My teaching experience spans 6 years. I've taught all ages, so I'm comfortable with everybodys learning pace. In college I studied under the Latin Grammy award winning La Catrina Quartet, and I hope to pass down the knowledge I gain from that experience to my students. With my students, I take them step by step through were they are as a musician, to were they need to be. My experience working in ensembles will also expand my students ability to play in groups of all sizes (which will often happen). Read More

I have been teaching since age 15 (1999). In addition to extensive performing experience on clarinet, I have functioned as a piano accompanist, choir member, and praise band member through the years. As noted above, I teach clarinet, saxophone, flute, and piano. My methods vary according to each individual students' needs and goals, however I try to find the approach that will best help a student to appreciate music in general, sharpen the mind, and give each student a level of skill on their instrument that provides a sense of accomplishment.

Instruments: Piano Acoustic Guitar
I believe in a hands on approach. Although I do use books to help reinforce and practice music concepts, I find that children learn through doing, so I use a hand over hand approach. I believe that one does not learn unless one wants to learn and therefore see myself less as a teacher and moreso a creator of an environment in which the student is able to teach themselves.

Besides teaching clarinet, piano, and saxophone, I also have experience in Orff, which is an education system to help children learn music in life. Read More
Instruments: Piano
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Piano is a foundational instrument and coming from a family of musicians, all 10 of us siblings started on the piano. The piano let some to different instruments, but once you learn the piano, your ability to pick up and learn other instruments is exponentially easier. The notes, chords, time signatures and music theory translate to other instruments. At at a minimum if an individual can take a few years of piano and then move to another instrument, they will have a much easier time learning an additional instrument. If you start your child with piano right away, by the time they are in middle school and want to participate in band for example, they will be well equipped and have an advantage.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am proud I have spent a lifetime playing the piano for others, as well as, my own enjoyment! My family, my friends, my church, for so many weddings, funerals, choirs, etc.. I am so proud of the many students I have taught and that stuck with the instrument until they were able to play fluently and gained the lifetime enjoyment from the piano instrument. I had one student, Sarah, who started lessons with me in 3rd grade. She was very motivated and very bright! She worked hard at learning and advancing on the piano, as well as, in her knowledge of theory and her appreciation of music. We worked together until Sarah was a junior in high school. At that point, it was my pleasure to say Sarah needed the next level teacher:) What an accomplishment for her, as well as, myself. Along the way, Sarah participated in band, learned other instruments and kept with her piano for many years.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Any one of my students succeeded and deserved special honors every year that they stuck with the piano. However, it was my greatest pleasure when a student wanted to compete at, for example the MNTA piano competition. To learn a difficult piece, to master it, perform it in a competitive venue is a big hurdle and accomplishment for a student. I encourage and try to insensitize a student to try a competition at least once - certainly not required as not everyone is comfortable with this, however, like recitals, a competition can be a great teaching tool.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I use a combination of methods, Alfred, Leonard, etc. - I don't subscribe to one method, but find using a variety in combination usually works best. There is no substitute for learning and memorizing your notes, for learning and being able to play to the time signature, for learning music theory, etc.. I have found finding out what style of music the students likes and wants to play is often very motivating and from that point, bringing in all the required elements. You can learn the notes, time signatures and theory from playing any style of music and often playing what you like, whether it is show tunes or pop, keeps you sitting at the piano and playing.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
Warm up first - warming up the hands, fingers, wrists is as often neglected as stretching before and after a workout!
