Music Lessons in Lumberton, NJ

Instruments: Voice

No matter the age of the student, I work to find music to which the student can connect both musically and psychologically, which is important in keeping the student engaged and motivated. I don't use a particular teaching methodology or repertoire series, but instead pull from a variety of pedagogical techniques and song anthologies, tailoring each lesson to the student, where they are in their vocal development and on that particular day.

Teaching started in my college years, taking up opportunities to teach family and friends for fun. Ironically, my first student happened to be my dad. The experience was so uplifting to him that he began to seek oppotunitites to perform occasionally at his church! That moment was a huge factor in wanting to pursue private instruction. It's worth teaching because you can inspire any and everybody to learn and play music. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Synthesizer

I began teaching almost 4 years ago during my last years in Boston before moving to the Philadelphia area.  Stylistically, I focus on practice, patience and passion with my students and have seen great results thus far.  I believe in using both contemporary references as well as references from former decades or eras in music.  When a student is able to hear the music coupled with seeing the music; amazing things can happen!

I like to bring fun, energy and humor to my lessons. If it is not fun, there is no reason to learn. Music is meant for joyful expression, and maybe sometimes sadness, but if my student is in a certain mood, I always deal with the human first, and then enjoy talking with them for a few minutes to relax, which scientific studies have proven, works best in allowing the brain to absorb new information.

I am an experienced piano and organ teacher with many years of music teaching and performance (solo and in groups). I have taught in student's homes and in commercial music studios.

Instruments: Flute Recorder Piccolo

I have been teaching since 2007, and have worked with nearly all levels -- from the ultra beginners who have never held a flute to the advanced flutist who has gone on to place in competitions or won collegiate scholarships. I've had 6-year-old students and 60-year-old students. In addition, I also have given workshops on topics such as stage presence, vibrato, and intonation, and have conducted three different flute choirs. I always try to gear lessons to individual needs; for those who want to enjoy playing, I can provide fun as well as structure to lead improvement -- and for those who wish to be competitive musicians, I can provide the necessary framework to help you reach your goals.

Instruments: Piano

I will have the have a notebook so that every class we can write down what the student needs to practice and and work on till next time. The student might feel bored in the beginning but I hope to show the student the fun in learning music and how rewarding it feels to learn a piece. Watching the student grow and start to have interest on their own is what is most important. Read More
