Voice Lessons in Clearwater Beach, FL

Instruments: Piano Voice Trumpet Trombone Synthesizer Keyboard

For beginning level students of any age, I will begin lessons by going over basic fundamentals of sheet music reading (notation, connecting the instrument to the literature) and music theory that will aid them in accomplishing homework tasks independently. For experienced students, I will ask the student to demonstrate knowledge and playing to their best ability to obtain a better understanding of where to continue their studies. I will also ask all students what kind of music they are already studying and what else they would like to pick up from there (studying classical contemporary for school band with an interest in starting jazz music, etc.) I will always consider the students age and playing level to appropriately create lesson plans that will ensure growth over time.

I have more than 15 years of experience in music that I would love to keep sharing it. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice

Technique is certainly at the centerpiece of my teaching, for both voice and piano. You are your instrument, and training your body to produce music easily and efficiently is the primary goal. But I by no means think Classical music is the only genre of music a student should study. Both my voice and piano students are pushed to explore their musical boundaries, and learn how to play and sing a large variety of styles, from rock, to pop, jazz, and theatre. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice Ukulele Recorder Keyboard

As early as I can recall, Ive loved teaching. Whether that meant being a teachers assistant or elementary school aide in my younger years, or as a music educator throughout and post-college. In high school, I was a Dance Captain for my schools competitive show choir, and would compose, arrange, and choreograph. While in college, I went to several music educators conferences, and was an active member of both the NAfME and IMEA (Indiana Music Educators Association.) I tutored my fellow music students at this time as well, and got my first private music instructor position following graduation, which was an absolute joy! Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Bass Guitar Double Bass

For beginners I like to start with using John W. Schaum's Music book as well as helping them to learn basic music theory in order to be able to keep time and know how to read music.  I help them to know their music scales so that they know them by heart when playing music.   I also inspire my students to join recitals in school as well as encourage them to practice daily as well as play with others.

Instruments: Piano Voice Violin Viola Flute Piccolo

For beginning students, I like to start from Essential elements, Suzuki 1, or Piano Adventures. Students will also likely have a theory workbook or worksheets that match the level of their current repertoire. Intermediate students, we will start using a program called smart music that plays the accompaniment for pieces that we are working on. This will really help develop a great internal sense of rhythm and help students recognize immediately when something needs correcting. Read More

Instruments: Voice

I teach healthy vocal technique in any genre at every level. If you can produce sound, I can teach you how to sing. In addition to singing seriously for 15+ years and taking private voice lessons since the age of 12, in 2018 I graduated from The University of North Carolina at Greensboro with a Masters of Music in Vocal Performance, and in 2016 I graduated from Rollins College with a Bachelor of Arts in Music with a Vocal Performance emphasis.
