My teaching experience began while in college. I taught private piano lessons while as a nanny for a year. In the 2017-2018 school year, I taught in Greensville County Public Schools as an elementary music teacher and enjoyed teaching my beginning students classical and modern music. I encourage my students to regularly practice their instruments (20 minutes a day) in order to progress in their musical journey. My main goal is to make sure my students are engaged. When teaching, I learn about my student's interests and go with the direction of what they are passionate about in order to make the lessons enjoyable. I use classical and modern music in order to motivate my student to practice and continue to learn. If a student isn't having fun in their lessons, then I am not doing my job! I am always looking to bring on new students of all ages!

For beginning piano/recorder students who are children, I start with Primer Level - Lesson Book: Piano Adventures and Recorder Karate. Once the student has grasped the fundamentals, I will begin to introduce solo repertoire appropriate for their first recital performance. For beginning voice students, I find out what the student is interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and fun, no matter their ability level. For adults, I will also learn more about their interests to keep them passionate about learning music.
