I started teaching in 2008 when I started college. I started couple of young students who were very beginners which was very fun! I love how creative young kids are. I learned a lot from my students. I also taught in music academy for a long time and it was totally different experience than private students teaching. I learned a lot about how to manage/teach many students in short amount of time.

Education is a central part of my life and will continue to be for my whole career. When I'm not teaching music, I teach English to kids living in China over the Internet! I have been teaching music for several years in individual, group and clinic settings. I recently graduated from the University of Iowa where I was lucky enough to study many different kinds of music. I became interested in Caribbean music and steelpan and through the University and had the great experience of competing in Panorama in Trinidad Tobago. Read More

For the past 30 years, I have been teaching students of all ages in my home and in their homes. I have had funny twin boys, serious adults who don't really care much for theory and teenage girls. I even was lucky enough to have as a student a young lady who was crowned Miss Colorado. When I began teaching, students always came to my home. There was a time I was teaching 50 students and had to have two separate recitals-it was great! Read More

I like to start off with all my students--whether adult or child--by finding what music they are passionate about. I then use that information to create a practice routing/repetoire that will drive each individual to practice and grow as a musician.

When a person decides to take steps to learn an instrument, most do so not realizing that they have within themselves something unique to offer. Whether it is to play for enjoyment or for a more serious endeavor, as the instructor, my goal is to learn what that unique thing is, and guide the student in their own journey to becoming the kind of player they envision to be. Therein lies the joy of being a music instructor. Read More

I like to first assess what is the primary goal of the student and progress from there. Teaching methods that are too strict or too generic can often leave a lasting impression on a student (and not a good one!) Thus, I attempt to make all students feel comfortable and secure - with an understanding that mistakes are necessary to progress forward. Read More
