Music Lessons in Midvale, UT

Instruments: Piano Voice

My main background has been in the classroom. I have six years of experience teaching choir in secondary schools in Utah and two additional years at the collegiate level so I’ve been able to work with singers from 11 to 20+ years old. Whether your voice is just beginning to change or is maturing, I’ve been there and know how to help! I’ve been playing the piano for over 20 years and love helping students develop a new talent and love for music. Read More

I am a passionate instructor who absolutely loves music! I have played the violin since I was a young girl, and understand the importance of music in a child's life. I am in my last semester at Brigham Young University where I will graduate with a Bachelor's in Viola Performance. I have had the opportunity to travel all over the world with music, performing in festivals in Belgium, Luxembourg, Canada, and more. Read More

Instruments: Trumpet

My beginner students use the Essential Elements book. With that book, you can learn fundamentals in trumpet technique as well as counting. For all other students, I use the Herbert L. Clarke Technical Studies book and selections from the Arban's Conservatory Method. We cover a lot of etudes and techniques from the Arban's book. I also believe collaboration is important in lessons so often we will play duets together in lessons. Read More

My teaching experience dates back to my college days, as I began teaching private lessons 16 years ago. During my international travels I had chance to teach in different countries like Poland, UK, Ireland and now USA. Because I graduated MA of classical performance my teachings were based on classical theory and practice but my passion is Jazz and I took classes and courses in School of Jazz and begun to teach this type of music as well.

Instruments: Trombone

I understand that we all think of music in different ways and that we all learn in different ways. This means that I tailor my lessons to the style and speed of my students because I want them to develop the same love for music that I have. I will help them set goals and find pieces that are not only challenging, but enjoyable. I love it when my students master a piece that used to be very challenging for them so I will always encourage them and acknowledge their progress. Read More
