I have taught piano since 2009 and have experience teaching various age groups and skill levels. Read More
Instruments: Piano Organ
My experience with teaching began during my undergraduate studies. I have worked with students in the classroom teaching elementary music as well as at the middle school and high school level teaching choir. In addition, I have taught my closest friends in piano and organ. While I was the staff accompanist at a high school, I taught the treble choir and gave piano and voice lessons during off-periods. I have thoroughly enjoyed teaching, especially when I see that students are inspired by music and are willing to take on the task of mastering their craft. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I move at whatever pace is appropriate for the particular student. We set long-term goals so they have something they are working towards and are rewarded for hard work. Learning how to play the piano is about so much more than just the piano! The benefits reach far beyond music, helping them with school, self-confidence, and many other aspects in their everyday life. Although we do follow a method book for at least the first few years, we add additional solo music, and I let them choose from several level-appropriate pieces so that they are enjoying what they are learning.

Instruments: Piano
One of the things I love about teaching is watching my students grasp the musical concepts I teach, as well as see how they all relate. Each student progresses at their own pace, some faster, some slower than others. I tweak my teaching style to meet each student's unique abilities, so as to assist them in reaching their potential. Together with teaching my students the basic concepts of music, I also work with them on musical concepts and types of music that they are interested in. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Viola
I am a passionate and motivated instructor who loves working with students and sharing my love of music. I graduated from Kansas Wesleyan University in May of 2019 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music Theory and Composition. while there, I also studied violin and piano under renowned musicians and instructors. I had the opportunity to play in a national award-winning university orchestra, filling the roles of assistant concertmaster and principal second violin at various times. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practice makes perfect - there is no shortcut. One must practice, however, if the student can tap into the love and appreciation of the instrument and the music, the goal becomes one in which the student looks forward to and makes time in their daily life to have their time at the piano. I recommend tailoring the practice schedule to the student - remember our goal is to get the student to stick with it, especially at times where the learning curve is steeper. Setting a daily time works for some, others may be more motivated if, for example, the parent asks them to play while they are cooking dinner because they love to listen to the music. Playing for others enjoyment is usually motivating for new students.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
There is no perfect age to start the piano, however, I like to start a student at 6 years old. Around the time children start school, they are ready to pay attention for short bursts of time, they know their LH & RH, their brain is ripe for grasping and learning new concepts. That being said, I have started students in middle school and adulthood - it is never too late to learn an instrument and I love teaching beginning piano students - adults are usually motivated students! If an individual is expressing a curiosity, desire or aptitude towards learning the piano - then jump in and give it a try!
When will I start to see results?
After the first lesson! The beautiful thing about learning piano, is in 30 minutes you leave having learned something about the piano, music and theory that you didn't know when you started your lesson. Each lesson you should learn a little something new and have something new to work on to advance your ability to play the piano. As the student progresses, it may be a new note, a new time signature, a new piece of music, a new style of music, a new concept from theory, perhaps learning to transpose, or a new key signature.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Most certainly! My first piano teacher would clap her hands, dance, give me a hug, laugh and show delight as I would progress and play a song. Perhaps the song didn't sound very musical at the beginning, perhaps there were pauses and breaks in the music, perhaps there were wrong notes, but her exuberance and encouragement were vital to my confidence and desire to keep going in the early stages where the music doesn't sound too musical! An important component to achieving success at playing the piano is the commitment to stick with it until notes are learned and a student can play a few songs fluently and confidently, then they are able to "hear" their progress and have hope they will achieve their dream of being able to play the piano.
