I began my teaching career as a middle and high school band director and taught beginning classes and lessons as well as concert and marching bands.

I really enjoyed seeing how much my students would progress in private lessons and how successful they were in recitals and at piano guild contest.

I have 23 years of teaching experience in a variety of settings. I enjoy working with students of all ages. Music is an international language that has brought me many wonderful life experiences. In addition to classroom and private instruction, I compose my own music. I perform regularly at folk venues and festivals. My classical music training and my love for Broadway have influenced my writing. My musician friends call my genre 'theatrical folk.' I enjoy sharing my knowledge and love of music with my students.

I explain that middle C is the reference point, moving to the right you ascend the musical alphabet: CDEFGABC...moving to the left you descend the alphabet: CBAGFEDC...We have fun saying that backward fast. I then explain half steps and whole steps, sharps go up (to the right) one half step and flats go down one-half step. I continue this logic by explaining the formula for a major scale WW1/2 WWW1/2.

Ive been told I am a very encouraging teacher. My goal is to teach the student something new in every class. Lessons can focus on technique, performance, sight reading / singing, ear training, music history, music theory, composition, improvisation, fakebooks and more. Piano lessons can cover everything from how to sit at the piano to using rotational movements to get accuracy in large leaps. I focus on musicality. A student does have to be Lang Lang to sound beautiful. Read More

I customize each lesson specifically for my students so that they remain satisfied and fulfilled with what they are learning.Each student has different interests and its my job to build a music curriculum around them.

My teaching experience dates back to when I was a Junior in high school. I began teaching some group guitar classes and violin lessons. I believe that it's important to instill a love for music as that is what will keep the student practicing throughout the years. I am certified to teach the O'Connor method. A fun fiddling style of music. And also teach the essentials through classical music. I'm open to supplementing with any other songs the student would want to learn. Read More
