Music Lessons in Lake Mary, FL

Instruments: Flute Piccolo

What I love the most is seeing and hearing students express their love and excitement for music and the flute.  I meet my students where they are and support them in their study.  Not everyone learns the same way and I believe it is my role to use different techniques and styles to help each child reach their goals.

Instruments: Trombone

My teaching experience began in high school, when I worked with the summer band programs of several local middle schools and gave incoming beginning band students a head start on learning the basics of brass instruments. I continued teaching similar programs in college, including middle and high school summer band programs that included sectionals, chamber ensembles, and small music theory classes. In my teaching, I like to incorporate improvisation and creative exercises as well as more traditional methods of learning. Read More

Instruments: Piano

for beginning students who are children, I typically start with Hal Leonard books. This communicates the basics of the instrument very well. I also incorporate scales and chords. After the student develops his or her reading, kinesthetic, technique, and ear I give them a standard classical piece. For Adults, I evaluate their level and goals at the lesson. I develop their scales, chords, arpeggios, reading, kinesthetic memory, theory, and performance aspects. Read More

I enjoy teaching students at all ages and abilities and encourage a passion for music. Above all else, I want to help students achieve the musical goals they are trying to reach and play the pieces they want to play. This will make the lesson entertaining and fulfilling for the student while working to succeed with the learning goals I want to reach with them. I strongly believe that with patience and determination, any student can become the musician they want to be. Read More

Music is a big part of everything that I do. I graduated from Florida State University with a Bachelor of Music Education degree in 1992. I have performed in ensembles, for weddings and special events, and provided accompaniment services to other musicians. I enjoy the complexity and challenges of classical music the most, but I also enjoy the experiences of playing music that makes me feel good. Whether it's music for church, school, accompanying for soloists in competitions or just making music for fun, I love what I do! Read More

Instruments: Bass Guitar

For my teaching style I can only go on my previous lessons where I exhibit a very relaxed and safe learning environment for students by making the lesson more of a constant learning experience rather than other teacher that I have had in the past that make it more of a lecture. My teaching style will also have me playing bass alongside the student to better help them understand the points/ ideas that I want to get across. Read More
