Instruments: Piano
My teaching experience dates back to my high school days, as I began teaching private lessons. I have been consistently teaching piano students in my home studio for the last 5 years. I use practice incentives to encourage regular practice as it helps students progress. My studio hosts a yearly recital where students can showcase their talent for family and friends. I incorporate music theory and history into each leason as well as composition. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Clarinet
I’m a positive instructor who thoroughly loves working with students, helping them meet their goals, and enabling them to enjoy music for the rest of their lives! I have a Masters in clarinet performance from Indiana University, but also hold a Bachelors in music education with a current K-12 instrumental teaching license. I’ve been blessed to perform all over the United States, at Carnegie Hall, and in 5 other countries with orchestras, bands, and a drum & bugle corps. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Ukulele Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
In my time as an instructor, I have not used any particular method book in my lessons. I will buy a notebook for each student where all important information from the lesson will be recorded. I write charts and exercises myself using tablature or standard notion depending on the student. As music being such a cumulative concept, I like to not only focus on pedagogy, but music theory and aural skills as well. Read More
Instruments: Piano Music Keyboard
I'm a passionate and motivated instructor who love working with students and sharing my love love of music. I started playing classical piano since I was four. In 2009, I graduated from Tianjin Conservatory of Music with a Bachelor of Arts in Keyboards Performance. In 2017, I graduated from Indiana University Jacobs School of Music with a Master of Music degree in Jazz Studies (Jazz Piano), and in 2019, I graduated from IU with a Master of Science degree in Music Education, along with Indiana K-12 General and Instrumental Music teaching certificate.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet Oboe
I am a current student at Ball State University studying to receive a Bachelor of Science Degree in Instrumental/General Music Education with an add-on in Vocal Education. I am passionate about teaching music and helping others reach their full potential on whatever instruments they want to play. I am versatile and can play on almost every instrument with piano as my primary focus. When I am not teaching, I spend my time practicing, performing, and always striving to improve on any and every instrument I have available. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Saxophone Drums Organ Synthesizer Music Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
Every student learns differently, so by finding out what inspires my student, I am able to create individiualized lesson plans that cater to my student's needs without losing focus on the fundamentals of music. Music is such a blessing and should be fun! Ample time is given to students to discover their own music and inherent rhythms while studying the vast pedigree of music that has come before us. My lesson plans incorporate everything from reading writing music, jam sessions (often times with me!), and recording time. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I believe the foundation of progress is consistency, so I try to establish routines with my students, spending part of each lesson on technical exercises, theory/aural skills training, and repertoire. I also set performance goals for students by organizing recitals *this has been more tricky during Covid, but I think it is important nonetheless to get students to perform from memory at least twice a year (once at the end of fall and spring terms).

Instruments: Piano Voice Flute
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Touch your instrument every day you eat. LOL! In all seriousness, it is better to practice a little bit for many days in between lessons, than just cram a practice session in the day before. ALWAYS practice the day of your lesson (right after) OR the next day to put into practice at home what you learned during the lesson.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
What I like is if your child can read, they are ready. I will take younger children, with parent involvement - and those lessons are more game based and introduction to the instrument rather than serious study.
When will I start to see results?
The more time you invest in your instrument and the more you practice the way the teacher asks you to practice, the sooner the results. I also tell students that I go as fast or slow as the student tells me, through the interactions at lesson. Some students go very quickly and learn quickly, others need more time.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My mother is in music, and you can say I was in music before I was even born. She is definitely an inspiration and a current teacher of mine in both piano, pedagogy, and business. My flute teacher is Gary Schocker, the more prolific living flute composer, and is absolutely a fabulous flute player! I have learned so much from him - and when he looked at me and said, "Why you can really play!" I think it changed my life!
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I chose flute since before I was born. The first instruments I recognized was piano (my mother's instrument) and flute. We think she composed a flute solo in her final senior orchestral composition project, which I must have attached to.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am most proud of being able to use my music no matter what was happening in life- from losing family members, to moving around the country since marriage, to raising 5 children. It has always been a part of my life, and I have always found places to play.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
One that comes to mind is a flute student of mine when I taught in Naperville, IL. The Catholic Church in town was very particular on who would play for important services, and one of the most important ones was the midnight mass on Christmas Eve/Day. She was chosen as a sophomore in high school to play in that orchestra, the only high schooler asked in the parish. I went into the crowded church and found a seat in a tiny corner. It was one of the most beautiful musical times I was able to enjoy!
