Music Lessons in Walls, MS

Instruments: Piano Keyboard

Greetings future student! I have composed, performed, taught, and produced music for 25 years now. One way I continue to experience the joy of music is by passing along what I have learned. I am currently the Pianist for Saint Michael Catholic Church and have extensive experience in many facets of music and the challenges we face - both in performance and development of musicianship as well as understanding. I don't live vicariously through my students. Read More

Instruments: Violin

My teaching style works with many different personalities and ages. What I found is that it works best with parents and students who are committed and disciplined in their violin practice at home. It is important for all three of us to realize the commitment we are making when we start our lessons together. Our relationships will thrive with open communication and hard work from each of us. I enjoy getting to know each student's learning style and encouraging them to achieve excellence. Read More

Growing up in Memphis, I began playing the piano at age 6. After moving to bass guitar a few years later, I finally picked up my brother's acoustic guitar and never looked back. At Vanderbilt University, I studied music and English and began gigging professionally in Nashville while still finishing my degree. I've worked as a singer/songwriter, touring artist and session musician in both Nashville and New York City. I'm proud to call Memphis home again when I'm not on tour. Read More

I love the feeling of seeing my students achieve personal growth. I genuinely take the time to encourage each student to develop at their own pace, with focused guidance toward challenging yet realistic goals. Each lesson builds upon previous ones while continuing to address fundamentals and music reading. I like to work in a spiral curriculum where concepts repeat and grow towards higher levels of achievement. I feel that each student's wants and needs should be their primary learning achievements.
