionally picks up the guitar as well. They both hold music degrees.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
Any time I pick up a new instrument it starts out as mostly necessity, but quickly becomes pure joy. My string quartet back in high school needed a violist, so I picked that up so we could compete in the Solo/Ensemble Festival. I enjoyed it so much I became the violist for the string quartet at my university. After college, I got a job as a chorus teacher, so I got much more adept at singing. I later landed an orchestra director position and we had few cellists, so I drilled my cello chops so I could recruit some. A few years back, a friend insisted that because I'm a musician (violinist,etc) I could teach her son the piano; I've now been teaching piano now for over three years to a dozen students. My favorite to play now is the cello, even though I still consider my primary instrument - and first love! - to be the violin.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I chose my Bachelor of Music in Music Education because I valued the well-rounded program of study it offered.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I would most likely be teaching something, even if it weren't music; history or language arts. I might be a writer or a visual artist. I definitely would not be a mathematician ;)
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I adore so many different styles, but my duet is where I flex my creative muscles. Between the two of us, we play the violin, viola, cello, piano, guitar, bass, ukulele, and we both sing. Arranging rock music for any combination of those instruments has become a passion. I feel like a Rockstar when I'm belting out lyrics while holding down a bassline on the cello!
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
For new Violin, Viola, and Cello students I prefer the Essential Elements books. They offer a quick introduction to the instrument and solid exercises throughout. I've seen many students off to a great start in building their technique using them!
