Instruments: Piano Voice Cello Music

I began teaching private voice when I was in college and also started to teach beginning piano and cello as I played piano for 10 years prior. I have always loved teaching as it is a chance for me to help students find their true voice through honing skills and proper technique allowing them to have healthy and lengthy careers in the industry if they so choose. I always meet you where you are, so if you are just beginning singing then we start with the basics to make sure you have a good core to start with, if you are more advanced I like to learn what you know so far so nothing seems repetitive for you and I then incorporate techniques that will help you move to the next level.

I typically use a combination of methods in the private lesson setting-method books, etude books, books for technique, solo repertoire, and pop/rock/jazz music and or charts for contemporary study.

For more advanced students, I will incorporate advanced methods such as etude books/orchestral excerpts along with repertoire geared more towards polishing for recital or performance. Read More

You only have more and more fun the more you play. Read More

My first music instruction job was at a summer day camp. I was 19. I taught group guitar lessons. I've been teaching private music lessons ever since. I, myself, had wonderful public school music teachers as well as private instruction in piano and voice. I teach my students what I was taught. No matter what kind of music the student wishes to learn, knowledge of music theory must be taught through the materials being studied. Read More

The technique that I've developed over the years is that while guiding the students through the singing process, I keep them focused on findingandconnectingwiththeir voices. Without a sense of "feeling what you're singing, it's difficult at best to connect with an audience. I produce annual showcases to give my students the opportunity to perform. Read More
