Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Ukulele Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
As a teacher, I am all about developing a passion for music and setting realistic musical goals for each lesson. I try to gently push my students in the right direction by finding out what kind of music really inspires them so I can tailor my instruction to their desires. However, if you're my student, I have high hopes and expectations for you! I know that with consistent practice, patience, and a gentle push in the right direction, we work together to learn any piece of music. Read More
Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone Bass Guitar Synthesizer Euphonium Tuba Keyboard
I am a young attentive teacher who bring a lot of fun to the lesson. I have performed all over the country with various groups I graduated from Norfolk State University in 2015 with a Bachelors of Music in Media. I have had the chance work with a lot of young talent in the DMV area Read More
Instruments: Piano Trumpet
I love to teach. I love sharing the knowledge and experience that I've accumulated over the years as a Musician. For me the best part is opening my students eyes to the possibilities music has to offer. Its very rewarding to see them grow and not only achieve the goals we set together but to become continually curious about music and life. I love to encourage my students yet I also am not afraid to let them know when they're veered off of the path. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I started teaching private lessons when I was in college. During my masters program, I also taught chorus. I have taught private lessons for more than 15 years since I first started. I teach all different levels from beginners to advanced levels, and I have also taught student between the ages of 4 and 80. Classical music for me is the foundation which can help students with many techniques. Using techniques rooted in Classical music can enable the student to be able to sing, play or even compose other style of music. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I'm a passionate and motivated instructor who loves working with students and sharing my love of music. I graduated from George Mason University with a Master in Vocal Pedagogy and Bachelor of Music degree in piano and voice. I have the Artist Diploma in Vocal Performance at The Royal Conservatoire of Monaco. I was the Semi-Finalist of NATS, singing fluently in Italian, German, French, Latin and Korean. Performing all over the Northern Virginia and several states has been one of the greater experiences of my life as a musician, and I've had the opportunity to play both at the Performing Arts Concert Hall in Virginia, as well as music teacher as several performances as the principle director/pianist with Va Youth Orchestra.

Instruments: Piano Flute
I have been teaching music for over 15 years. My lessons are very specific and similar in structure and format. Regardless of which direction the student wishes to take their musical development, a foundation of classical training is mandatory. I teach classical piano and flute but have opened up the lessons to include pop, rock and jazz on occasion. I am patient yet strict. I temper my expectations of excellence to fit my perception of my student's capabilities. Read More
Instruments: Piano
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I'm proud of receiving a music award before my graduation and for having the opportunity to play for the senior prong in high school. I'm proud for the opportunity that I had in playing for both the school and the church choir and for playing for the two dance schools. What I'm most proud of is help bringing the talent out of my students so that they can bring joy to their families and those around them. I'm grateful for their love for music and for their hard work. My life has been bless through my students.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Not at this point. Most of my students are still in school. One of my students has started taking violin this year. Her teacher was impressed what she already know and move her up to advance. My older students started late in life. They range from their 50's through their 70's.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
My instructor kept after me on this one thing. He said, "Read your Notes Sandra". I had a bad habit of memorizing and picking things up by ear. It also took me a little longer to learn my classical music.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I mainly use the Alfred Series. I looked at the different materials and it seems like the Alfred Series is more detail and has some excellent tunes for the kids to learn.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
The practice session would mainly be studying and working through the assignments. The assignments would not be too lengthy but would be at the pace the student can learn. The lesson would be cater to them.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have no degree, but a lot of experience. My instructor taught me a wide range of music which included improvising, ear training, sight reading, chord structure and dynamics. He taught me to compose as well as to read what's written. He was the one who got me my first job at the dance school when I was just in High School.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
The Holy City is my favorite piece. The music is beautiful and the words are inspiring. My other favorite selection is O Holy Night. Both of these selections tell of Christ and that is why they are my favorite songs.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I would probably just be working in the office doing clerical work.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Spiritual and Rock music is my favorite style/genre of music. The reason is because they are uplifting and I enjoy playing them. Classical music is my other favorite style of music. I feel a deep respect for the great artists who compose them. Last of all, Country Music is another one of my favorite styles of music. When I play Country Roads, I feel a part of nature and this beautiful world that we live in.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I learned Organ, because at the time, an organist was needed at my church; however, my specialty is piano.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Aunt Jean, my mother's sister was the organist and soloist for her church. My grandfather on my mother's side played violin when the folks square dance. He was known as the best violinist in the State of Michigan. My daughter had the opportunity to sing a couple of solo's for church when she was growing up.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I became a professional musician years ago when a family heard me played. The parents wanted me as their piano teacher for their children. I taught all three kids in the family. They recommended me to others and the word spread. I'm now teaching 23 students.
