I do that by simply finding out what they enjoy. And when I find what they love I teach it to them. For ex. teaching them how to play their favorite songs or to play the theme song from their favorite tv show. Small things like this are what keeps students engaged and exited about lessons. The excited created bring pure joy to students and that joy bring peace and happiness to me. Read More

I like to start with the basics. Its important to let the student gain confidence in their instrument. So I start with very simple task that would be easy to do while I'm present so if they have any questions I can answer. I also do everything in three's...if we are working on the C scale and we get it correct I like to do it three time straight for memory. Read More

Music provides students with both expression and community, both of which I believe students- and all people- need.As a teacher, I believe that my strongest commitment and my best effort are the birthright of each and every one of my students. Just as I believe that students who struggle should be given the additional help that they need in order to continue and eventually learn, I believe that students who excel should be offered the avenues that they crave in order to satiate their desires for greater challenges.

Instruments: Piano Voice
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I started on piano and only moved to voice when I was in high school. I love both of them, but I love most the voice because if its ability to communicate using words.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Several of my past students have won state and regional awards in Oklahoma, Georgia, and Texoma National Association of Teachers of Singing competitions. Other students have won national opera and art song awards and are now singing professionally. I am equally as proud of my students who have graduated with music education degrees and who are now teaching in TX, OK, and GA.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My mom was the person who first started teaching me piano and gave me my initial love of music and singing. I then joined choir in high school, where my choir teacher eventually persuaded me to take voice lessons! Both my mom and my choir teacher inspired me because they saw my potential even when I sang out of tune and didn’t work hard. They inspired me to do better and to go out on a limb and try. And I found that I loved it when I got there.
When will I start to see results?
The voice is comprised of many muscles, and like all the other muscles of the human body, it takes time for the vocal muscles to grow and strengthen. Patience is key! However, it is possible to often see almost immediate results from better breathing, focused practice, and figuring out how to relax and release the voice to be free and resonant like it should be.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Anyone can learn to sing. My kids started matching pitch and singing along to songs when they were a very young age! However, for the youngest students, lessons are obviously going to be shorter than with my adult students, who can easily concentrate for an hour of hard work.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Effective practice is one of THE best ways you’re going to improve. I practice more effectively when I have goals, both long-term and short-term. An example from my own experience is how I recently learned a song. I had the long-term goal of learning it, polishing it, and performing it in a public setting. I broke that into achievable short-term goals for each day. These short-term goals helped me reach my long-term goals in time to give an excellent and effective performance.
Effective practice also means you practice smart. No one would go to the gym one time a month but spend ten hours there! The same is also true for singing. Even ten-fifteen minutes daily is going to be more helpful than eight hours cramming the day before your next lesson.
