Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice

I think music making is the most appealing part of learning to play a new instrument. This is why I try to make every new concept Iteach as appealing and as fun as possible. For example, if in day one I am teaching two notes, I like to have as much fun with those two notes by making a song or a game out of them. In this way my students are able to engage in music and have fun while they are learning. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice

I firmly believe that every serious student of music will eventually discover their unique gifting. I feel that most aspects of music can be taught to anyone, but as their education progresses, the student and their family will begin to see the areas in which they truly excel. I have found it very rewarding to see what emerges as the "rough stone" of a musician is polished with training and loads of encouragement! Read More

I focus on indvidualizing the lesson to the student. Every student has different goals, dreams, and personalities. I typically use the Faber Books for piano, Hal Leonard for guitar and ukulele, and I work in sight-reading with my voice students. I also work in music theory when appropriate, and enjoy explaining the "why" behind how music works. I'm also a singer-songwriter and have tunes on Spotify Apple Music. I write and produce my own songs and have had my compositions performed frequently. Read More

Hot cross buns, then to Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, I believe in playing songs that are familiar and progressing to more advanced material after you have been playing for a while and your ear is trained to hear the notes before you play. As a kindergartener playing trumpet in the mid 70's, I now get to share my love for this instrument to others, won't you come learn. PIANO: I began teaching piano private lessons to a few of my students in Whitney, where they grew in their ability to play, beginning students always seem to do well, when they apply what they have been given to learn.
