Instruments: Piano Organ Synthesizer Keyboard
I have been a music instructor since 1979. I teach the piano, spinet organ and keyboards. I also have a passion in MIDI computer music. I love seeing students excel and be given the opportunity to do well in their skill set. The process of life-long learning, sharing of knowledge and skills is one of my deepest passions in the teaching and training field. I enjoy teaching both onsite and online utilizing traditional methods along with current computer technology combined with effective teaching strategies and approaches which engages students and learners in a motivating and enriching learning experience.

Instruments: Piano Voice Trumpet
I teach piano classically by reading music and patterns. As we progress, sometimes the student gets disinterested. At that point, I introduce the chord method as well as the number system- having them play certain progressions as I prompt them to play. My teaching technique for vocal students are as follows: I find out what their forte is vocally and find out what key they sing a particular song in. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I like to get an idea from the student and the parent what their expectations are for music lessons. From there, the student and I come up with musical goals to accomplish for that year. We create a practice schedule based on the student's school and extracurricular activities and try to follow that schedule as much as possible. I also like to incorporate other styles of music such as popular Broadway pieces and Contemporary pieces into the student's repertoire so that they can have greater diversity in their piano playing or singing.

It all started when I took my first drum lesson in the 4th grade. From then on, I wanted to play whenever I could. I played in all my school bands from middle school to high school. Graduated Southern University, home of the world famous "Human Jukebox" which I was a member of for 3 years, as well as playing for my church since I was 13. Along the way I have had the honor of meeting and learning from respected musicians such as Lawrence Jackson (former director of SU Bands), Herman Jackson (Brother of Randy Jackson), Jerry Lee Lane (Marching percussion pioneer) and countless others.

I believe that the role of a teacher is to guide and to help their students to develop a lifelong love of learning. I offer my students a balanced approach in learning music. I believe anyone can be taught to play an instrument at any age, if genuine interest is there. With more than 5 years of teaching piano working with children and adults, I hope I can help you or your child appreciate and grow the love of music. Read More
Instruments: Piano
With each and every one of my students, I try to help them appreciate the music they are playing. I always try to emphasize practicing everyday, paying attention to the rhythm, and sight reading the music. I also make sure to tailor to the student's needs. A comfortable setting is established for them so that they may not feel stressed out and that I am there to always help them out. Read More

Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
My Dad used to walk around strumming on a baritone ukulele and singing out his country songs, and always had guitars laying around the house.
My grandpa had an amazing woodgrain F-hole acoustic guitar in the basement that I was fascinated with, and he eventually gave it to me.
I still have it and played it at his memorial service????
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I decided to become a professional instructor when I started teaching my own children. When I saw the fruit of their efforts and the joy they found in their abilities, coupled with the rewards I receive in teaching - I was sold. I love it.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I love many genres of music: Folk, Country, Blues, Spirituals, Rock, Metal.
My favorite style of music depends on my current mood, music is always a creative expression of the thoughts and feelings inside of the player.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
For myself, my routine disciplines of repeating and polishing the more challenging and new material I am learning, as well as staying brushed up on my regular knowledge.
In my student lessons, occasionally a brief social catch-up of the week, then hearing the students perform their assigned lesson work, jumping in for assisting and correcting, tagging on to lesson topics to enhance the subject, tying into related new topics of instruction.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My high school band teacher, Mr. Lester, greatly inspired me... because he was knowledgeable, encouraging, engaging, and a great listener.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Keep your eyes on the prize, practice with the intent of achieving your desired goal. In difficult sections of your practice, break it up into smaller pieces and practice each section repeatedly until comfortable, then move on to the next.
When will I start to see results?
If the lessons are appropriately designed, an hour's worth of devoted practice should show growing familiarity with the lesson.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I create my own lesson modules, and offer the Hal Leonard books as an option for the guitar students desiring to learn the five line staff. For clarinet and bass students I have several Kindle books I work from.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
My original compositions and recordings, and being asked to perform at friends weddings and memorial services for the relatives.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I chose my primary instrument for two reasons – high regard for my favorite musicians, and the ability to let my creative voice out in musical expression.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Do they walk around playing air guitar while listening to a song?
Do they gaze intently at musicians in a live band?
Do you hear them humming or singing their own musical creations?
