Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Flute, Piccolo, Oboe, Music, Acoustic Guitar

For beginners, I start off with the basics. For example, naming each string on the guitar, curvature of the fingers, embouchure on the headjoint of a flute, and achieving a crow on an oboe reed. For school age children, I use books or sheet music used in their own practice at school or Youth Orchestras during lessons. For any ability level, I use any materials during lessons that my students want to work on that achieves their goals but also keeps them motivated. Read More

I have always enjoyed helping others understand complex musical concepts. Often times people are naturally intimidated by musical concepts such as chord substitutions or even just sight-reading in different, unfamiliar keys. I thoroughly enjoy helping students understand that they should not be intimidated by such concepts and that it is entirely possible for them to learn complex musical concepts.

I have taught pre-K through adult instrumental and vocal music. I have taught Jr. High and High School Band. I presently am teaching in Gibson County as a part time public school music teacher since I retired from full time service over 2 years ago. (I just couldn't stay away from it!) Since I started there, I have also been hired by the high school band to be one of their brass instructors. Read More

I am a very creative minded and passionate person when it comes to music! Before deciding to pursue my Contemporary Music degree in 2012, I had been an active guitar player, drum player, and singer for regular church services. Today, my focus is on sharing that same passion for music with others in order for them to express themselves in a unique way. I have been blessed with the opportunity to play with many bands and artists such as Colton Dixson, Robinson Park, as well as recording many others! Read More

My method for teaching is individualization. All my lessons are individualized for each student's ability level and musical interests. If need be, I use certain books to supplement my lessons and for personal at home practice. Normally I only recommend books to students that want to further their understanding and ability in sight-reading, drawing from my own experiences learning from various books and online sources. I often encourage my students to learn songs instead of just focusing on exercises and technique. Read More
