Instruments: Violin, Cello, Flute

My approach to teaching varies with the age level of each student. With younger students, imitation is often one of the best methods of learning and I prefer the Suzuki method for students up to age 8, especially with strings. For older children and adults, learning music notation and basic music theory for a full understanding of musical language are more important to get them to the level where they can learn any music that they want to play for fun.

Instruments: Piano, Violin, Cello, Viola, Double Bass, Music

I use the Belwin Mills and String Builder books, also Klengel Technical Studies as well as Harvey S Whistler Position Books. Selected repertoire as the student advances. For beginning adults I try to determine exactly what they are wanting to achieve by starting an instrument at this point in life. For the beginner I determine what kind of talent they have and how to proceed with lessons. Learning an instrument is hard - and practice time at home is essential and must be consistent to progress.

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.
