Music Lessons in Fountain Square, IN

Instruments: Guitar Classical Guitar

I have spent the past three years teaching group and individual lessons in pop and classical guitar as part of my graduate studies at Indiana University's Jacobs School of Music. This means I have taught college-aged students exclusively, up to this point. However, I am completely open to teaching students of all ages. Most of my students have been complete beginners who have little to no experience making music, so I am absolutely comfortable working with novices. Read More

Instruments: Piano

I teach Wunderkeys to pre-schoolers ages 4 5. This method gives them a head-start in math as well as patterning. I start beginner piano students (ages 6 and up) with Faber's Piano Adventures. I introduce intermediate students to Alfred's Premier Piano Course as this method starts them on solo repertoire. I find out what adult students are interested in and guide my instruction accordingly to keep them engaged. If my students are not having fun, then I'm not doing my job! Read More

Instruments: Flute Piccolo

I try to inspire students to become passionate musicians and people through my teaching and by example. It is important to play from the heart and not just notes on a page. It makes music and flute playing all the more gratifying! I also provide a lot of positive encouragement for students in their music but also for their lives in general. I believe that it is important to create a level of trust and comfortability with students so that more progress can be made on the flute. Read More

Instruments: Violin

I have toured for the past eleven years as a soloist and chamber musician. I am grateful for every opportunity to play with musicians and family alike and value balance in every aspect of life. A curious soul and avid seeker of this wondrous yet somewhat elusive construct, I continue to leap for it (in full congruency with the stars) in all that I do to carry me into the depths of the imagination that circumnavigates the luminosity of the present moment!

Instruments: Guitar Drums Bass Guitar

I have over ten years of experience playing the guitar, drums, and bass playing all kinds of genres of music. My live performance experience includes playing with an instrumental band for house events for one year (drums). A rock band performing all around northern Indiana for three years(drums). Youth group worship for two years (guitar), High school chapel worship 2 years (bass). I also have done recording studio work while playing throughout the years. Read More

Instruments: Drums

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students grow and develop to being an outstanding musician! I understand that all students do progress at their own pace, but it is my goal to get your student there in the fastest and most efficient way. The most efficient way is not just playing in a session with me, but practicing at home. This will double the speed of development. Read More
