Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Music Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I started teaching lessons when I was 18 at a music business and taught there between 3 to 5 hours a week for about 5 years. For the past 5 years I have been teaching at IU. I have taught many different styles from classical to jazz to rock, etc. and have also watched many great teachers and tried to learn from their methods. I am currently working on a book to teach the notes and fretboard of the guitar that will hopefully be able to help students of any age or experience. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I believe, the beggest advantage of the teacher, do not put pressure on the student personaliity, do not to impose your own individuality, dose not make it a role model and play for yourstudents as much as possible. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone Flute Organ
I began teaching shortly after graduating from college, not expecting that teaching would be something I'd be too keen about. However, it has really grown on me and I love the gift of giving music to prospective students and watching them grow and learn as I once did. I have been teaching at various locations/businesses throughout the NJ area from as south as Swedesboro to as north as Trenton. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Saxophone Drums Organ Synthesizer Music Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I am an avid music lover, performer, and teacher. I was lucky to study piano from a young age and have the amazing pre-collegiate experiences of appearing on MTV's Made and opening for the likes of McCoy Tyner, Chick Corea, and Bela Fleck. I then received a scholarship to Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA where I studied saxophone performance as well as piano, songwriting, and audio production. I then moved to San Diego, CA and opened for The Wailers, Nappy Roots, Eve 6, Steel Pulse, Shawn Colvin before touring the country. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I want to instill a passion for music in my piano students. To do this, I let each student progress at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lession and acknowledging the small accomplishments. By finding out what inspires a student, I can tailor my instruction to keep them engaged and eager to learn. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Clarinet
I’ve been teaching in some capacity for over 7 years. Currently, I teach private clarinet lessons full time to over 50 wonderful students. Also, I lead sectionals at several area schools and work with the nationally ranked Avon High School marching band. I encourage students to set their own specific goals to work towards. Above all, I aim to make lessons fun and positive so students enjoy learning and playing their instrument! Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Touch your instrument every day you eat. LOL! In all seriousness, it is better to practice a little bit for many days in between lessons, than just cram a practice session in the day before. ALWAYS practice the day of your lesson (right after) OR the next day to put into practice at home what you learned during the lesson.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
What I like is if your child can read, they are ready. I will take younger children, with parent involvement - and those lessons are more game based and introduction to the instrument rather than serious study.
When will I start to see results?
The more time you invest in your instrument and the more you practice the way the teacher asks you to practice, the sooner the results. I also tell students that I go as fast or slow as the student tells me, through the interactions at lesson. Some students go very quickly and learn quickly, others need more time.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My mother is in music, and you can say I was in music before I was even born. She is definitely an inspiration and a current teacher of mine in both piano, pedagogy, and business. My flute teacher is Gary Schocker, the more prolific living flute composer, and is absolutely a fabulous flute player! I have learned so much from him - and when he looked at me and said, "Why you can really play!" I think it changed my life!
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I chose flute since before I was born. The first instruments I recognized was piano (my mother's instrument) and flute. We think she composed a flute solo in her final senior orchestral composition project, which I must have attached to.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am most proud of being able to use my music no matter what was happening in life- from losing family members, to moving around the country since marriage, to raising 5 children. It has always been a part of my life, and I have always found places to play.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
One that comes to mind is a flute student of mine when I taught in Naperville, IL. The Catholic Church in town was very particular on who would play for important services, and one of the most important ones was the midnight mass on Christmas Eve/Day. She was chosen as a sophomore in high school to play in that orchestra, the only high schooler asked in the parish. I went into the crowded church and found a seat in a tiny corner. It was one of the most beautiful musical times I was able to enjoy!
