Piano Lessons in Morrison, CO

Instruments: Piano

I was offered my first piano teaching job 15 years ago, and have continued to teach ever since. I've taught children as young as 4 years old and first-time adults as old as 60. The most rewarding experiences I've had as a teacher include watching shy, young students consistently evolve into mature young adults who leap at the chance to perform in recitals or take on new challenges in their musical careers. I always encourage a sound sense of self-discipline when I teach lessons.

With my younger students I like starting out with Piano Adventures by Faber. I also like giving them songs that they know and like - that gets students excited about the repertoire they are learning. With older students I ask them which styles they prefer, and then we also find a suitable method for them. In general, I like giving students a variety of styles and pieces to keep them interested.

Instruments: Piano Voice

Lessons are geared to the individual student. I try to provide a warm and friendly atmosphere while providing a professional experience for the students. Theory is emphasized as well as technique for both the piano and voice student. Most voice students will get a basic knowledge of music reading skills while piano students tend to have a bit more in depth studies. I also use fun worksheets to help with the learning of theory which are based upon the season that we are currently in. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice Viola

I began teaching music while in college after a peer approached me looking for voice lessons in order to improve her ear training skills. I immediately enjoyed facilitating and witnessing the progress of my student and decided to take on additional students. When I moved to Colorado, I was making music more and more and missed teaching. That's when I was given the opportunity to teach a 2-month course in music production to students with very limited music experience. Read More

I graduated from East Carolina University in 2016 with my Bachelors of Music in Music Education. Since then I have taught in music studios, public school settings, and private lessons. Finding the individual way each student best understands and develops their ability and love for music is my specialty and I believe the best way to learn is while having fun! I have experience teaching students of all ages, from early elementary students to adults wanting to learn more. Read More
