Piano Lessons Southwest

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Violin, Cello, Viola, French Horn

I work closely with both student and parent to create obtainable goals that students can focus on so they can see their progression throughout each lesson. I find out what inspires them and tailor each lesson to their wants and needs. Reaching their goals is so important because it keeps them motivated and engaged in their lesson and also makes them develop pride in their achievements once they reach their goals. Read More

My teaching philosophy is theory first which means the basics must be mastered. Once the basics are mastered then the student can easily move forward with a greater success rate at mastering their craft and discipline. My methods of teaching are based on the individual student. Each student is given all tools needed to accomplish their personal goals. Additionally each student is given the opportunity to give constant feedback on their level of progress and suggestions on how to enhance their learning experience. Read More

My lessons are very structured and fun. I incorporate games, visual aids, physical application, and live demonstrations to help appeal to the different styles. I do expect a high level of commitment from students while still being understanding that life doesnt always allow us to practice hours and hours a day. Since I do provide a lot of information within each lesson, I add a 5 minute break (if needed) to help clear the mind or just rest the eyes/arms since staring at music for a long period of time or holding up an instrument for a long period of time can be quite taxing.

I began teaching private lessons during my summers off from college, just a few students at a time.  Since beginning my teaching career, my focus has shifted slightly to group piano classes, while still teaching privately after school.  I have been a student of private instruction since the age of three, and my experiences in my private lessons have shaped the way I structure my own lessons for students.  I firmly believe that my students need to not only study solo repertoire, but also that they spend some time every week focusing on technical exercises to solidify their musical foundation.

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing my students succeed in whatever they are passionate about. Whether that be making their Broadway Debut or learning to love music as much as I do. I encourage my students to set realistic goals for themselves at each lesson. I like to make each lesson fun but productive. I like to find commonalities in what I am teaching to their everyday life. With my years of experience both on the stage and off, I know I can give you or your child the very best training one has to offer! Read More
