My teaching experience began in 2008, when I began teaching private lessons on various instruments, on voice, and on conducting. I later went on to teach band and choir at Cedar Bluff High School in 2011. After this, I volunteered as the band director at Valley Head High School in 2014. I have enjoyed every moment of teaching music and have taken so much from the experiences that I've had. If I was to emphasize anything about learning the art, it would be the understanding of interpretation and how to make any music into something that is uniquely yours. Read More

My approach to teaching is personal, flexible, and student-centered. I will start by finding out what the student knows already, and what the student wants to know. What kinds of music do they want to play, and why? (For instance: for fun; accompanying themselves singing; performing in front of people; becoming professional.) If the student can play some samples of songs they would like to learn, all the better. Along the way, some basics will surely be covered (chords, scales, basic music theory, various instrumental techniques). Read More

My primary student base is ages 4-16. I also have several adult students where I teach advanced vocal performance. I have taught two different hour long group vocal classes twice a week, one for ages 3-6, and the other for 7-10 year olds. On average, I teach around 30 lessons a week, mostly 30/45 minute sessions, and several hour long sessions in addition to my group classes. I specialize in advanced vocal instruction and talent development. Read More

The most rewarding thing is watching a student achieve their goals. Therefore I tend to help them set realistic goals for each lesson and allow them to progress at his/her own pace, all while having fun doing so. I acknowledge achievements and tailor my teaching to their needs, because I realize not one person is the same so neither is my teaching. Read More

My teaching style is based around having fun while learning important techniques. Some students will pick up a technique or a piece of music in one week, while another might struggle with the same piece for a whole month, and that's okay! I will never force a student to move on from something they feel less than great about, and with that ideology, I believe students gain the confidence that is so vital to the creative process of music making.

Learning proper vocal technique- Breathing, Posture, Positioning your mouth and tongue correctly, Music and facial expressions. Voice lessons we do 10 min of vocal warmups and 20 min of songs.

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Cello has a deep, rich, and beautiful sound with the potential for such a wide range of music, some of which has not even been written yet. I consider myself a musical explorer and, having already played piano for five years at the time, I took up cello to give myself more opportunities to dig deep into music.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
I think the hardest thing to master on any instrument is deep, vulnerable expression. Music is such an emotional art form and it takes a deep commitment from any musician of any skill level to evoke such a deep and personal performance.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
In teaching piano, I prefer to use the books by Faber&Faber. These were the books that I used growing up and I find that, especially for kids, they make learning piano that much more fun. In teaching cello, I prefer not to teach out of books but instead to gather many different materials from different sources and see what will help students make progress in the way that is clearest for them to understand. For example, some students learn better from Dotzauer than from Popper, or from Haydn than from Saint-Saens.
When will I start to see results?
Parents of previous students and even students themselves have told me that they knew their lessons were "working" because they would come home from their lesson and immediately want to go practice. If you are a parent of a student, you might not always see the results you're looking for until you see your student perform in a recital. "Results" is also such a widely-defined term that, in my opinion, it is different for every student.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Children tend to demonstrate musical interest from a young age, though you may need to look for it. If there are instruments in the house, let them play with them and see how they respond, or see if they play with them without your prompting. I started piano at five years old after a year or so of banging out unintelligible chords on the baby grand piano in my grandparents house and singing songs from church as if I was accompanying myself. Other children will go around humming or singing to themselves, or even banging out "drum beats" with kitchen items.
Other than having an apparent affinity for music, most children are ready for lessons when they are able to pay attention to something for more than half an hour to an hour at a time.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practicing for long periods of time does not equal practicing effectively or efficiently. If you target issues and the tools to solve them, efficient practicing could be done in less than an hour per day. Everyone practices differently, everyone learns differently, and what works for others (or what someone else tells you will work) might not work for you.

I'm looking for voice lessons for my 8-year-old daughter. She is currently taking piano lessons elsewhere, but we might be interested in changing to another teacher.
Jennifer
My 7 year old daughter is interested in voice lessons. She loves to sing . . . not so good at it right now! No choir in her school, so interested in options. Thank you!
Noelle
I'm hoping to grow in strength & precision, to further develop my ear for difficult harmonies, and to broaden the scope of musical styles I am able to proficiently sing.
