Music Lessons in Keene, KY

Instruments: Trumpet

My method of teaching trumpet for begginers and advanced students is to first make certain the embouchure is correctly formed, the breathing is correct and the instrumentis held correctly. I'll have the student play for me to detect any areas of concern and consequently I generate lesson plans accordingly. I will introduce drills, etudes and solo pieces at the given time of apparent progress in the areas of concern. I will make the learning experience fun and interesting, however I will requirethe students diligience in accomplishing the goals of trumpet performance which are expressive and beautiful performances.

My teaching experience dates back to my college days, as I began teaching private lessons part time 4+ years ago, I had been teaching them out of my home. Encouraging regular practice is a key point I impress upon my students, with that being said, if a student isn't having fun in their lessons, I am not doing my job, Singing shouldn't be a chore! I especially love working with those who are proacticing for auditions of any type, professional, high school, choir, solo, theatre, or allstate. Read More

Like many singers, I grew up with a love of music. I began singing in church choirs and honor choirs across the country at the age of 8 and started voice lessons at the age of 11. I was in many musicals throughout my teen years and decided to attend college to study opera at Louisiana State University, where I graduated with a Bachelor of Music degree in Vocal Performance in 2012. In 2014, I completed my Master of Music degree from the Chicago College of Performing Arts at Roosevelt University. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice

Each lesson, we will start with stretches and warmups, and I will ask the student if there is anything they want to work on that day. After their lesson, we come up with a game plan together for their practice sessions in the coming week, including identifying which issues need to be worked on at home and how to do so. I view vocal study as collaboration, and above all, I believe it should be fulfilling and fun. Read More

Instruments: Piano

Most of my students use Alfred's Piano Course. After just a few lessons, we add in additional books and songs to expose the student to as much music as possible. I believe that the more music a student is exposed to, the better a musician he or she becomes. With the exception of recital pieces, I rarely spend more than a few weeks on one song, but instead focus on guiding students to play a wide variety of music at their level. Read More
