Instruments: Piano
I began teaching piano when my mentor gave me several opportunities to teach her students and she guided me through the art of piano pedagogy. I began teaching independently after I attended community college in order to pursue a career in music. I encountered students with a variety of learning styles, which allowed me to discover how to be flexible with my teaching style in order to fit the student's needs. Read More

For beginning students who are children, I usually use the Alfred Music Piano Methods series, and include music theory and ear training as a part of the curriculum. Once students have grasped the fundamentals, I will introduce solo repertoire appropriate for receital performances to encourage and motivate their learning. For adult students, I love to spend time to figure out the students musical interests, and use the types of music they enjoy to guide my instruction so the lessons can be engaging and fun. Read More

In my teaching method, I am creating a custom plan for every single student. With beginner students, I am starting from the fundamentals and using books: Essential Elements, Suzuki Book 12, one and two octaves scales and etudes by Kreutzer, Wohlfahrt, and Mazas. For all of my students, I am always trying to find the repertoire that they would enjoy to practice. I encourage my students to share what style or particular piece they like and help them to find the right edition or arrangement and learn it. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practicing is what you make of it. Each time you do so clear your mind of all distractions so that way you can concentrate on the task at hand. Remember that practicing is not a chore or job. It's only how to want to perceive it. It can be like pulling teeth if your effort is lacking. It can be a walk in the park if your focus is correct. I for one didn't care for it when I first started. That being said, the older I got and more recitals/gigs I did, you bet I wanted to practice. Take your time, don't get frustrated, and have fun.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Piano is my primary. The love and passion I have for it knows no bounds. I started at age 5 because my brother was getting candy for lessons. As a child I wanted candy as well. As I got older being able to play last at recitals, gigs, church specials, weddings, I where I really and truly blossomed. The art and grace of the piano comes from within my heart and mind. I would never make another instrument my bread and butter. To me personally the piano speaks to the heart and soul more than any other music instrument.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Classical is my favorite to play. This is where ALL music genres have come from. Whether it is country, pop, rock, jazz, hip hop, etc. Music started with Mozart, Beethoven, Bach. Each piece or movement of a song tells us a story. Whether sad, happy, melancholy, joyful. It truly paints a picture of vivid colors and imagination. Tying all the elements together from strings to percussion, to woodwinds and brass. Each period in classical music differs from one another. This is why we have so many different genres in today's music.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I joined my school orchestra at 12 wanting to be an accompanist for them. Little did I know that I would take up violin and viola. I was absolutely terrible at both of them until I started to take lessons and incorporate what I was learning in piano to the other stringed instruments. My strive for greatness in all 3 was unimaginable. I wanted to be the best at them all. Each one gave me something different. The piano was my full orchestra on 88 keys, but the violin and viola where more personal because of how hard they are to play.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Music is extremely strong in my family. My brother and I are the most gifted/talented. We have done over 20 weddings and 100s of church services. He is a orchestra professor in a different state and plays 7 instruments including (his main) cello, electric and acoustic guitar and drums. You can just imagine the fun my parents had with my brother and I playing all the time. My mother took piano and guitar when she was young and my father was part of the school choir. Music is a cornerstone in my family.
