Music Lessons in Academy Estates, NM

Instruments: Piano Voice Music

Whenever I meet with someone, I feel it's always best to get to know them and ask them "why music?". From there it sparks a conversation, and we start setting goals - which is super important! This is how we check in with ourselves along the way to make sure that the student is getting the most out of their lessons. I will also ask them questions about their practice regimen (if they already have one) and come up with improvements to help them practice more efficiently. Read More

Depending on the instrument that the student studies and how old they are is how approach teaching them. For example, my voice studentsalways start out learning the same techniques and warm-ups, but where we go from there is based on the age of the voice and how a person wants to learn. With Guitar and Piano I may use a book as a supplement to my teaching, but not as the focal point of my teaching because every learns differently andare ina different place in their journey.

Seeing my students develop a passion for music is very rewarding! Every student is an individual and moves at their own pace, I work to asses the areas that I feel the student needs to focus on, and keep a positive, encouraging approach to working through the challenges that playing the piano presents. With both younger and adult students, I give feedback on the pieces by writing notes in a notebook, and or the music itself. Read More

I first started teaching guitar in high school after i got a few lessons from someone i looked up to in high school. From then on i have loved to teach music to all ages!.

My approach to teaching is rooted in the belief that every student has the potential to learn and grow, and it is my job as a teacher to help them reach their full potential. I strive to create a safe and supportive learning environment where students feel comfortable taking risks and exploring new ideas. I believe in using a variety of teaching strategies, such as hands-on activities, group work, and individual instruction, to engage students in meaningful learning experiences. Read More

Instruments: Voice Latin Percussion Music

I facilitated individual an group musical collaborations, and helped train people to do the same via workshops I facilitated at conferences. I have also led community singalongs, and taught individual students vocals and percussion over this time. I'm a big believer that everyone can sing and everyone can drum, and that music is a gift inherent to being human that we all can share and rejoice in. I encourage students to become comfortable with vocal and rhythmic musical expression, and teach tools and techniques and exercises that can help develop their skills and craft. Read More
