Voice Lessons West

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Ukulele

I aim to create a safe and open space for students to try, make mistakes, and make progress in a supportive environment. We laugh, we consider, and we seriously make beautiful music happen, often very quickly. I like to carve each lesson for what my students need, and it has a fun, experimental element: special technical exercises for your voice, listening and repeating work-outs for breath and pitch, and even more specifics for your goals.

For beginners, I firmly believe in establishing strong fundamentals. However, you can't spell fundamentals with out "fun"! So, even while building fundamentals, music lessons should be fun and geared toward what the student wants out of all of this.

Musical journeys are specific to the individual and therefore there is no one path that all students must follow. Read More

Instruments: Voice

I have been teaching voice classes and private voice lessons since 1976. I enjoy teaching all ages and delight in helping students develop their potential as vocalists and musicians while exploring the creative aspects of interpreting music of all styles. I encourage students to perform as frequently as they desire in recitals and competitions. I encourage students to compose their own songs. I enjoy working on one-on-one in lessons as well as small groups. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Music, Keyboard

My teaching experience dates back to my college days, as I began teaching private lessons almost 20 years ago, and have been consistently teaching students in my home studio, several Piano Academies, and students' homes. Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I like to emphasize for younger students, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument. I've also found that a combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy the piano and motivate them to practice and continue to learn. Read More
