Piano Lessons in Caledonia, WI

Instruments: Piano Voice Violin Viola

For piano I use the Alfred series, and for violin and viola I use a combination of Essential Elements and Suzuki books.  As students advance I introduce additional solo repertoire.  My voice students learn from a variety of sources.  I usually start with a song they know well and work from there.  Students also learn a variety of warm-ups and sight-singing techniques.   Read More

For piano, I typically start of using Faber Piano Adventures paired with Edna Burnam's "A Dozen A Day." I like pairing the traditional lesson book - which focuses on the fundamentals and using familiar tunes to teach basic theory, note recognition, early technique, etc. with the Burnam exercises which gives the student tools to start incorporating other musical elements into their playing because these exercises become a warm-up routine instead of something to be checked off of a list.

As a professional teacher, I love sharing the joy of music with the students. As part of my job, it is toeducate the students in order to give them enough knowledge to enjoy music on their own. Helping thechildren enjoy music requires making the lesson content in the way that is adaptive for the students.Finding things that the students can connect to, can have fun with, and can enjoy learning will be thestrategies that I would utilize to make the learning meaningful, relevant, and exciting for all learners.For example, I will incorporate learning rhythms to a beat or a song that the students will enjoy listeningto.

Lessons always begin with a brief review over what was covered during the previous lesson and what materials were practiced by the student. New concepts and techniques are modeled by me first. I then provide several opportunities for the student to practice this new idea or skill in a variety of ways. I am also a huge fan of incorporating educational games and activities to maintain students' interest in the lesson. Read More
