Voice Lessons Reno County, NV

Instruments: Guitar, Voice, Trombone, Flute, Electric Guitar, Classical Guitar, Acoustic Guitar

I was a teacher in the public schools, and I wanted to be able to give more one-on-one attention to students. I wanted to be able to teach in a way that uplifts students and makes them excited about music. I also wanted to be able to make students feel comfortable and have fun. I have a degree from Vandercook College of Music in Music Education. I like to teach using the Vandercook method and give students a strong foundation on their instrument. I am in the process of getting set up to teach online lessons! Read More

Instruments: Piano, Voice

I approach teaching on a person to person level by getting to know and understand what is required of me. I create a program exclusively for each student that fits their comfort zone. I enjoy doing the videos they make for me to critique. So with the use of video sharing there is documentation so the student can refer back to them in the future. Teaching online is different than teaching person to person. Read More

My earliest teaching experience began in high school while teaching several middle school groups for the local zone concerts. I have taught several lesson plans in the Washoe County School district and successfully completed a 14 week internship teaching orchestra at Depoali MS and McQueen HS. I have been a counselor at Lake Tahoe Music Camp for two years now and plan to complete my third and final year this summer. Read More

Instruments: Guitar, Voice, Acoustic Guitar

For voice, I like to start with making sure the placement is good and that the tone begin produced is nice and full. After that working on moving smoothly though notes while keeping the voice aligned, handling vowels and consonants, and gradually extending range. Repertoire is used to help support the lessons and gradually increases with the ability of the student. For guitar, in either the styles that use a flatpick or the finger-styles, I like to build a library of chords and progressions linked to an understanding of keys and scales (music theory).

Instruments: Voice

As a coach and motivator, my methods are rooted in ultimate self-reliance. The singer on stage stands alone, without their coach at their side. Many of my current and former students tour nationally and globally and have the skills and character to manage their own day to day careers. "Give a Diva a fish and she feasts for a day. Teach a Diva to fish and she feasts for a lifetime." Read More
