My teaching experience dates back to high school, when I helped others prepare for their vocal performances in our school competitions. Upon beginning my college career as a musical theatre major, I began to have many fellow students come to me for audition help and vocal training.

Even for those who have taken music lessons in a classroom setting, private lessons allow them to receive specialized guidance they may not be able to receive otherwise. Read More

I began teaching when I was in college, teaching piano lessons to students in the community. Since then, I've taught in every church I've been a part of, and at several studios in the larger community. First and foremost, I believe that learning music should be fun! While I strive to encourage excellence, students should enjoy what they are learning. My students are encouraged to practice regularly and participate in public performace, be it studio recitals or in other venues. I was taught that sharing music is just as important as making it!

With beginning children in clarinet, we will start with the book they are currently using in band (typically essential elements or tradition of excellence).

Scales and arpeggios are also practiced every day and seen as a prerequisite to every practice session. Once the upper level books have been completed, orchestral excerpts and Cavallini's caprices will be introduced. Read More
