Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin
I am a fun loving and patient instructor who enjoys seeing my passion for music spread to different people. In 2012 I earned a Bachelors in Psychology with a minor in music from Northern Arizona University, and went on to complete a Masters degree in Music Therapy from Arizona State University. I have experience performing in academic orchestras, choirs, and guitar ensembles, as well as with song writing and performing in local bands. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Music Keyboard
I structure my lessons so that each student knows exactly what to expect each week. We begin with Warmups, Scales, Technique, Sight-reading in piano and/or voice. Then we move onto the literature, checking posture for both Voice and Piano. We recap, at the end of each lesson, so that any questions may be answered. We set goals for rehearsals, memorization, study requirements. I record vocal exercises, or accompaniment tracks for the student so that they are able to practice more efficiently. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone Flute Clarinet
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. Read More
Instruments: Voice
I have been teaching private voice lessons for the past three years. I started teaching during my Professional Studies diploma at Cleveland Institute of Music. I have taught students of all ages from young to old, and beginner to advanced. My students are encouraged to participate in competitions and recitals. I am always loking to bring in new students of all ages! I myself has performed in Europe as well as all over the United States so I hope to bring my knowledge from all my life experiences into the studio. Read More

Whether you want to learn to play recreationally or more seriously, I want to help you connect with the music you perform and your instrument. I believe that music is a way for people to express themselves on a deep, energetic level; that it is Life expressing through us as well, and that it is an essential part of Life itself. My goal is to help each student not only learn the mechanics and fundamentals of their instrument, but to also be INSPIRED by the music they're making and sometimes creating. Read More

My teaching experience dates back to my Poland days, as I began teaching private lessons as a student of Music Academy of Wroclaw. When arrived to USA, I had my private studio in Chicago, where I lived for ten years. When I moved to Arizona, I continued to do what I love. I can teach students of any age.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxcxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxcccxxxcxcxcxxxxccccccccxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
My goal for the initial meeting with a student is to know what their joy and passion is with music. What is their creative spark? Why do they want to learn to play piano? I then evaluate their listening skills, rhythm skills, hand and eye coordination, motor abilities, and improvisational skills. I ask them to share what style of music they enjoy listening to and if they are open to creating their own song. Read More
Instruments: Voice Recorder
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
It was mostly a gradual decision, however at one point in my teenage years I was determined to not study music in college! I wanted it to stay a hobby, but my love for it won and I ended up studying music and never regretted it.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Yes! My Grandmother was a singer, organist, pianist, voice teacher and choral director. She loved to do it all! She was my first teacher and inspired my love of music. My father and his siblings all sing, though not professionally, and my mother sings and was two rock bands in the 1990s.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
My second is piano. I began lessons at a young age, but was never very dedicated. In college it became a necessity to learn and I wished I have done more as a child! I have since fallen in love with piano and continue to practice regularly. I consider the recorder my third instrument and although I played it in third grade enough to annoy my dogs, cats, and parents, I picked up a method book later in life and found the fun of playing more complex pieces and looking into Baroque literature.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I begin with a thorough warm up, usually lasting for 30-45 minutes. I then choose one of my easier, more polished pieces and sing through it before continuing on to new and more difficult literature. I am a believer in warm ups and vocal health, so I try not to push my voice beyond what it is ready for at the time, taking my warm ups slow and thoroughly.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have a B.S. in Music Performance and a Master of Music Performance. Initially I began in Music Education, however I found my love of working one-on-one with students, or in small groups, and the performance track was more suited to teaching studio lessons. I also love performing and the opportunities the degrees held for polishing skills in languages, vocal repertoire, and performing in general.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I have always loved Strauss's "Four Last Songs" for their beautiful melodic lines, rich accompaniment, and deep subject matter. My personal favorite performer of this work is Dame Kiri Te Kanawa.
When will I start to see results?
Results come with regular lessons and practice. Lessons are only as effective as a student is willing to put in time to practice. Children tend to learn fast, adults tend to have more established habits, however there is no set amount of time it takes to see results. It depends on the individual person. Results will never happen overnight, much as we would all love!
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I think it chose me, rather than me choosing it. I could sing from a young age and it was a huge part of my life as a child and teenager. It seemed natural to continue studying and ultimately make it my career.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Patience! Music takes time and dedication, and unfortunately there is no magic wand to make it happen instantly. I personally have to remind myself to slow down and concentrate on difficult sections of the music instead of just whizzing through it and saying, "good enough."
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Always warm up sufficiently and take breaks to stretch, take a short walk (even just around the house), re-warm up, drink water, or whatever you feel your needs are.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
The first sign is an expressed interest in music! It's always a more positive experience for student, parent, and teacher if the child wants to be there. For success in lessons, it is important that a child be able to listen and comprehend basic instructions.
