Music Lessons in Plymouth, MI

Instruments: Flute

I am widely sought-after as a clinician, adjudicator, masterclass teacher, and performer both as a modern and baroque flutist. I'm a passionate and motivated instructor who loves working with students and sharing my love of music currently working on my Doctorate in Musical Arts in Flute Performance with Dr. Mary Karen Clardy. When not performing or researching for my next upcoming project, I enjoy spending time taking care of my plants, watching Netflix, and raising awareness for Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. Read More

Instruments: Violin

I started playing violin when I was 7. I've been with Musika since 2011 (while I was in college). I have experience teaching Suzuki method (violin) from young age kids to old students. I also have been teaching Suzuki Method (K-12) strings at a local arts school and also at a Korean community center. I am currently teaching music subject at school as well. I've also found that a combination of classical and modern pop music can go a long way in helping students enjoy the violin and motivate them to practice and continue to learn. Read More

Instruments: Drums

I am a well-versed instructor who is inspired by that moment when something "clicks" with a student. I work hard to ensure that all my students receive a thorough training in all aspects of drumming, including rudiments, improvisation, music theory, etc. My strong love for music is deeply rooted, and this drives me to learn as much as I can about all genres and styles. In 2012, I graduated from Washtenaw Community College with an Associate's Degree in Music Production and Engineering. Read More

Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar Banjo Ukulele Double Bass

My curriculum is largely up to my student, I write custom excercises as well as reenforce musical notation through transcription of the student's favorite music. Being classically trained I place a heavy importance on technique and the physical attributes of playing string instruments. I can hope to instill the passion I feel for music in my students lives, I believe music is the spice of life and inevitably enriching to the player! Read More

Instruments: Flute

For beginning students (adult and children) I like to be sure that their knowledge about fundamentals is solid. I believe ear training is paramount. Not everyone can sing, but secure pitch discrimination can help all musicians (even percussionists). I encourage all students to participate in ensembles (band, choral also). Knowledge of phrasing is also important to aspiring musicians. Students need support from listening to others play (live performances, radio,and recordings). Read More

Instruments: Guitar Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I began teaching guitar lessons in my home studio while I was still in college. I encourage frequent practice on a consistent schedule. When I began playing as a teenager, I practiced for up to 11 hours each day. There is no way that I could expect any of my students to possibly do that, but I do stress the importance of practicing often while keeping things fun. I also encourage my students to keep an open mind and listen to all genres of music, as there is something that can be learned from each genre, from metal to jazz to classical. Read More
