Instruments: Piano Voice Ukulele
For young beginners of piano, I start with Edna Mae Burnam's Step By Step Book 1, as it begins right away with basic reading of notes and music. From there, I progress into the Faber Piano Adventures Series. Adults will start with the Alfred Adult Piano Course. Voice students are welcome to choose one song each cycle, while I choose two. It's important to me that they get to express themselves and what they like, while also learning new pieces for their repertoire. Read More

Instruments: Piano
My goal of teaching is to develop students so they can proceed to a professional study in music and enjoy the music for the rest of life. It is important that students should be trained in a professional way no matter what their career is going to be. I will not force any student to do anything, however, he or she will be strongly encouraged to practice as instructed. The lessons for young kids are always relaxing, and I will plan to put more or less content depending on their mood. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet Keyboard
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I first learned the basics of playing the clarinet and played in school bands from 4th grade until middle school. When I was in 7th grade, a friend of mine let me try his saxophone and I found it was easier to express myself on that instrument, so I switched. While studying to become a music teacher, I realized that playing both instruments would help me the most in my career, so I began to practice the clarinet again as well.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Schedule two or three times during the week outside of the private lesson where you can practice without interruption. Make sure you have a practice area where you can keep your metronome, reeds, music stand, etc. in one place. Develop a warmup routine that is consistent and touches on all the areas of breathing, embouchure, posture, technical exercises, articulation, and so forth, before moving on to literature, tunes, or band music. Keep a practice log in which you note when you practice and what you practiced and for how long.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
It’s a good question, and I am going to touch on 3 things to consider before starting.
1. Can Your Child Focus For Short Periods Of Time On A Task?
If a bit of focused concentration is there, we can build on that attention span. At first we might be stringing together little tiny bites of concentration, with built in tasks in between. Over time we can stretch that out and your child will learn to focus and concentrate for longer periods of time.
As long as some concentration is happening you are on the right track for getting started.
2. Will Your Child Interact With Another Adult Who Is Giving Them Instructions?
For many students this is the first time they will work in a close one on one interaction with someone who is not a parent or relative. Depending on the child, this may be no big deal or may be something that you will need to work on before lessons start.
3. The Most Important Consideration For If Your Child Is Ready To Start Music Lessons Is:
Are You The Parent Ready To Undertake Music Lessons With Your Child?
Research shows that one of the biggest indicators of a child’s long term success in music is actually the parents long term commitment to music. I think it’s because we approach activities our children are “trying out” much differently than those we are committed to them doing long term. We put more time and emphasis on helping them form habits and stay disciplined about something we want them to still be doing years from now, for example.
Music lessons, and especially practicing with your child daily, takes a lot of time as a parent.
You will have a wonderful opportunity to bond with your child, understand how they learn, and help them to flourish and thrive. You will also need to find to make room in your family’s schedule to practice and perhaps sacrifice time for other things in order to practice daily with your child.
