Music Lessons in South Jordan, UT

Instruments: Piano

I fell in love with teaching the piano during my freshman year of high school. That was 8 years ago, and I have been teaching consistently from my home studio and online ever since then. I have found that there is a fine balance to be struck between structure and curiosity in helping a student cultivate their love for music. I make a point to help my students create consistent practice schedules while allowing them space to play with and explore the piano. Read More

Instruments: Violin Viola

When first taking private viola lessons I studied Wohfahrt Etudes. Playing 1-2 level appropriate pieces is a great amount. Repertoire from the Suzuki books are fundamental stepping stones into becoming a better musician. I always enjoyed when I got to play a piece that I chose out myself, so I want to allow my students to find a piece of music on their own that they would love to play. Read More

Instruments: Voice

I approach each student differently because each person has different strengths, needs, and goals. No two lessons are ever taught the same way because each one is tailored to the individual. I am happy to work with students on specific repertoire for auditions or other events, and/or on general literature simply for the love of singing and the joy of growth. It is important to realize that much of success depends on the motivation of the student and that there are no "quick fixes," but if we work together with realistic expectations, everyone will be successful.

Instruments: Cello

I believe the foundation of successful learning is based on a trusting relationship between student and teacher. I strive to get to know my students more each week and take an interest in their lives outside of the music world - I want my students to succeed in every facet of their lives! Furthermore, I want my students to feel confident with their playing. Oftentimes, I will ask open-ended questions to understand how my students feel they are doing. Read More

Instruments: Piano

A few years ago, I taught the piano for approximately three years. I stopped teaching for a while in order to pursue my Bachelor's Degree - beginning at Dixie State University, and I am now working to build my clientele again. I absolutely love to teach. One of my favorite moments with every students happens at around the 4th or 5th lesson, when the student then feels comfortable enough to begin to discuss with me some of their goals with the piano. (Some students open up a little sooner, and others take some time). Read More

Instruments: Drums Bass Guitar

All I want for my students is to reach their goals. Goals are important. Goals get you to your next goal. I want to share my passion and experiences of drumming with my students. I want to see my students grow. I want my students to share with me what music makes them want to grow. I have had the honor of performing with many amazing musicians, probably some of the best.

For guitar- I studied under Mike Christensen at Utah States University. I use his guitar books that he has written. For piano- I use Alfred''s piano books. They are very well written and are geared for success! For flute- I start with Suzuki and then the sky is the limit! I like playing music theory games with kids. It is more enjoyable to learn this when it is a game. Read More
