Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, its important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments help fuel the students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs! Read More

I was a kindergarten teacher after graduating from college. I have always been a person who loves to learn....but in return I love teaching just as much! As I got more serious with music I started writing and performing. Read More
Instruments: Piano Flute Recorder Music Keyboard
I have been teaching private music lesson for 5 years and have several loyal and dedicated students. My students participate in two performances each year, which I arrange. Our last recital was focused on the student's performing their own compositions that we wrote together in our lessons. Students should be able to play the music they enjoy, but are also encouraged to expland their horizons to new and different genres. I believe music lessons should be enjoyable experiences that the student looks forward to each week. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Always have a pencil and don't be afraid to mark up your music! It doesn't make you dumb if you have to remind yourself that a certain note is flat or sharp. If you need to write in the counting - go for it! - it will only mean less mistakes being ingrained in your muscle memory. Especially at the piano - write in any finger number you need! Experiment and don't mind erasing previous work if you later come across a better way to finger a passage...but write what you have in the moment down so you don't forget. Marking up the music not only saves loads of time by not having to repeat certain steps in the learning process, but it also helps your brain solidify positive connections!
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
Rhapsody in Blue with the orchestral accompaniment. I heard it for the first time in Fantasia 2000 when I was little and fell in love with it back then. Once I was in high school I came across the piece again and bought the music. Then in college I made sure as many of my theory assignments or history assignments could focus on that piece. I have always loved jazz, but have kept mostly to the classical world in my practice. Rhapsody in Blue invokes an emotion that is so relatable - which is sometimes difficult for me to do with classical music.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
1. warm-up for about 20 minutes (long-tones, scales (all modes), arpeggios, thirds, tonguing rhythms) with a tuner (for flute) with a metronome (for flute and piano).
2. Sight-read (I try to rotate between easy - intermediate - advanced) 5 min
3. Wood-shed (find the hardest passages I'm working on practice slowly, fix bugs, experiment, google info on the piece to see if there are any suggestions, listen to recordings, sing them) the 2-3 hardest passages in my repertoire. 45-60 minutes
4. Context practice: play longer sections of passages I had worked on in my last practice session. 30 min
Note: this level of detail and continuity requires me to mark up my scores and keep a journal (on my phone) so I know what I've practice when. I also don't do this all in one sitting. Sometimes I do, but more often than not I warm-up and sightread then take a break - maybe practice piano or read, or clean, etc.) then do the wood-shed practice and take another break before going into context practice. If I'm crunched for time I warm-up and do as much wood-shedding as I can.
