I have taught private lessons since 2011, where I started as a substitute instructor for Allegro School of Music (Nashville, TN). In 2013, I took on my own roster of private students, and have continued doing that ever since. I worked as an elementary music specialist for Metro Nashville Public Schools from 2013-2018. Teaching students, one-on-one, is my primary passion. The work that happens individually is indispensable to the musical success a student achieves. Read More

I am extremely passionate about the voice and love teaching music to students of all ages! I've been a music teacher for 6+ years and taught at a K-8 school. Additionally, I have 10 years of experience teaching lessons. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Music with a concentration on classical voice and composition. I teach most styles of singing- including classical, opera, musical theatre, pop, rock, country, and jazz. I love playing piano and guitar and will teach you all about chords, music theory, and how to play like your favorite artists! Read More

No two students are the same. I pride myself on catering to each individuals need and desire. I do give every student the same basic foundation, but after the foundation is set, the continued direction is entirely up to the student [parent]. In previous years, I've had students who wanted to be the next Beyonce, some who need better technique, and some who just wanted to build upon what they already had. Read More

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! I find it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. Read More

Music inspires every human being in some capacity. Not everybody can appreciate all genres of music. While there are melodies and harmonies that are pivitol for creating a strong foundation as a musician, I prefer to work with the student in a genre that will inspire the student to want to practice. If there is desire to practice, the student will continue to grow musically. Therefore, I don't want to force a student to play Mozart when it might be the music of Bruce Hornsby that inspires the student to live another day and vice versa. Read More

My approach to teaching music is holistic. I believe there are 3 important components that lead to mastery of the instrument: 1. Technique, 2. Artistry, 3. Comprehension. Technique: Understanding of the body and how it works at the piano. By this, I mean how to play using the weight of the body rather than brute force. Playing the piano does not require strong muscles or physical strength. It requires an intricate and fluid motion that comes from understanding how the hands/arms are connected to the rest of the body, and how they work together to produce sound from the piano. Read More
