Instruments: Trombone
Teaching has always been a passion of mine! In 2019, I graduated from University of Central Arkansas with my Bachelor of Music Education. From there, I earned a Graduate Certificate in Trombone Performance from the University of Central Arkansas in 2020. Finally in May 2023, I earned my Master of Music in Trombone Performance with a secondary area in Music Education. I have experiences teaching in several settings: elementary classes, middle school classes, and private lessons from 6th grade all the way up to college students. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I am from a family of musicians and started my music lessons at a young age. I love playing the piano and have accompanied choirs, vocalists, bands, churches, etc. throughout my life. Other than the priceless enjoyment I have gotten out of being able to play the piano, my greatest pleasure has been teaching young and old how to play, appreciate and enjoy the piano instrument. Seeing the students at the recital, the pride and accomplishment when they showcase what their hard work has accomplished is an absolute great joy! Read More
Instruments: Guitar Trombone Drums Orchestral Percussion Djembe
I have a lifelong passion for music, with my passion being in drumming and percussion but having a great deal of experience in trombone and a strong knowledge of guitar as well. I graduated from Wesleyan University in 2008 with Honors in Music. I have just recently traveled to Ghana for a 10-month trip to study traditional drumming, Afrobeat drum set style, and more. I also traveled to Ghana in the summers of 2007 and 2008 on grants through Wesleyan allowing me to study traditional drumming more in depth from master drummers there. Read More
Instruments: Flute
As a teacher I feel like a travel agent, guiding students on their own "flute journey." I have taught children, high school students, pre-college division music majors, college students and adult amateurs - students who have played in school and community orchestras, churches and for their own personal enjoyment. I use the Blocki flute method for beginners. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar Synthesizer Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I began teaching when I was 17 after I made friends who were younger through the mariachi summer camp. I taught music theory and the overall style of how to learn and build chords based on key signatures. Being able to show these kids so much about their instrument made me want to some day become a good tutor for someone else in need of lessons that are straight forward and to the point without having to worry about a tutor that's hard to work with.

Instruments: Piano Acoustic Guitar
I have been teaching music lessons as a music therapist since 2007 and have much experience with adapted lessons for students with developmental disabilities and other limitations. I started teaching typical lessons in addition to adapted lessons in 2013 and it has been an added joy for me. I love teaching basic music lessons and music theory to children developing strong musical roots. I encourage a regular practice schedule for all of my students to help develop strong habits and engraving music in each of their lives. Read More
Instruments: Flute Piccolo
As a flute player, where would we be without the teachings of Trevor Wye, Marcel Moyse, Paul Taffanel and Philippe Gaubert? Of course, I will start by determining where they are at, a test, so to say. For the beginners, I like to start with the Trevor Wye beginners books. As they grow more advanced, we will look at separate books such as the 24 melodic studies by Moyse and intermediate books that are also by Wye. Read More
Instruments: Drums Music
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I had many teachers who inspired me over the years.
I started taking lessons in school in the 4th grade and started private lessons in the 5th grade.
My first private drum teacher had a huge impact on me. He was a cool guy and I looked up him. He was knowledgeable and extremely patient. His ability to teach kept me engaged and excited. I was learning something new during every lesson.
I'll never forget him.
In my late teens, I studied with the late, great Charles (Charlie) Perry, renowned big band drummer and the author of many seminal, instructional drum books. I was in awe of him. He was a straight shooter and provided honest criticism and guidance that has lasted a lifetime.
When will I start to see results?
I make sure we see progress every day. From Day 1, students progress because they are learning something new every time we meet. Playing an instrument is just like learning another language. You start out learning to read and write letters, then they move on to words, then to sentences, then to paragraphs. Similarly, learning to play music progresses using the same formula.
But it takes a dedicated student to practice what is being taught. The more time a student dedicates to learning and practicing their instrument, the quicker they will see results.
This means practicing everyday. Taking private lessons at least once a week with an instructor is also a key ingredient. Be sure to schedule "make up" lessons if one is missed. It's important to keep the momentum going. Students must be committed to their musicianship and to their instrument.
But realize that nothing happens overnight. It takes patience, perseverance, and dedication to see results. The key ingredient is to work with a private instructor who can teach them correctly. The rest will come naturally.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
There are many things to consider.
Is your child musically inclined?
Is your child always tapping their feet and hands while listening to music?
Can you, as a parent/guardian, sense they have a feel for music or is it just nervous energy?
Do they dream or talk about about playing an instrument, in particular playing the drums and being a drummer?
Do they idolize a particular band or drummer?
Is your child interested in Band or Orchestra in school?
Are they currently taking lessons in school?
Speak to your child. Ask them if they're ready?
Ask yourself, as their parent or guardian, if you're ready to support a drummer in the household. Noise is a factor and that needs to be considered.
Does your child have a disability? Physical or emotional? Sometimes a disabled child can use drums as part of their therapy. Children with emotional and behavioral conditions can be tempered with drum lessons. Check with their primary doctor, specialist, or caregiver to see if taking up the drums make sense.
Lastly, never force anything on a child unless it's obvious they have a proclivity towards something. This goes for the drums, as well.
