I have been teaching private lessons for five years now to students aged 8-18. I have also taught general music classes to 3 month-two year olds in an early childhood music class. My students have excelled through solos, ensembles, festivals, etc. I believe in consistency of instruction and positive reinforcement and criticism. I best serve my students by being adaptable to all of their needs. I am currently working with a student that has william's syndrome and we have a blast together. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
Being a teacher is by far one of the most rewarding choices that I have ever made. Seeing a students growth and development is absolutely astounding. I believe that each student is very individualized, and no student learns exactly the same as another. As a teacher, I believe that I need to constantly be adaptable and adjustable to each student's needs. I also want the student to enjoy the learning process; it is important that the student knows that he or she is making achievements and enjoys the rewards of his or her hard work. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Cello Viola Fiddle Music Keyboard
I firmly believe that students are best served when their teacher knows and cares about them. This attitude toward teaching helps me to tailor instruction to students' needs rather than following a prescriptive method. I usually begin lessons with a brief, informal conversation where we discuss the student's week and talk about things that are important to them. A strong and appropriate student-teacher relationship is the bedrock for successful goal-setting, accountability, and, of course, fun in private lessons! Read More

While I'm very new at teaching music, I have many years of experience in teaching in general. I've been pretty successful as a private math tutor since 2009, and more recently I've also been tutoring in ACT prep, SAT, prep, and C++. I'm very glad to be transitioning to music, since that is a topic I'm very passionate about. I love so many things about teaching, and I can't wait to see how they transfer to music lessons.

Instruments: Piano
For very young beginning students, I typically start with Faber Piano Adventures, and for older beginners, the Faber Accelerated Piano Adventures or Hal Leonard Adult Learner Series. Once the student has shown an understanding of basic theory and technique, classical repertoire will be introduced, along with level appropriate arrangements of the student's choice music. It's important that the student is taught how to practice a piece effectively to continue growing musically in between lessons, so that lessons can be used to find areas for improvement, and to learn new concepts and material.

I began teaching as a teenager when I was in Ann Arbor's psychedelic rock band SPROTON LAYER. I have taught friends and family off and on for many years. During the economic crash in 2009, I took a course on Teaching to understand different age groups and varied approaches in learning. Since then, I have taught steadily and found it very rewarding. One of the hardest things to get across to the Student is that the single most important thing to do is Play. Read More

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Well, my story is a little different. My church wanted a pianist so they sent me to lessons. I began lessons a little late in the 7th grade at age 10. Once I started music lessons I loved music so much that I practiced every chance I got even during break and lunch times which contributed to my advancement in music. I started with a wonderful teacher who was warm, friendly and like a mother. She made everyone feel like they were part of a big family and she did it very naturally. Her family was a musical family so it came natural for her to cultivate the love and passion for music in her students.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
In 2016, I was chosen to be the Principal Accompanist for the World Premiere Grady-Rayam Gala of the Negro Spiritual Scholarship Foundation. This opportunity allowed me to perform with world-class opera Singer Stephanie Washington.
In April 2017, I traveled to Nashville Tennessee, to compete in the James A. Hefner HBCU Piano Competition at Tennessee State University. I won the top two prizes of the competition. The first prize was 500 dollars for best overall performance and the second was 250 dollars for the best performance of a piece played by an African American composer. You can find a performance of the piece on my profile and here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-ydW8BgSVA
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Well, virtuosity is hardest thing to master on the instrument. Virtuosity covers mastery of the instrument in all ways both technically and musically. Obtaining control, finger strength and dexterity, mastery of tension release, mastery of physical gestures, mastery of genres/styles, mastery of energized and active fingers and knuckles, mastery of finger placement/lower-upper arm movement, mastery of musical depth and understanding, interpretation, mastery of technique and practicing effectively are all contributors to obtaining virtuosity which in my opinion, is the hardest thing to master on the instrument.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard, Faber, John Thompson are method books that I use within my lessons because I believe they best represent the quality of music instruction I like my students to experience. More importantly, I used several of the method books in my own musical upbringing which helped to cultivate me into the pianist I am today. Also, an important feature of these method books is that they provide gradual, step by step instruction which lessons, especially for beginner should follow.
