Music Lessons in Livingston Park, OH

Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Bass Guitar

My teaching methods are largely dependant on the needs and experience of the student. For begining guitar, bass, and key board students I generally work with several method books, and supply supplimentary materials as required. I believe that each student is unique, and what works for one student might not be sutiable for another. I assess a students learning style and develop lesson plans that emphaisze their strenths, and encourge them to develop. Read More

I teach through positive reinforcement and encouragement with a set structure that allows for discipline and certain benchmarks that can determine success and mastery of certain skills. I truly believe that when students are nurtured and given a comfortable space they will excel as creating music and art is vulnerable and requires the student to let go. This cannot happen unless the teacher facilitates an environment and space for organic innovation by the student. Read More

Instruments: Violin Saxophone Music

It's really important to me that students enjoy what they are doing in music. It is a skill that has endless possibilities for creativity, expressing emotions, and connecting with others. This is what I want my students to learn and to bring with it a passion for music they can have for the rest of their lives. Music completed changed my life and I want to give that experience back to my students along with developing life long skills that can transfer to other areas of life such as responsibility, perseverance, and problem solving.

I'm passionate about student growth through the wonderful medium that music is. I graduated from Wesleyan College in 2014 with a Bachelors of Arts in Music focused in Vocal performance and a studio art minor with a painting focuse, and this fall I am going to start working towards a Masters of Fine Arts at Columbus College of Art and Design. Music conects me to people, places, and my own emotions like nothing else. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Trumpet Bass Guitar

Music should be fun. If it isn't fun, why do it? Music is art, not machinery, and I believe lesson time should be the perfect blend of work and fun. It takes work to achieve new skill levels in music, but it takes joy, love and fun to make the work worth it! I help guide students to achieve new goals by encouraging and always pointing to the positive (because to me negative reinforcement just doesn't work). Read More

Instruments: Trumpet

I have been teaching trumpet and conducting on and off since graduating from high school. I have also taught marching technique and drum major conducting in my summers between school. My teaching style reflects methods that did and did not work on me as I grew up learning the trumpet. Regular practice times and a variety of learning material help to keep lessons fresh and dynamic and allow me to assign new materials faster. Read More
