I usually see what level the student is on and we go from there. The age and interest of the students will also tell me which way to go in the lesson.

If the students are just interested in one specific thing then we focus on that. Read More

My teaching style is personalized, goal-oriented, but also fun focused. I take a personalized approach, focusing on understanding each student's unique vocal goals, strengths, and areas for improvement. By setting large, medium, and small SMART goals, I ensure that progress is tangible and attainable, helping students build confidence in their vocal abilities. I also believe in making the lessons feel fun and be gratifying in the process of hitting smaller goals and Student Learning Outcomes, as the student also works towards more long term goals.

Most schools use the Hal Leonard Essential Elements and I tend to focus on this method as supplemental instruction but other methods are fine as well especially if the student is already working through a particular method book.

Adult students are welcome to tailor their lessons to their musical goals whether that's learning Bach or Breaking Benjamin! Read More
