I love helping students develop a passion for music! For this reason, I find it important that each student progresses at their own pace.

By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. Read More

I love teaching, and I firmly believe that almost anyone can be taught to do almost anything! I have music degrees from Hope College in Holland, Michigan, and USF in Tampa, Florida. After teaching at Hope for 6 years, I joined the Air Force to play with the world-class musicians that make up their bands. I spent 8 1/2 years in Colorado Springs stationed at Peterson AFB, and I loved it! I then moved to Illinois to be stationed at Scott AFB, playing with the USAF Band of Mid-America. Read More

I love seeing students grow as musicans.  There is no greater reward for a teacher then to see her students develop new skills, master technique, and become independent and educated young musicans.  As a teacher I feel that it is extremely important that all my students be able to read music.  My students not only read the notes, but read and understand symbols in their music.  Students learn music theory, rhythm reading, sight reading, and gain knowledge in the area of music history providing a comprehensive musical experience.  In my studio, we celebrate all accomplishments from completing homework, tackling a difficult piece, or finishing a lesson book.    Read More
