Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. Read More

I fell in love with teaching when I started college years ago and my students have achieved much success in the art world. I adore my students and I treat their voices with extreme care and provide a very positive and relaxed atmosphere to allow growth but get work done. I am dedicated to nurturing voices and serving art. My students are encouraged to audition for productions, perform in pageants and recitals, participate in master classes with elite artists and competitions, record, and explore many other opportunities that benefit their community.

With all of my students I am kind, patient, gentle, humorous, encouraging, and positive with my feedback. Students regularly give feedback on the music they are making, as well as any new ways they think I might be helpful to them. I use Howard Gardner's Multiple Intelligence Theory to help inform me of the students learning style. My goal is to nurture each students musical process. I support whatever pace students choose to employ, and tailor my instruction to their needs and wants. Read More

Each student is different. My teaching style depends on the need of the student. However, generally, I will start with technical exercises to help the student work on a particular skill that can be used in a variety of songs (ex. tone production, vowels, diction).

My method of teaching is very an easy one. I start off by teaching them the correct way to breath. I will also require them to do some breathing excerises.
