When teaching guitar I often use the Hal Leonard Method for younger students. I am a big fan of the Berklee Modern Method books for those who learn a little faster. For piano I also have found several methods I like and often use the Hannon Piano exercise book as supplement. For voice I like to record the lessons so the student can practice what we've worked on at home. Read More

I enjoy success stories. As a teacher, I enjoy seeing my students successful. I try to take very little credit, especially in public, because ultimately, it is the students who get out on stage and put themselves on the line. As a professional singer, I understand what they need to do to succeed and will support them the best I can in fulfilling their dreams. We will work together to define what is wanted, the dreams and ideas, then we will put them into reachable goals. Read More

I have been teaching private music lessons since I was 18 and my International travels and performances have given me the opportunity to conduct master classes at some of the prestigious musical academies across Europe. Music truly is international. Now more than ever global music is available instantly through the advent of smart phones and the internet, as well as music throughout history. Still, it is a gift to have a passion for music and each individual is given their own path that they must follow. Read More

I continue to further my own studies with a marvelous teacher, Lauren Athey-Janka. I take much of her own teachings to incorporate it into my style. A big motto of hers is "Let me do the thinking for you!" Greater advice can not be given to a singer. If the work is put in, the trust must accompany it. Then, the singer's job is just to sing and trust! The teacher will adjust, rework, and advise! Read More

Nothing is more rewarding to me than playing a role in the artistic development of young singers. I love being able to help my students gain confidence in their abilities and reach their goals. One of my greatest goals as a teacher is to instill a lifelong love of music in each of my students. While singing takes practice and discipline, it should also be a lot of fun. I strive to create an encouraging environment where students can express themselves, embrace challenges, and not be afraid to make mistakes or try new things. Read More

For all students, I like to start by addressing short-term as well as long-term goals that the student is looking to achieve in learning their instrument.

I teach vocal technique to students of all ages and genres. For beginner students I work on each of their registers (chest voice, head voice, mix and flageolet) emphasising range and flexibility to begin with and then adding strength work as we progress. The student and I will choose repertoire appropriate to their level while still posing a challenge to apply their newly learned technique in the context of singing a song. Read More
