Music has always been my number 1 passion, and I have taught private music lessons since I was in high school.  Since graduating with my Master's degree in 2011, I have become a certified music teacher for grades K-12.  I modify all lessons depending on the student to best suite the students needs and prepare them for the maximum learning experience.  Read More

Instruments: Clarinet Acoustic Guitar

Most of my experiences teaching music has been with beginners or intermediate players. Initially, I find it so helpful to foster the student's prime interest in music- figuring out with them what it is that makes them play, or what will keep them playing when they don't even have a reason to. I love giving students things to listen to or watch and then having them show me the same thing. Read More

Instruments: Saxophone Flute Clarinet

I like to make music learning a self-engaged process. Students will keep track of their assignments, make some of the decisions about what music to play, and be expected to practice a minimum of 5 or 6 days per week. Students are sometimes reluctant to have discipline at first, but once they realize that they are making fast progress and overcoming musical challenges, they tend to have a great time. I have had parents of middle schoolers tell me that the structure music lessons have brought to their students' lives has made a huge difference in other areas. Read More

Instruments: Piano Trumpet Saxophone Flute Clarinet Music Keyboard

my experiences as a musician include performing in both classical and jazz groups in every venue imaginable. These performances include recital halls, banquet halls, school auditoriums, night clubs, bars, restaurants, weddings, parties, church ceremonies, community theater and parades. I encourage my students to practice like I practice and to perform as often as they can. I play classical music every day and I like for my students to study a classical piece because it helps them develop technique rapidly. Read More

Instruments: Clarinet

For beginning and intermediate students I like to teach out of the Rubank Method books. They have pieces that focus on one issue or another and are short enough to encourage students to simply become used to the idea of practicing every day. Once the student has some basic fundamentals it is always nice to work on a piece of repertoire. Again certain challeges are adressed and met through this as well, but the goal is also to have a chance to perform it, displaying a practical application to the student's accomplishments and hopefully encouraging the student to become further interested.
