Music Lessons in East Aurora, NY

Instruments: Guitar Electric Guitar Classical Guitar

I've also found that a combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy the piano and motivate them to practice and continue to learn. If a student isn't having fun in their lessons, then I'm not doing my job! My students are encouraged to enter competitions and recitals, as well as work on composing their own original material, so they can feel good about their accomplishments and stay motivated to learn.

Instruments: Guitar

My teaching style is focused on getting a well-rounded education of music and guitar playing while still maintaining a fun and relaxing atmosphere. I like to have a balanced blend of sound (pun intended) technical guitar study with the fun of playing tunes and jamming. I bring to the table an in-depth journey to the realms of music theory while also staying loose and not get too bogged down with academic material. Read More

Instruments: Saxophone

My teaching style involves a lot of listening, both on my part and on the student's. I like to listen to a student play, give them feedback, then listen again in an effort to get the student to listen as well. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice

I love explaining and sharing music with people. I love engaging with students and bringing them from their current level to a higher level of artistic knowledge and musicianship. As an opera singer, recitalist and musical theater performer-I bring a lot of experience and legacy to pass down to my students. I love being able to empower them to do their very best. I am so blessed to be a teacher and performer! Read More

Instruments: Drums

A lot of teachers that I have dealt with were very rude, and terrible at teaching. My approach is more so trying to build a stable foundation and give the necessary tools to become a great musician! I not only teach you how to play the drums and how to hold the sticks etc, but I also teach how to get gigs, how to get people to notice you, what it means to have your own rider, how to promote your own brand etc. Read More

After graduation from WMU, I taught in various school districts around New York as a substitute teacher and music teacher. I have performed with various orchestras such as the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra and the Western New York Chamber Orchestra. Read More
