I have taught for 25 years and can teach any level on guitar and most levels on piano. I have taught thousands of people, many of them complete beginners who have become very accomplished musicians through years of lessons. I really enjoy helping high school jazz band students with their pieces. I help the students understand how to simplify their thinking on the songs to make it easier to play them. Read More

Instruments: Piano

Music and children are my two greatest passions and I love teaching them both! My musical training began at the age of 9 with piano lessons, and expanded in college to include percussion lessons and performances in several recitals, shows, and concerts. In 2007 I graduated with a Bachelor of Music in Education. In 2013 I began my own home business, offering music classes for babies to preschoolers and private piano lessons for beginner and intermediate players. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Keyboard

My life intention is to offer something meaningful to others, and teaching music is a central part of that. I moved to Denver to be the head of piano at CU Denver, and have now moved into nonprofit work, along with performing and teaching from my home studio. I focus on jazz and popular music, and teach all experience levels. I hold a recital date at the end of the "Fall" and "Spring" semester for my students with the opportunity to perform with a fantastic professional rhythm section! Read More

I generally choose to use Faber as a method book for all my beginning students, using the age appropriate track for each student ranging from too young to read yet to adult learners. I believe that both the lesson book and the theory books are highly important and necessary. Depending on the student and their wants and needs, other books for each level may be added. Once a basic comprehension of reading music and technique have been achieved, I like to branch out into other repertoire of whichever style or styles are most interesting to the student. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Voice

For my voice students, I generally do not use a method book since I believe each student will have different goals and different tastes in music. While I believe that classical training is beneficial to develop strong technique, I also know that we can help you to develop a solid technical foundation through all styles of singing including pop, jazz, musical theatre and folk. For your first lesson we will discuss your desires and goals, and from there I will provide sheet music, handouts, and other supplemental materials. Read More
