Instruments: Piano Organ Keyboard
I currently teach piano lessons at Trinity under the name of Joseph’s Piano, and at That Music Place in Springboro and Bella Musica in Miamisburg. Some of my past performances include piano accompaniment for Ohio Performing Arts Musicals and the Clark State Community College Chorus. While in high school at Springfield Shawnee, I played the pipe organ at Wittenberg University’s Weaver Chapel. At Wright State I accompanied the Men's Chorale on piano and performed with the Wright State Orchestra on organ. Read More

Music should be fun. If it isn't fun, why do it? Music is art, not machinery, and I believe lesson time should be the perfect blend of work and fun. It takes work to achieve new skill levels in music, but it takes joy, love and fun to make the work worth it! I help guide students to achieve new goals by encouraging and always pointing to the positive (because to me negative reinforcement just doesn't work). Read More

Music is the center of my life, and sharing the knowledge and joy with students is my passion. I have been playing professionally for two decades in a variety of styles, and I hold a Ph.d. in Ethnomusicology from The Ohio State University. I have performed in around the world and recently completed a tour of India. Two of my recent albums were selected for the final 2015 Grammy Ballot. Read More

I have over 5 years of teaching experience working with a variety of communities and age groups internationally and locally. This has allowed me the flexibility to truly cater my teaching style to the needs of each and every student, and be culturally competent realizing that every student learns differently and has different needs. I have conducted a children's choir as well and have played music professionally for over 15 years. I also am an actress where I have acted in a variety of films and theater projects across the city.

Instruments: Piano Keyboard
I'm a motivated and passionate instructor who loves sharing my love of music with students as well as helping them learn. A lifelong pianist, I have performed since the age of 3. I performed and participated in competitions until high school. My favorite composers to learn were Beethoven and Chopin. In college, I took coursework in Music History, Music Theory, and Composition. Now, I continue to write and perform music solo and with my band. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Bass Guitar Ukulele Double Bass Acoustic Guitar
My teaching style feels relaxed but I work hard to keep students in their least restrictive environment. We dont want the student to be too challenged or bored. For this reason I am flexible with the content we work on and the order in which we complete different parts of the lesson. I give a lot of choice to students, maybe one day they want to start with working on some improvisation and want to work on their assigned pieces the 2nd half of the lesson. Read More
Instruments: Piano Flute
Ibegan teaching private lessons from 2004 and tried to consistently teaching students in my home studio. I was a counselor and private lesson instructor at the OSU Flute Workshop from 2011 to 2013. Playing duets with student, learn very exciting extended techniques, and various repertoire are features I emphasize for students to help them enjoy and motivate to learn. In addition to that, I encourage students to prepare for competitions and recitals in order to develop and improve their musicianship I started teaching piano to beginners from this year. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
My primary instrument is the voice and has always been my first love. I absolutely love to sing and have really enjoyed helping others to learn as well. Choosing my voice as a my primary instrument never seemed like a choice to me. I've always known that I've wanted to be a singer and have enjoyed every second of it. The one thing I love about this instrument is that everyone has one! Everyone can learn to use their voice better and more effectively when making music. There are no good and bad voices. Each one is unique and special and can benefit from good technique!
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
i would have to say that time spent traveling in musical ensembles were the some of the best experiences of my life. In high school I made it into a select group that traveled to churches and events. This helped me experience different venues and also help with my confidence when performing seeing that I was always meeting new people. In college, I was able to tour with my choir to Europe and sing at some of the most beautiful and sacred places in the world. My favorite memory from that place was performing in the Notre Dame cathedral in Paris, France. Absolutely beautiful!
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing to master on any instrument is discipline! Techniques and concepts can be learned, but having the focus to sit down on your own and learn is difficult for anyone. If you can learn how to focus and practice on your own, there is no skill level you cannot reach. I have seen this again and again in students. As soon as they develop this ability, you can see their skill level take off. This is super exciting to me and I love to see this growth in my students. Focus is also a great life skill that is applicable in almost every area! Teaching music = Teaching life!
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I choose to use the Faber and Faber Piano adventures books for my piano students. I really have learned to love this series. Having used several other methods books in the past, I really prefer these due to their pacing and presentation of material. With some other books, I have felt things were rushed and concepts were presented in a way that were hard to understand. Faber and Faber have always proven to be a reliable learning tool for all ages and can be used to teach students of any age or skill level. For my voice students, I use a mixture of materials based on genre, voice type and interest. I usually have them create a folder that we then fill with various materials to help them learn and grow as a singer.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
Students must first find a time of the day to practice and stick with it! It should be a time were you are not rushed and have little to no distractions. Warming your hands or voice up is a great way to start your practice session. I provide techniques and warm-up activities that will help prepare you to play your instrument effectively. Once that is completed, start with the first song assigned to you that week. Look over the summary page that I give every student to make sure you know what to focus on and how to proceed. If it's a particularly challenging piece, you may want to start and practice the most difficult section first, then start back at the beginning. If you get stuck and become frustrated, sometimes it is best to walk away and start fresh the next day. This will give you time to calm down and look at it with fresh eyes.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I received a BA in Music Education from Capital University. I have always had a passion for teaching others and helping students grow in their particular skill. I use that passion now as a music teacher in a public school to help my students find their love for music. It can be difficult at times to
