Music Lessons in Lithia Springs, GA

Instruments: Piano Voice

I don't offer a common style of lessons with all students, instead I design a course of study based upon each student's interests, personality, and the direction they want to go with their music, and after a few sessions of working together, I like to select repertoire that showcases them well and peaks their interests. Some techniques and concepts are commonly shared within the studio, however sessions may take a different direction of music study based on discovering a student's strengths and weaknesses and how to build upon on certain areas in their training so his/her lesson is productive.

Instruments: Piano Voice Trumpet Music Keyboard

For beginners who are children, I usually start with a method book series such as Bastien or Faber. As soon as it is appropriate, I also begin teaching fundamentals like scales, arpeggios, sight-reading, and supplemental technical training (Hanon exercises, for example). I also like to introduce works by famous composers as soon as I can - they come in all levels of difficulty and provide an opportunity to teach some music history. Read More

Instruments: Violin Cello Viola Double Bass

I am not a method Nazi. I teach what the student needs. If i am teaching a student bass, but they need the agility of a cellist, then I find material suitable to gain that outcome. However, I do understand that students and parents need track-able goals to perceive progress. I am always happy to discuss what method may be best used after I have observed the students aptitude and desired outcome. Read More

A vast majority of them were Musical Theatre singers, but I utilized classical technique and scientific understanding to teach them how to fully utilize their voices and yield the most control and best sound possible out of their instruments. I also began teaching guitar, pop vocals, and even developed a unique approach to teaching songwriting utilizing basic music theory knowledge and common chord progression techniques to help young artists get the sounds in their head into a concrete song.

I started teaching Privately in 2007 and have continued off and on since. I have worked with students in Woodwind and Brass either privately or in a school setting. Also, I had the opportunity to work with multiple schools ensembles and marching bands. I encourage all of my students to maintain a constant practice schedule in order to work toward our goals. Music is meant to be enjoyed, so I like to find what it is my student enjoys and improve on those aspects. Read More

Instruments: Voice Music

I am a dedicated, fun music teacher who loves watching their students grow into their fullest voice. In December of 2020, I graduated from Georgia State University with a Bachelor's degree in Choral/General Music Education. I am a middle school choir director Monday-Friday. Though my primary focus is teaching, I have performing experience in musical theatre, classical, pop, country and rock n roll. I performed in a band for about three years while in college. Read More

Instruments: Piano Synthesizer Music Keyboard

I began teaching private lessons full time in 2011. I know that when students have fun and see progress at every lesson, they are motivated to become better musicians. As a result, progress is quicker and my students retain what they have learned. I've also found that a combination of classical and modern music, as well as learning music I have composed, helps students enjoy the piano and motivates them to practice and continue to see improvements in their understanding and playing abilities.
