Instruments: Piano
I have been teaching music since I was a teenager. I started with my neighborhood friends, and later at a school of music, where I also hosted showcase concerts for my students. I then went into private teaching in 2009, and have been teaching student of all ages at their homes. I also taught high school choir, which was a life changing experience for me, as it gave me new insight to older children and how musical tastes evolve as they grow older. Read More

I have been singing and teaching for over 30 years both professionally and for my own enjoyment. Singing is my passion, it is what I do. I have found that teaching someone to enjoy and express themselves through music is perhaps one of the most rewarding things I do. For the past several years I have had the privilege to teach within several school districts as a Private Voice Instructor. These districts include Arlington ISD, Grapevine ISD, Plano ISD and Lewisville ISD. During my time with Grapevine ISD I worked closely with Music Faculty in support of their program which included writing curriculum for the Music History program. I work closely with my students and their Choral Director to make the musical experience fun and rewarding. At the end of the school year the students perform in recital for their parents and friends. I am always very proud of my students as they demonstrate what they have learned and how much they have improved through the year. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I move at whatever pace is appropriate for the particular student. We set long-term goals so they have something they are working towards and are rewarded for hard work. Learning how to play the piano is about so much more than just the piano! The benefits reach far beyond music, helping them with school, self-confidence, and many other aspects in their everyday life. Although we do follow a method book for at least the first few years, we add additional solo music, and I let them choose from several level-appropriate pieces so that they are enjoying what they are learning.

Instruments: Piano
I started studying piano in my early teens and have continued studying all of my life. Even to this day I still practice 30-45 minutes every morning. I have played professionally all of my life as an accompanist for vocal and instrumental soloists, and having taught high school choral music for over 20 years, accompanied a variety of vocal ensembles. I have performed for weddings, banquets, parties, and civic gatherings, and have been my church's pianist and chief musician for the past 15 years. Read More

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My first teacher, (from 8 until I was 12), was a very sweet, older man, who did a wonderful job teaching me the basics. I was a bit sad and surprised when he told me he had taught me everything he could, and that it was time for me to find a more advanced teacher. My second teacher was a professional studio and television musician. He inspired me to perform and work with other musicians. By the time I was 16, I was playing weddings and other well paid gigs, as well as playing in the studio and with several bands. I teach my students, no matter what age, the music they like. I know that a student will practice more, and get more enjoyment from playing the type of music they like. Yes I play and teach every genre from old fashioned country to progressive Hip Hop, and everything in between, including rock and roll, Mozart, Beethoven and Michael Jackson.
When will I start to see results?
If the student practices you'll see results very quickly. If not they'll go slowly or just stay in the same place. I will not continue to teach a student who does not practice. My cardinal rule is, if I have to teach you the same lesson, 3 times, because you didn't practice, I will fire you as a student. I don't like to teach the same lesson over and over, and I feel like I'm stealing money for doing nothing, and I have a moral problem with that. Again, you get out of music lessons, what you put in.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
I feel it is important to practice soon after a lesson. The next day at the latest. If not the student will, most likely, forget some, if not all of the lesson. Many students seem to wait until the day of the lesson, to practice the last lesson. This is a set up for failure. You are better off practicing 20 minutes a day, than an hour and a half on one day. Students need to stop, if they're having trouble with a certain measure, and analyze and work on that measure. Just playing through the song, as best as you can, not stopping to fix or correct mistakes, is really not practicing.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
It depends upon the child. With very young children, attention span is sometimes a problem. Understanding some basic math and fractions is quite helpful. I've taught several children fractions. I have taught a 3 1/2 year old successfully, using color. Whenever I'm asked to teach a child younger than 6 years, I set up an evaluation lesson. I can generally see, pretty quickly, if we should start lessons. If your child is interested in listening to the sound of things vibrating. When I was 4 years old, I would take our oven wire rack, put it up to my ear, and pluck it like a harp. I remember to this day, how good the sound made me feel. I was able to start lessons when I was 8.
