Master of Music Education University of Texas at Austin Bachelor of Applied Learning and Development with High Honors University of Texas at Austin
Overview:
I knew from an early age that I wanted to be a teacher. I have spent the last seventeen years working with children of all ages and sharing my love of music as a classroom music teacher and private piano teacher. I am passionate about connecting with the children I teach. I love watching them smile and grow up into such amazing human beings. I am also passionate about music. I enjoy listening to live music, performing music and dancing to music. It is a big part of my life. My husband and I have recently moved to Roswell from Texas, and I am looking forward to teaching new piano students.
EXPERIENCE
I have seventeen years of experience teaching piano. I teach musical expression through the instruction of sequential musical skills, varied repertoire, sight reading, ear-training, music theory and technique. My purpose is to help each student develop a love and appreciation of music. I hope that music will be an avenue of fulfillment and a source of joy that will last them a lifetime.
METHODS USED
I use up-to-date, traditional style method books that include: Lessons, Theory, Technique and Performance. I supplement this with solo sheet music and pieces that are of special interest to the students. I use computer software to help reinforce new theory skills.
LESSON STYLE
I conduct my beginner lessons with a spirit of play. I believe this engages the attention and energy of the student, promoting deeper learning. My students build self-esteem by mastering new skills. Skills are taught in a sequential way so all students can feel successful. I teach students how to practice so that each student learns how to accomplish their goals. Regular practice is an important part of piano lessons and advances musical understanding as well as muscle flexibility and control. Learning how to practice and persevere through unfamiliar situations helps students develop self-discipline. And it should be enjoyable! My goal is to guide students to a deeper love and appreciation of music. I believe piano lessons develop the joys of musical expression by building self-esteem and self-discipline. All ages are welcome to begin or continue their musical studies.
