Instruments: Voice
I'm a passionate instructor that focuses on each individual's goals needed to further their love for music or to be audition ready at all times. I graduated from the University of Louisville with a degree in Music performance, emphasis in voice and have continued my career with music. I believe my students will learn at their highest potential by personalizing each lesson around what they need. For example: if a student is interested in auditioning for College or specific ensembles or groups, I will incorporate the audition requirements into the lesson so they feel adequately prepared when they walk into their audition.

I ask all of my students to be prepared for their lessons with a notebook and pencil for lesson notes and assignments. I ask them to bring any materials they have and will often recommend books and supplemental material I have had success with. I believe in writing down notes that help students understand what they are learning, exactly what students should practice, and setting goals for their practice and overall progress. Read More

I began teaching music at the age of 15, primarily guitar and piano lessons for beginners ages 7-14 in my hometown of Parker, CO. At 16 I began teaching my students basic music theory and intermediate instrumental instruction. I moved to Boston in 2012 to pursue an undergraduate degree in Songwriting from Berklee College of Music in Boston, still actively teaching throughout my curriculum. I have now taught over 200 students ages 4 to 64 a wide variety of music-related subjects, including: piano, guitar, bass, voice, music theory, D.A.W. and notation software, and contemporary songwriting.

Instruments: Guitar Voice
I started performing music at age 14, and quickly move on to semi-pro and professional status, performing pop, rock, country, folk, and more in various bands and performing groups. After graduating from the University of Northern Colorado with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music and Theater, I joined the cast of Up With People and began a world concert tour, performing on awesome stages, such as the Royal Albert Hall in London.

Instruments: Piano Voice
I have been teaching since 1980. I am originally from North Carolina and moved to Colorado in the 80s. I am a member of National Music Teachers Association, Colorado State Music Teachers Association and Foothills Music Teachers Association. I have taught both at the private and public school levels and teach students beginning at age 5 through adult level. I have sung with Charlotte Opera, Jacksonville Opera and the Lakewood Chorale as soprano soloist. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Voice Ukulele Mandolin Acoustic Guitar
I'm a singer and multi-instrumentalist (specializing in guitar) with over 20 years of experience as a performing songwriter, band member, and choir director. I graduated from Brandeis University in 1999 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music. I have played a wide variety of musical styles on guitar (acoustic and electric), mandolin, piano, ukulele, and percussion. I have toured in more than 30 states in musical acts performing for both adults and children. Read More

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

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.

Rachel
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.
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.
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!
