Instruments: Piano, Flute, Piccolo, Keyboard

Developing a passion for music and having the confidence to perform is why I love my job. I love seeing my students achieve goals. I believe setting goals and accomplishing them are important, so I support my students until the end. Being able to perform and having the ability to capture an audience, first starts with the performer. I believe gaining confidence through an instrument is possible. I encourage students to tell me their goals and dreams so I can do my best to allow them to come true. Read More

Instruments: Piano

I am passionate and highly motivated about music and teaching music. I have been studying piano for over 10 years now. I graduated from Weber State University (WSU) with a Bachelor's of Music in Keyboard Pedagogy. I have performed many times in solo and ensemble works in different settings during my education. I had the opportunity to perform a Bach Concerto for Two harpsichords with WSU's orchestra. I have always loved making music and sharing it with others. Read More

When I gave my first professional piano lessons in 2011, I knew that teaching will be something that makes me want to get up in the morning. During the last seven years, I have squeezed teaching piano lessons in between my undergraduate and graduate studies. Currently, I am teaching piano part-time alongside with my full-time job. I have taught students of all ages, levels, and musical backgrounds. One of the things I focus on is teaching a student according to their learning modality and helping them understand how they can learn faster and smarter. Read More

When working with beginning students who are children, I often will recommend the primer-level methods books by either Bastien or Faber & Faber, as well as a Notespeller book by Schaum.

Over the course of the child's music studies, we will add in pieces of music to learn, which will gradually increase in difficulty as the student gets better and better. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Violin, Keyboard

I love teaching piano and violin lessons to students of all ages from beginner to upper intermediate levels. I studied piano performance with Robert Smith and violin performance with Percy Kalt at BYU; I have also studied with Jeffrey Shumway, former Head of Keyboard Studies, BYU and Carroll Meyer, Boise State University. These wonderful teachers guided and inspired me to attain and pass on classical technique and style to the next generation of musicians. Read More
