Music Lessons in Laurelton, NY

Instruments: Voice

My teaching experience dates back to my college days, as I began teaching private lessons part time at various studios and have been consistently teaching students in my home studio for the past 6 years. I like to emphasize a consistent schedule of practice, so that this helps the student progress in their studies. I have also found that by combining styles of classical and modern music can help the student gain a better understanding of their instrument. Read More

Instruments: Voice

Voice lessons are meant to help you maintain vocal health and achieve control over your voice in a way you would like to hear your self. They are for you to be happy and content with your voice. That is why we sing! Exercises are there to help you get the vocal technique into your muscle memory, and as soon as we figure out what helps you do that, we apply it into the song you chose, or that I have suggested.

I wanted to improve on my ability to teach other people how to play and be able to break down to its simplest form in order for people to really understand.

Depending on the students goals, current aptitude, and innate abilities I'll select exercises, etudes, and methodologies from a variety of materials. I work from Hal Leonard's, and Berklee's libraries primarily, but most often use a smattering of tools, exercises, and excerpts that have worked for me and past students; creating a lesson plan over time that is better tailored to the student as an individual. One of the major obstacles when learning the guitar versus, say, the piano, are the immediate physical demands. Read More

Instruments: Flute

I'm a flute teacher interested in educating young flutists as whole musicians, integrating music theory, ear training, eurhythmics, and history where applicable. With a background in music therapy, I have a complex understanding of how music and music learning interact with a person's body, mind, and spirit, and I believe that becoming better musicians can make us better human beings, if we let it. I relish the opportunity to get to know my students and share my knowledge and expertise while being enriched by their lives as well. Read More

The best thing I can do as a teacher is help you realize the path of least resistance for achieving your goals. So, I have developed a style called the Dotted Line Approach. On the first day of lessons, we will discuss both short term and long term goals. Following this, we will develop a roadmap with smaller goals for each week, month, 3 months, and year. Each month, we will revisit your goals, discuss what is and what isn't working, and make plans to stay on track towards meeting your goals. Read More
