I have started teaching private lessons since high school through the Suzuki Method, and into my college and graduate school years. I have taken classes on pedagogy and teaching artistry in creative ways, such as teaching students to do improvisations and asking questions in order to get them engaged in the learning process. I have played classical, jazz, pop, and latin music, and can teach an array of different genres. Read More

Instruments: Piano
As I experienced different teachers, I learned that I do my best when I enjoy my lesson. To make this happen, it's the teacher's job to make the lesson more fun and comfortable for students. Since I was not always the best student for my teachers (I know, I know... I used to hate doing practices on pieces I didn't like!), I know how students think and am more than willing to understand their perspective. Read More

Instruments: Trumpet
I challenge every student to exceed their own expectations. I believe everyone has more to learn and achieve, including me. Many students have taught me something, lets grow together. I use many books to start students and usually spend most of the lesson in the Arban's Complete Conservatory Method for Trumpet (Cornet). I like students to study classic trumpet solo's literature. Trumpet students will learn to slurring, double and triple tonging technics, as well as transposing and how to write music. Read More

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If your child shows an interest in music, s/he is ready to start lessons! The best way to determine if your child is ready for formal music lessons is to simply observe how he/she reacts to music, their interest level in instruments, and how often they engage in musical activities. It's usually not until age six or older that kids are truly ready to learn to play an instrument successfully for the long term.
So, how do you get your child excited about music?
Watch, Learn, Engage
For many kids, just having access to musical instruments piques their interest. Do you have a piano in your house, or know someone who does? Does your child sit at the piano and bang on the keys to make "beautiful" music? Does your elder child have a drum set that your youngest is obsessed with? Perhaps hiring a private tutor or looking into local lessons are in order. You'll find out pretty quickly how interested they are in music based on how they react to practice and lesson time.
Set Some Ground Rules
If you do decide to take the formal lesson route, it is important to set ground rules with your child about lesson and practice time. If your child isn't ready to put the time in, perhaps he/she isn't quite ready to tackle the musical world in a formal way yet. Hiding in the closet until the lesson is half over is a good sign that more time might be needed.
Be Their Biggest Fan
Even though it might sound like nails on a chalkboard, it is essential for parents to take a supportive role when their children are learning to master an instrument or beginning to sing. Reinforce that they are getting better, encourage practice, and follow up with rewards to keep them energized. If they feel your support, they are more likely to continue their dedication to music.
Join in the Fun
If you played an instrument when you were younger—or still do—don't be shy about it. Join your child and create a family band. Or if you just like to sing, grab a brush and rock out to that piano solo. Your interest will in turn keep your child's interest alive and growing.
There's no magic number quite as strong as a mother's intuition—so practice the above, and you'll soon sense when your child is ready to graduate from Tupperware to tuba.
