Music Lessons Southwest

Instruments: Guitar, Bass Guitar, Music, Electric Guitar, Classical Guitar, Acoustic Guitar

Each student gets a personalized lesson plan built around their musical preferences and playing style. I view our lessons as a collaboration rather than a lecture. Tell me where you would like to end up and I will assemble an action plan to get you there. Do you just want to strum some simple songs or learn music theory and how to improvise? Would you like to write your own songs or just play other people's music note for note? Read More

Instruments: Piano, Cello, Music, Keyboard

Depending on my student's age and skill level I usually have them begin with Suzuki books, Essential Elements books, or a combination of the two. As students advance I often incorporate etudes and/or exercises by Lee, Dotzauer, Galamian, Mooney, Sevcik, Duport, and Popper. While ear training is an essential skill that I teach to all of my students, the younger a student is the more I'll have them "play by ear" instead of reading sheet music. Read More

I have known I have wanted to be a music teacher since I was 14. I had many great mentors through music and I hope I can provide the same for my students! Each student is different and I love expanding my own teaching skills with students to find a way for them to learn. Read More

I have been a musician my whole life and I understand the structure that music takes but I also understand the freedom that needs to come with this amazing gift.

No matter what route or what style you want to play, music is beautiful all around. Read More

I am a Music Therapist that also has a passion for teaching the piano. Learning to play the piano as a child was so beneficial mentally and emotionally, and it created a positive outlet for me during all seasons of life. I continued my studies at Arizona State University under the instruction of world-renown pianist Walter Cosand. During my time in college, I played professionally with my brother and we recorded 2 albums together. Read More
