Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Trumpet Keyboard Electric Guitar
Nothing is more exciting than seeing one my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her 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. " The slower you go, the faster you'll get there" - John Link Read More
Instruments: Piano
My teaching style reflects how important it is to embrace every moment with a student as though they are my only student; taing into account each personality and ability. I can usually connect with an individual , assessing where to begin. A huge compliment to me, is when a past student enrolls their child/grandchild in lessons because of their prior experience with me. I am gentle, but teach self discipline, and all necessary fundamentals for their progress. Read More
Instruments: Piano
Everything about my teaching stems from a love of music and imparting that love into the students I am working with. Piano lessons should be about the student (at any level) forming a healthy relationship with the piano. As such, my mission is to create musicians that perform with Honesty and Clarity. Clarity forms all the "technical" aspects of making music at piano, while Honesty is about getting in touch with how we are personally developing as musicians and how we can be mentally present with the music we are creating--and not trying to be anyone else besides are true selves.

Instruments: Piano Voice
All children are different and are progressing at their own pace.Most important for me is to see that they enjoy making music at any level. Another important thing for me is to remind my students to practice with a good posture and poise.This will ensure that they look as a performers and enables them to practice and perform for much longer periods of time. I teach my students to be creative during their lessons and home practice,this makes practicing fun and study of music enjoyable and rewarding. Read More

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 Guitar Voice Violin
I do my best to tailor my style to each students specific needs and goals. In general, I am a very laidback and patient teacher. My students recieve clear and achievable goals at the end of each of their lessons to work on while they are practicing during the week. This enables students to be able to really see their own progress as the practice. I also believe in music lessons being an enjoyable experience for students so I include students in making the decision for what pieces they would like to learn. Read More

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
- Is your child interested in music? A lot of this will depend on the exposure and enjoyment they have had with the music in their lives up to this point.
- Can they pay attention for at least 5 minutes? Do note that their attention spans will increase as they continue to practice.
- Are they willing to commit to at least 30 minutes practice every day? Talk to them! Especially as they get older, you will want to do this.
- If they can already read, it will be easier, though I've had many students that have learned to read music first.
- Are You ready to work with them? All ages need at least some parent attention, the younger they are the more you will need to work directly with them, full time.
When will I start to see results?
This question can be very variable. The standard is 7 years to mastery. You should be prepared to stick it out. However, you should see a few things on the first day. Aside from that, a great deal depends on how much they practice and how Effectively they practice. If the practicing is sloppy or haphazard, without taking the time to check all the details first and then put it together using the method mentioned above for working a piece up, they may never fully work a given piece up.
Music is full of patterns. The students need to learn to see and hear them. Learning the music 1 step at a time allows this. Typically 2 to 8 months to be able to play very simple Christmas songs using standard notation, depending on age and practice habits.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
1 - Look the piece over, very well. Looking for patterns and the overall shape of the music. Check all basic details, such as: Clefs, Key Signature, Time Signature and any directions on how the music should be played.
2) Take it apart. Look for sticky spots that might give you trouble. Decide how you will handle it and then practice them.
3) All practice should include: Making sure that you know all the letters, Clapping and then Tapping the rhythms out, Playing hands alone first and Then hands together. Practice SLOWLY to start and then very gradually increase the tempo until you are at full speed. Also, start by practicing section by section. It's a much more efficient and effective way to learn.
