Piano Lessons in Christmas, FL

Instruments: Piano Voice Ukulele Keyboard

I love for each student to leave their lesson excited about the music they create! I am an encouraging teacher, but I help my students set realistic goals (and stretch goals!) that keep them motivated to progress in their musicianship. How our lessons progress really depends on the student in question. If they would like to pursue competitions, I am well equipped to help. If they choose to develop their skills in a lower stakes environment without any competitions, that's also completely fine. Read More

Instruments: Piano Trombone Euphonium

My teaching experience began during my first year of college in 2014. While visiting home during the Holidays, I began giving private lessons. Along with my education classes, I completed several practicums as a well as a 12 week student teaching program. Ultimately, my goal is to instill music as an intricate part of all of my students' lives. It is important for students to form an appreciation for music while also creating their own identity in the art. Read More

My teaching style tends to adapt to the particular student. Nobody likes someone who comes on too strong or is completely set in their ways. I want to get to know you! I then try to bring my approach into the picture. I have a very engaging teaching style. I feel that getting constant feedback from the student is very important. The last thing I want is a confused student! Read More

Not everyone will become a professional music or composer. My experience gives me the insight to offer the tools you need, for your music learning experience. As a "drumset" "percussion" teacher. I'll use The Tommy Thomas Percussion Library (334) pages of lessons. I've taught music to early learners, ages 1 year through Seniors. Learning music and an instrument can be a rewarding experience. Music should be an enjoyable experience. I value each individuals skill level and their goal. Read More

In 2016, I relocated to Valdosta, GA, where I stayed for four years as a Visiting Assistant Professor and then as an Assistant Professor of Music. I relocated in 2020 for family reasons to the Orlando area, where I teach part time at Valencia College. During these past number of years, I have learned that teaching students and learning music is fun. It also takes hard work, consistency, and willingness to persevere. Read More

My method for vocal students starts with a simple scale. I start off knowing what genres they listen to, practice, like, and dislike, and then I move on to their range. That is the key to understanding their limits a little more. From there I move onto whatever song they have prepared any. Then I go on a case by case basis. For method books. I don't really use them.
