Instruments: Piano Voice Music Keyboard
I structure my lessons so that each student knows exactly what to expect each week. We begin with Warmups, Scales, Technique, Sight-reading in piano and/or voice. Then we move onto the literature, checking posture for both Voice and Piano. We recap, at the end of each lesson, so that any questions may be answered. We set goals for rehearsals, memorization, study requirements. I record vocal exercises, or accompaniment tracks for the student so that they are able to practice more efficiently. Read More

I like to equate learning any musical instrument to being a batter in baseball. The best batters still strike out, but when they hit that sweet spot, boom! Learning music isn't just about learning to play an instrument, but to develop yourself and your brain. I used to tell the kids in my music theater program, that they are the cream of the crop in school for taking a risk and showing themselves to the world. Read More

I am a fun loving and patient instructor who enjoys seeing my passion for music spread to different people. In 2012 I earned a Bachelors in Psychology with a minor in music from Northern Arizona University, and went on to complete a Masters degree in Music Therapy from Arizona State University. I have experience performing in academic orchestras, choirs, and guitar ensembles, as well as with song writing and performing in local bands. Read More

Nothing is more exciting than seeing one my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. " The slower you go, the faster you'll get there" - John Link Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I studied dance at the age of 6. My mom bought a piano for herself to learn to play. I would go to the piano and try to make up songs that I could dance to, which then lead me to take piano lessons for 15 years. Committment, joy, and passion are the keys to learning and growing as a music student. I enjoy teaching all styles, as well having students learn to arrange and express their own style within the piece they are learning. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
My approach to teaching is fun and nurturing,making sure students have a clear understanding of the fundamental principles of music,while encouraging individual student's own creativity and aural skills.I always inspire students to enjoy music and their musical instrument whilst developing their discipline to build self-esteem and help them grow socially and academically. During my lessons students work on their sight reading,technique,ear training and,of course I come up with fun musical games for younger beginners. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone Flute Clarinet
For piano students, I like to use the Alfred courses. This method is great because they have courses of study for all ages and levels, and students can progress through several courses throughout their study. For flute/clarinet students, I like to start with either Hal Leonard's Essential Elements or the Rubank methods books. Once students have moved beyond the basics, I like to introduce solo repertoire that is appropriate for their level. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Even more than practicing every day, it is important that students practice with their mind engaged. This means paying attention to notations in the music, reminders we have written on the page for both exercises and songs, and all the myriad aspects of posture and technique that we address in lessons.
Of course, practicing regularly and with high frequency will also help you develop quickly as well.
It is also important that, as daily practice volume goes past roughly 90 minutes, the student splits up practicing time into 45-60 minute chunks in order to avoid burning themselves out both mentally and physically.
When will I start to see results?
This depends on how much time you spend practicing each practice session, and how frequent those practice sessions are. Beginner students should practice every day if they want to see consistent, tangible progress. The amount of time spent practicing will also effect how much progress is made, as well. A bare minimum length for a practice session would be roughly 30 minutes, to allow the student enough time to warm up with technical exercises before moving on to working on the specific technical and musical challenges of whatever songs they are currently learning. Those students wishing to see more dramatic progress, especially early on, should aim to practice 60 minutes or more every day.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
My father plays the guitar as well. He had many classical guitar records that we listened to constantly when I was young. The guitarists we spent the most time listening to were Andres Segovia, Christopher Parkening, John Williams, and Julian Bream. They played a historical cross-section of music spanning genres from the 17th century all the way up to the 20th century, influenced by a variety of cultures. This music is what inspired me to pick up the classical guitar. I also love jazz music; we listened to jazz guitarists such as Joe Pass and Wes Montgomery constantly as well.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The illusion of continuous sound. Every time the instrument is plucked, the sound of any individual plucked note immediately diminishes. This is in contrast to a violinist or vocalist, to take two examples: both of those kinds of musicians can sustain a note, and even change its volume and tone as they sustain it. On the guitar, changing volume and tone can only be achieved over the course of playing several notes. Being able to change volume and tone in this way requires the student to address the issue as part of technical exercises I introduce or develop in lessons.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I currently have two degrees: a Bachelor's of Music, and a Master's of Music, both in Guitar Performance, both from the IU Jacobs School of Music. I am working towards a Doctor of Music in Guitar Performance at the same school. I have pursued performance degrees because it is my hope to pursue a career performing professionally in addition to teaching.
As part of all three degrees, I have taken and am taking rigorous classes in music theory and history. I have studied Baroque music quite thoroughly in two separate courses and intend to study both 16th and 18th century counterpoint in the next two years as well.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
