Instruments: Piano
The most important thing for me is to see my students could find their favorite pieces and develop a passion for music, that's the basis for them to progress at their pace. Also, I will help to set up weekly goals for my students, to encourage them to arrange their practice. So during that process, they will recognize the importance of accomplishments and encouragements to keep their passion for music, to desire to learn more and make more progress on the path. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
All children are different and are progressing at their own pace.Most important for me is to see that they enjoy making music at any level. Another important thing for me is to remind my students to practice with a good posture and poise.This will ensure that they look as a performers and enables them to practice and perform for much longer periods of time. I teach my students to be creative during their lessons and home practice,this makes practicing fun and study of music enjoyable and rewarding. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I am classically trained piano and voice instructor with more than 30 years of international teaching and performing experience. I have a degree from the Lithuanian State Conservatory and utilize both classical European and contemporary American styles in her teaching practice. I believe that to teach is to touch a student's life forever. For many years me and my late husband were volunteers for PBS, the Orpheum Theater, and the Scottsdale Center for the Performing Arts and Arizona opera. Read More
Instruments: Piano Clarinet Recorder Bassoon Keyboard
My teaching experience dates back to my college days, as I began to my internship and student teaching at elementary and high schools around the valley. I like to include my students' opinion when planning their lesson curriculums. I don't believe in lesson plans that don't allow flexibility and providing the students with opportunities to pick repertoires they are interested in. I've also found that using technology and fun music games the iPad as well as performing along with students can go a long way in helping students to stay motivated and continue to learn. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Trumpet Trombone Clarinet Synthesizer Ukulele Recorder Euphonium Keyboard Acoustic Guitar
Noone is perfect, not even the teacher. The connections I make with my students also helps me guide them during instruction, and to think about and choose material they also might like. All of my students choose personal musical projects to work on and when they are ready to present I give them the opportunity to do so. One aspect of private lessons that is frequently missed is the importance of things ear training and music theory. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin
Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace with the encouragement of the teacher to encourage their musical goals with a consistent desire to progress. No two teachers teach in the same way, just as no two students will learn in the same way. A teachers style is based on their educational philosophy. Read More
Instruments: Voice Music
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I knew ever since I was a child that I was meant to be a professional singer. I even had dreams ever since I was younger about me performing music, my parents have my sisters and I on vhs tapes singing and playing the kiddy piano, and I had a heavenly encounter where I was singing in heaven in beautiful clothing.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Honestly, for me it is very hard to pick a favorite genre because I love them all, and I listen to and sing all genres. I will say however that I have a preference for music in other languages.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Music definitely runs in my family on my mother and father’s side. Music, performance, acting, and the arts in general go back generations on both sides.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A normal practice session for me starts with breath work, stretches, relaxation exercises, vocal warm ups, choosing repertoire, working on my theory workbooks, working on my piano, and I teach myself piano and other fun vocal things.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
If I was not a singer I would probably be working in the sciences. I love all types of sciences like the sciences of human behavior, the human body, plants, and animals.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
My degree is in vocal performance. I did however, play piano off and on through out the years. And I work on my musical theory books.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
My dream piece to perform is “The Magic Flute,” “The Queen of the Night.” One of the four languages that I speak is German. And the Magic Flute is in German, and I love the high notes.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am most proud of the superior ratings that I have received from recitals, I have done many performances, and I have a lot of views on social media.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
My hope is that when I start teaching my students will win competitions. I don’t currently have any students right now but, with hard work and practice there will be many wins.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
I think that sometimes it can be difficult to grow your range and develop confidence in your self and your instrument. These are things that I continue to work on daily. And it is hard not to compare myself with others as well.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I have developed some of my own methods. For example, I have learned animal sounds in order to strengthen and stretch my range. I was surprised at how many animals and birds make sounds that sound like the human voice.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I chose voice as my instrument of choice because I love to sing. I am also a dancer and I put my dance and singing videos on YouTube and TikTok.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
A teacher that I had from junior high all the way up to my age now inspired me to continue with my music. This teacher of mine has unfortunately passed on but, he taught me many wonder things that instilled a sense of pride in my many cultural backgrounds.
When will I start to see results?
I don’t try to put a time limit on a student’s improvement because it depends on the student. I can provide the students with all the tools necessary however, the students must practice applying them.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practice and repetition are of upmost importance. I also love the fact that social media provides challenges that help the students improve in many areas. I would have the students do fun challenges to help them improve vocal quality and range.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
You know by assessing the personality and the levels of the student. I also think that she and personality play a big role. For example, a child can be too young to begin lessons.
