I take one lesson at a time while careful to scaffold the information. I want students to improve, but I also want them to know what it is that they must do in order to become a competent musician. I can be tough, but at the same time, I don't mind changing directions and moving from say, ear training to sight reading or some other approach. At the base, I believe that rhythm is the most important concern for a student. Read More

When the child is at a young age, I incorporate curriculum that targets ear-training and listening, reading, rhythmic awareness and time-keeping, and theory. Read More

TRAINING - 10 years of formal training—4th grade through my freshman year of college. I broke my thumb and the medical technology could not reconstruct the joint. Thus my professional career as a piano player had to end, however, I continue to enjoy piano and would like to share this wonderful gift with others! My Bachelors in Accounting and my Masters in Organization Management have some transferable disciplines that easily flow into the music arena: Accuracy and Teaming—these are both vital whether one is playing as a duet or in a band with over 100 members!

I love to see my students grow and develop as their passion for music increases. I facilitate this by giving examples of goals that they can reach and examples of different styles and genres that they can immerse themselves in. By doing this students see that playing and possibly mastering an instrument is not just about discipline and practice but about a high level of expression and communication. The reward my students feel from being able to accomplish this instills in them great joy and pride and motivates them to work at other things in life the same way. Read More
