Instruments: Piano Keyboard
I was 4 years old when I found my passion for playing the piano. I was taught classically through MacPhail Center For Music and attended examinations yearly through The Royal Conservatory of Music. As I grew older, I taught friends and neighborhood kids how to play the piano and found a passion for teaching and watching people learn. I currently play the keyboard in a local band and do shows throughout the Twin Cities. Read More
Instruments: Piano Flute Piccolo
I have been playing the flute for over 25 years and have been in teaching/a therapist for at least 18 years. I approach each individual music session with a student centered focus and try to make that student successful in thier own individual way. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Viola Fiddle Keyboard
My musical life has been extraordinary. Born in Mpls. MN, I attended the Aspen Musical Festival before my departure to Vienna Austria for Master studies in Violin/viola and piano. Scholarship intended for one year ended up a 25 year tenure, teaching, performing in Vienna and raising a family. I returned to the US to become executive director of a music school in MN. I was able to start new after school music programs for elementary schools throughout the district, start an orchestra program and open a theater program for kids. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin Cello
Cello is my main instrument, but I have also been teaching piano, guitar, and violin for years. I love teaching and the variety of finding the approach that works best for each individual student. On a personal note, I was married in 2010 and had my first child, a boy, a year later. I live in Northfield but commute up to the Eden Prairie/Chanhassen area for lessons every Monday. I am also open to giving lessons at people's homes who are close to Highway 35 on the way to or from the Cities. Read More
Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet Drums Euphonium Mallet Percussion
I do expect regular practice outside of lessons; I do not want lessons to simply be a guided practice session. Ideally, students would fully prepare the assigned material for each lesson-- not that it needs to be perfect, but that I can tell that he or she has been working on it. For students who are clearly putting in a reasonable amount of effort, I reward them by writing out melodies of their favorite pop songs for them to learn to play. Read More
Instruments: Piano
My teaching experience began 10 years ago when I had the opportunity to teach group piano classes at a local elementary school. My first piano pedagogy classes were at the Cleveland Institute of Music in 2005-2006, and I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity for practice teaching not only at the Cleveland Institute of Music but also at the MacPhail Center for the Arts in Minneapolis, MN. I taught 20 weekly students during my time at the University of Illinois and upon moving back to Minneapolis, MN, began teaching for Schmitt Music locations as well as agencies that give in-home lessons.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
When we sing, there are many muscles are working together. However, the problem is that the muscles are not shown by our eyes because those are in our bodies. Furthermore, the muscles are totally different depending on people. So, knowing their own instrument (body and voice) is the hardest thing. Second, the voice is in our body. So, the voice can be changed according to their condition. To maintain steady voice, I think singers need to practice a lots. I think repeated practice is only way to remember their voice perfectly.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
When I had a private lesson at Texas, my student awarded second place for a vocal competition. When I started to teach him he has a bad habit for signing while he has a great voice. So, I tried to fix his bad habit. His bad habit was stuffy sound which causes artificial voice. For this reason, he tended to push his voice a lot. To fix this problem, I made an effort to let him know his natural voice. Of course, he felt it was really weird and stranger. After fixing this bad habit, he was able to improve his voice quickly. When he found his voice and sing with natural voice he won the competition.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Ironically, my goal was being a math teacher because I was really good at math and science. However, my goal was changed when I was high school student. My parents are strong christians. So, I naturally went to church with my parents. In the church, I liked to play a guitar and a drum. I was able to sing in church choir many times. Through the experience, I recognized that I like to sing a lots and my voice is different from others. Also, the choir conductor encouraged me to study voice many times. With his courage, I could decide to study voice.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Music field is really competitive. I have worked at Opera North last summer for two months. When I got young artist program at Opera North, I was really honored because it was really competitive to get it. There were over 600 applicants who applied that program. However, only 16 singers could join the program. Through the program, I could improve my musicality and had good opportunity to sing on the stage. Second, I often sing at church offering or special service. After singing, when people told me your singing made me touched and comfort I feel really happy and proud of me.
