Piano Lessons in Woodland Park, CO

Instruments: Piano

I generally choose to use Faber as a method book for all my beginning students, using the age appropriate track for each student ranging from too young to read yet to adult learners. I believe that both the lesson book and the theory books are highly important and necessary. Depending on the student and their wants and needs, other books for each level may be added. Once a basic comprehension of reading music and technique have been achieved, I like to branch out into other repertoire of whichever style or styles are most interesting to the student. Read More

My methods would slightly vary on what goals the student is trying to achieve. However, all musicians must have a basic grasp of technique and fundamental skills in order to express music the way they would like to. Beginning with an overall assessment of technique is essential, and working to maintain and expand that level of proficiency is important for instrumentalists. After a routine has been established for warm ups and extension, I like to incorporate those skills into songs, pieces, or repertoire. Read More

Otherwise, what’s the point! In 2016, I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts and Sciences degree in Guitar with an emphasis in music composition. In addition to performing guitar, I am a singer-songwriter, and composer. These skills offer a unique ability to cross-connect with multiple genres ranging from Modern Pop-Rock to Contemporary Christian Music, and from Classical to Flamenco, performing either on classical, flamenco, acoustic, or electric guitar. This added versatility to my performing experience has opened many opportunities to perform in various venues and groups throughout the Twin Cities area, neighboring states, and abroad in South America and Mexico.

I began teaching music lessons before I actually graduated with my degree in Music Education! In college, I gave voice lessons to fellow students regularly and lead many rehearsals and after school music camps for elementary and middle school aged students.

After graduation, I taught in a music studio focusing primarily on piano students and guitar students of a wide age range. Read More

I like for each of my students to move at their own pace, and if it takes you longer to learn something than it does your friends, so what? You both learned it, which is what's important. But if we try to move on before the student has adequately learned something, it'll just lead to discouragement and stress. You as the student want to stretch yourself, not snap in two. Read More
