Instruments: Piano Voice
Hello! My name is Emily and I am a new voice and piano teacher located in Mansfield, Texas. I just recently moved in August, 2019 from the Chicago Suburbs, where I have been singing and teaching music since 2007. Monday through Thursday I am currently teaching private voice lessons at Haltom High School during the school day. I specialize in teaching beginning to intermediate piano lessons (starting at age 3) and classical and musical theatre voice lessons (starting at age 10). Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Accordion Keyboard
I have been singing and teaching for over 30 years both professionally and for my own enjoyment. Singing is my passion, it is what I do. I have found that teaching someone to enjoy and express themselves through music is perhaps one of the most rewarding things I do. For the past several years I have had the privilege to teach within several school districts as a Private Voice Instructor. These districts include Arlington ISD, Grapevine ISD, Plano ISD and Lewisville ISD. During my time with Grapevine ISD I worked closely with Music Faculty in support of their program which included writing curriculum for the Music History program. I work closely with my students and their Choral Director to make the musical experience fun and rewarding. At the end of the school year the students perform in recital for their parents and friends. I am always very proud of my students as they demonstrate what they have learned and how much they have improved through the year. Read More

Hello, My name is England N. and I am a passionate and a self-motivated Music Teacher who has a joy working with students from all backgrounds. In 2021, I graduated from the University of Texas at Arlington with my Bachelor's in Music Education (EC-12). While I was there, I performed with the premier ensembles such as the UTA Jazz Orchestra, Wind Symphony, and the UTA Symphony Orchestra. In 2017, I got the opportunity to travel to Hawaii with the Jazz Orchestra and in 2019, I was selected to be apart of the Artist Class of the Southeast Trombone Symposium. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
My Grandmother inspired me to play piano. My church taught me to sing. In high school I was involved in band and choir and was selected to tour Europe with a college group. To this day I work with foreign exchange students. In college I continued my musical studies although I majored in Public Relations. This allowed me me to take classes such as oral interpretation and work in radio/TV which enhanced my performing skills. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Clarinet
For the beginners, hold a correct gesture, good handposition, or firm embouchure, and air support are some of the main requirements. When the students start to learn, adding upmore etude books, like Rubank Method, Rose Etude, Kell, Thompson, Byer, Just the Fact, Sonata, Concertos, Etudes...., and music from different genre would be presented at different timings. During the lessons, fine hand positions, great tone quality, good embouchure, fine posture and position would be the fundamental requirements and will be reminded at all time. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Recorder
I began teaching while I was still a student at the Conservatory of Music in the 1990's I was Voice Teacher at the Intermezzo Music School in Guaynabo, PR. I taught all ages from 7 - 69. I stayed there for 7 years. I also gave private singing lessons to students at my own home in Carolina, PR. And then, I proceded to give voice lessons at different churches like the Methodist Church (where I also founded and directed the choir), Evangelical Church (where I gave voice lessons at the Biblical Institute to prospect Worship Leaders).

Instruments: Piano
I started studying piano in my early teens and have continued studying all of my life. Even to this day I still practice 30-45 minutes every morning. I have played professionally all of my life as an accompanist for vocal and instrumental soloists, and having taught high school choral music for over 20 years, accompanied a variety of vocal ensembles. I have performed for weddings, banquets, parties, and civic gatherings, and have been my church's pianist and chief musician for the past 15 years. Read More
Instruments: Saxophone Clarinet Oboe
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I started playing clarinet because the private sax teacher I had during high school insisted that I learn. I'm glad I did. I'm not as accomplished on clarinet as I am on sax and oboe but I can hold my own on most pieces. If you want to improve your technique as a woodwind player, I highly recommend learning clarinet. I chose oboe while in the military because I wanted to get promoted. In the army at the time, oboe was a shortage instrument and saxophone was not so I started taking oboe lessons. I had no idea I would fall in love with the instrument.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Music did not run in the family I grew up in. I'm the only one of five children that play any instrument. My sister begged my parents for a clarinet then it sat under her bed for 3 months. My father used to say, "The only thing I can play is the radio." My children on the other hand are very musical. One of my daughters took guitar lessons for a while and was very good. Her teacher would end up staying an extra 30 minutes many times because he loved teaching her. As I mentioned in an earlier post my son Ruben is very good.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
As a military musician I was already being paid to play but I think the defining moment came when I saw friend's band performing in Germany. My friends R&B group was better than anything I had ever heard. I grew up near Atlanctic city and have heard awsome casino bands. My friends band was better. At that moment I sarted getting involve in different groups. When I retired from the army I started finding places to play. Within a couple of years I had work myself up to playing 5 and 6 nights a week.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
If I weren't a musician I would be a carpenter. I think carpenters are one the greatest professions around. Being able to take wood and build a house is an amazing thing to me. Then you have the specialist like cabinet makers. I met a master carpenter from Ireland many years ago, he made the most amazing cabinet with hand carved features with Teak panels. I love everything about carpentry, the smell of the different woods. The sanding, the staining, look of the grain. I guess making a woodwind instrument like an oboe, clarinet, or bassoon would kind of be like a master carpenter.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I have several favorites, I don't think anyone has just one favorite style unless they are the most boring person in history. I guess my first favorite to play would be R&B because that's what I grew up listening to. Next would be Jazz just because there are so many directions to go in. When I was around 28 years old I rented to movie Black Orpheus. Ever since watching that movie I have been in love with old Brazilian music. I'm talking about Jobim, Bonfa, Gilberto era Bossa Nova music. The genres I have mentioned are timeless. Every time I perform this music heads turn and start to nod to the beat.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I have several dream pieces of music I wish to perform. All of them would be to test my abilities. The first piece I would love to master and perform is by Yellowjackets, the piece is called "Out of Town." It's like a modern Bebop tune. Another piece is by Michael Franks call "You Belong to Me." It's not hard technically but its a Bossa Nova which is one of my favorite styles of music. Joshua Redman has a piece a called Hide and Seek. It's a just a blues progression but he wrote a Kick-A melody that would take me a few weeks to learn. On oboe one of my favorite pieces is Trios Pieces for Woodwind quintet. It just very challenging for oboe I love it1
