Voice Lessons Maricopa County, AZ

Instruments: Voice, Recorder

I tailor my lessons to each student's individual needs and desires. I believe that music should be fun and rewarding, and strive to keep my lessons interesting and engaging. I enjoy getting to know each student and love to hear from them what they want from lessons and the types of music they like. My personal training has been primarily focused in classical music, but as each student comes with their desires, my personal approach is to teach a healthy foundation and technique and guide them in the direction to become the best they can be in the area they desire.

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

I have been teaching music since 1984, from private piano lessons for people of all ages to coaching voice and teaching beginning violin to college classes in piano and music theory.

I am currently in the teaching certificate program for Elementary Education through Rio Salado College. Read More

Instruments: Guitar, Voice, Trumpet, Bass Guitar

For all students, I teach them exercises to strenghten their fundamentals and skills in the given instrument, and each lesson we practice the exercises to focus on improving their sound production, pitch finding, placement, and more.  We also learn songs that both the student and I choose and prepare for performance (when necessary).  Here are the books I work from for each instrument, but please note that I don't necessarily use these for every student, only when appropriate: GUITAR:  Mel Bay's Modern Guitar Method (books 1 through 3) VOICE:  Master Vocal Exercises by Horatio Connell, and Sightsinging (Hal Leonard) BASS GUITAR:  Bass Method, (Hal Leonard, books 1 through 3) TRUMPET:  Essential Elements 2000, (Hal Leonard, books 1 through 3) Read More
