I always want my students to have a very positive experience taking lessons and never to feel as if there is too much pressure put on them. Every student is different so I don't have a specific teaching formula. I always ensure that the student is moving at a comfortable pace for them while still being challenged and learning new things. I am always quick to acknowledge every small bit of progress that they make and focus on the positives rather than the negatives. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I prefer to instruct out of the James Bastien method books for the student's main lesson assignments. However, I also encourage students to bring and play out of books that inspire and motivate them individually. This keeps lessons lighthearted and keeps the student interested in the next lesson in my experience. I set realistic weekly and monthly goals for my students so I'm able to gauge how the student has performed, as well as how they should be instructed going forward. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Music Keyboard
My ultimate aim in teaching is to build a solid foundation of music based on the musical ability of each age group and offer a suitable curriculum. In Vietnam, I had a four-year Intermediate Education Diploma in voice. I took many opportunities to be a volunteer musician at church since she 8 years old until now in singing and playing the piano. I have my own private voice and piano studio for all different ages. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Music
I have worked with beginner students, looking to learn more about their voice and what it can do. I have worked with students that are at the height of the professional singing career and I have helped them refine and nuance their audition package. I have helped singers work on their own musical compositions for an upcoming indie/pop/and/or RB album release. My job is to help you reach your goals, and I'm so excited to listen to your voice grow!" Read More

Before entering graduate school, I served as a band director in Illinois public schools for two years. During that time, I taught a 4th grade recorder class, 5th grade band, 6th grade band, 7th/8th grade band, and high school band. During graduate school I was the instructor of horn for the Western Illinois University Summer Music Institute, and I have taught private horn lessons to a variety of undergraduate music students as a part of my graduate teaching assistantship at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
1. Get on a schedule. The connection between mind and body is an amazing thing. Establishing a regular routine and practice time helps to engage both mind and body within practice, thereby facilitating more efficient development of the mental and physical skills needed to become a better musician.
2. Tune in to the music and out of the media. Given enough time/exposure, even the most motivated minds will succumb to the temptations of readily available distractions. So practice in a room separate from devices that provide distraction. Put the phone on silent and in a different room. Turn off any screens that cannot be easily removed from the room.
3. Start small. Practice for meaningful improvement in a narrow scope. If you try to cover too much ground in a single practice session you will not be able to see much of anything in the way of improvement. Narrowing the scope of a practice session allows for focus and improvement in small areas that when linked together across multiple practice sessions will yield meaningful improvement over a larger scope.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Control is the most difficult thing to master on the trumpet. It is easy to play loud and fast with an edgy sound. It is easy to play soft and slow with a breathy sound. It takes consistent time and effort to develop the control necessary for consistent tone across every style of music. It takes even more time and effort beyond that to build up the control necessary to modify your sound to play with tone appropriate to each unique style of music. There is a fine line within the tonal range of the trumpet wherein the sound is distinctly that of the trumpet yet does not push the sound beyond the range of pleasant tone.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
My favorite style of music to play is jazz. While jazz can have the connotation of being a technically "loose" style of music, an understanding of classical music theory is enormously beneficial to playing jazz. The seeming freedom heard in jazz music is based on the foundation of classical music. As such, jazz is a unique blending of emotion, knowledge, and technical ability that, to me, represents the best parts of music performance rolled up into a single style. Also, the sheer breadth of jazz as a genre of music allows for significant variance in styling and sound while under the same genre umbrella.
