As a teacher, I have been fortunate to teach students ages 4-65 from all backgrounds and skill levels. I began teaching private voice and piano lessons at a music studio while I was in high school. That is where my love of teaching was born and I have made teaching a priority in my life ever since. I have also been fortunate to teach internationally. I spent time teaching English in Uganda, music in India, and have taught ESL in the United States. Read More

WHAT DO WE DO HERE? I try hard to present students with a solid, broad based approach with an emphasis on understanding the fundamentals of musical comprehension, music reading, musical memory, and ear development. These are essential to playing and enjoyment of any instrument! To this end we cover theory, music history, performance, technique and practical application. These basics are supplemented and reinforced by the monthly group sessions, several annual field trips, access to regional, state and national music competitions and performances, as well as the formal Student Evaluations each Spring.

I am currently in the teaching certificate program for Elementary Education through Rio Salado College. Read More
Instruments: Piano Music
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
My practice session encompasses several parts. I always begin with technical exercises, like scales, arpeggios and octave study. I use Hanon and sometimes finger exercises. I vary them so I don't work on each one daily.
After my muscles are warmed up I work on the individual compositions. My programs always consist of a selection of different composers from many classical through modern periods and styles. I choose to focus on a particular section. My practice involves separate hands, different tempi and dynamics.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I have had several piano and general music teachers in both private and school setting study.
Not one teacher inspired me to major in music. Each had a different specialty and style of teaching. In my early years, my teacher held group recitals. I loved the excitement of performing and it was fun to be in the spotlight. In high school I had taken AP courses and liked learning theory. In college I was taught by professional artists who were outstanding as performers and composers. I remember fondly when Arthur Rubinstein gave a Master Class.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
The best results are achieved with daily practice. It is sometimes hard to find the time to practice every day. But instead of skipping a day, establish a shorter period of practice. To be efficient, ask yourself, "What do I need to focus on today?" Maybe it is a section of a piece, or a technique that is new. Practicing can also be hearing the piece played. Youtube is a good helper. In addition, a lot can be gained by getting another person to listen. This suggestion can be used for both beginner, intermediate and advanced students.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Some children will ask for lessons because a friend of theirs is already learning.
In general, it is a good indication if your child is ready to start lessons if they show an interest in music. I have seen that all children gravitate to the music instruments they see in schools and special museums. Children just love to touch instruments and hear different sounds. They are naturally curious about creating different sounds. If you have ever gone to a house that has an instrument, see how they flock to it!
When will I start to see results?
Results take the shape in many different ways:
For the Parent of a child:
- seeing the continued interest in the child
- the student showing "off" by playing for friends and family
- the child telling the parent that they are having fun!
- the child's academic subjects in school show improvement
For the student:
- being able to read music
- being able to play a song
- being able to follow a piece of music while hearing it
- being able to sight read
- being able to perform either solo or with other musicians
