Music Lessons in Civic Center, CO

Instruments: Flute

I love helping students succeed, and for them to feel a sense of accomplishment as well as having a good time while playing the flute.  I try to make every lesson something exciting to look forward to, leaving them wanting to practice before every lesson, whether it be learning a new piece, improvisations, singing, or any new activities to mix it up.  I consider myself as a guide, and not someone that pushes or dictates students.

I have performed all over the country, and my musical arrangements, compositions, and marching drill design have been performed all over the world. Music has been my life for almost 20 years, and I wouldn't trade any of my experiences in performance for anything in this world!

It is important to me that each student learns at their own pace when I teach. I dont want to force things upon students that they arent ready for, or dont want to do. Because of this, most of my curriculum is based around music of the students choosing, so they keep engaged and wanting to keep learning. Through this, I will teach the theory aspect of the music they are learning to help give a better understanding of why things work the way that they do, and the why the way they sound that way.

Instruments: Trumpet

As a music educator, my teaching style extends far beyond the technical mastery of the instrument. While I believe that strong fundamentals are crucial, I also place great emphasis on nurturing the creativity, individuality, and personal growth of each student. Music is a deeply personal and expressive art form, and my goal is to not only help students develop as skilled musicians but also to encourage them to embrace their own unique voice as performers and human beings.
