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.

Instruments: Cello

For beginning students who are children, I typically start with Hal Leonard's Essential Elements and incorporate Position Pieces for Cello by Rick Mooney as they progress to higher levels of difficulty.

For adults, I try to find out what the student is interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and fun, no matter their ability level. Read More
