Piano Lessons in Brodhead, WI

Instruments: Piano Voice

Music is much more than notes on a page or a skill to be obtained- it is an universal means of expression and has the potential to touch people in different ways, performer and audience alike. Because of this perspective, I enjoy studying and teaching a variety of genres, eras, languages, and characters. I believe that some of the best teachers of performing arts are those that can use their performance knowledge as a basis for guiding their students while also acting as a sounding board for their students to use in respect to their own musical decisions.

Instruments: Piano

I really enjoy seeing my students enjoy learning music as that brings me back to my memories of learning. I find it is important to allow students to work at their own pace so they will not become frustrated and lose interest in what I am teaching them. With that I feel it is important to take as much time as the students needs in order for them to grasp what they are being taught as I feel it will hurt them down the road later when they start to get into playing the music as it will get harder down the road.

My teaching style involves a more personal level. For example, finding out what the student enjoys listening to, what their motivations as well as what their priorities are. The student will, for the most part, control the direction of their skill. I will show, by example, how amazingly useful music theory is as well as how to understand a piece of music just by listening to it. By understanding aural skills, the will be able to identify components of each song or sequence of notes just by hearing it. Read More

Both my piano and voice students perform in competitions regularly. Read More
