Piano Lessons Southwest

Instruments: Piano, Voice

I'm a classical singer with a Bachelor of Music in Education degree from the University of Texas at Austin. Opera is my first love, but I also teach a wide variety of styles (musical theater, pop, country) as well as general vocal skills and musicianship. I perform in professional Opera (Austin Opera)and light Opera productions (G.S.S.A.). I also sing in more Folk/Americana styles on a regular basis for a local church. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Clarinet, Keyboard

I have been teaching music for almost a decade. I have taught everything from vocal and instrumental music to general music and music theory classes, both in group settings and 1-on-1. Although I greatly enjoy leading vocal and instrumental ensembles, both large and small, I love teaching private lessons because I can tailor each lesson to the individual student's needs. This allows the student to progress at a faster rate than they would in a group of students and also permits us to focus on the student's specific goals and interests. Read More

It touches the deepest and most inexplicable parts of us all, yet it can be simple enough for anyone to understand---even an unborn child. The principles of music have been proven to literally train a young brain to be receptive to complex learning, high levels of thinking and reasoning, and the mastery of numeration, sequencing, and calculation. Although every teaching experience is unique, my constant goal is to excellently open the door for the mastery of musical understanding and technique, as it brings about self-confidence, broadens self-awareness, fosters the development of intellect and nurtures a love of learning.

Instruments: Piano, Voice

My teaching experience began at the University of Tulsa. I taught voice to a few students who were non music majors for about a year. After graduating from the University of Tulsa, I began teaching at Brook Fine Arts Academy in Tulsa, Oklahoma. I taught over 30 students a week in both voice and piano (ages 3 to 20) for over a year. In my work as a teacher, I have helped students prepare for school competitions, studio recitals, talent shows, solo and ensemble contest, and musical auditions. Read More

Every student is different, so my teaching approach is rarely identical from student to student. Technical training progresses as a student develops motivation through his or her practice habits. I try to encourage practice through journal entry and self-accountability. I also try to make a student's home practice a little more exciting by setting goals and explaining what will be accomplished through achieving these short-term goals. Introducing new concepts while perfecting basic technique is how I try to captivate a student's attention and excitement for music. Read More
