Instruments: Piano Voice Violin Cello Double Bass Keyboard
For my beginning piano students, I like to start with Alfreds performance books and music theory to help assist the note and music reading. My cello students that are still in the beginning stages I like to have using the Suzuki books to help work towards more advanced music and skills. My voice students are all very different so I shape our lesson methods based on what style of singing theyre interested in, but we always begin working on proper breathing and learning solfege.

Instruments: Piano Flute
After assessing a student's abilities and needs, I tailor their instruction according to what best fits their individual personalities and capabilities. I stress proper technique,beauty of tone, rhythmic accuracy, and expressive musicality. Understanding of music theory is intertwinedwith the musical experience. Playing in ensemble is encouraged: I play lots of duets with my students, accompany their solos on piano,and sometimes have them play with each other, such as in a flute choir. Read More
Instruments: Piano
As a navy wife and mother of two children, I have spent many years moving to places across the country and across two oceans. I found substitute teaching to be enormously fulfilling during this time of constant change; I discovered how much I enjoy working with children and helping them discover the joy of learning! Since finally settling down in San Diego, I have been focusing on sharing my love for music by teaching piano, after years of nurturing my own daughter's talent for violin and singing. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin
I usually beginwith warm-ups, scales, music theory, then continue with reviewing past homework, focusing on posture, rhythm, technique, etc. Lastly, we will sightread and preview the next pieces to be assigned for homework. Pace is set mostly by the student and how much they practice, but I will always nudge the student to improve in musicianship and posture after every lesson, with patience and perseverance. Read More
Instruments: Piano Organ
I have taught private students, music classes, small groups, and large classes. I teach people for their own enjoyment, or I can teach competitive students as well. I enjoy making house calss or teaching in my own studio. I have found that making a good plan and goals are very helpful to learning, and also making it clear what can be expected and how to practice. I try to make sure that we always find music that is enjoyable. Read More
Instruments: Piano
Times have changed since I began on the piano over fifty years ago. I believe the learning process should be engaging and fun and not the rote practice assignments I had to endure. I believe students should gain a limited orientation to the world of music to identify current artists, genres, and the structures of musical styles popular today. This is accomplished by introducing a play list for listening and learning. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
If you practice you will understand and move more quickly. Just like homework if you do you will understand. If you don't practice you are still learning, but it will take longer to achieve.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Can your child count and know 1-5? Are they able to understand 1-5? Do they know alphabet? They do not need to be able to read to teach, but should be able to handle and listening directions. They need to be able to sit still for about 20 minutes and listen. Online lesson a caregiver or parent is very helpful and it works wonderful. I have work books to help the child stay interested. With voice does the child love to sing? It will build up her confidence and her ability. I teach students that have been doing amazing in thatre arts and also in school because they take choir.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
Bastien love the chords
Alfred for little ones their way of teaching music is great for little ones. It is so much fun and builds confidence
Faber their creativity and able to teach children more concepts of dynamics.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
learning to be patient and discipline. It takes time to learn, but in every step learning a instrument is a great achievement. Every student can look back 6 months or a year and say I wasn't able to do this, but now I can. They need to look at their achievement Sometimes we busy and struggle or maybe even lose interest, but music is a life time gift. Sports are amazing, but most people won't be playing soccer in later life, but they can play an instrument their whole lives even a elderly lady 101 years old was playing so beautifully..
When will I start to see results?
you will see it right away. They will be playing small songs, but they are learning, coordination, reading music, value of music, fundamental music
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
mrs. cooper She was patient and creative.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
my parents chose the piano but so glad they did and i chose to take voice later
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I can write classical, children's musicals, contemporary music, and perform . I can also play for choirs and teach as a music director. I'm grateful for my parent's supporting me in lessons growing up.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
yes i had one child make the regional for voice in Las Vegas and she won.
I have had many students be main or lead characters in musicals.
I have had students go to college and get their music education in performance or education
I have had students play elite clubs because of their love for music
