Instruments: Piano Voice
Hello! My name is Emily and I am a new voice and piano teacher located in Mansfield, Texas. I just recently moved in August, 2019 from the Chicago Suburbs, where I have been singing and teaching music since 2007. Monday through Thursday I am currently teaching private voice lessons at Haltom High School during the school day. I specialize in teaching beginning to intermediate piano lessons (starting at age 3) and classical and musical theatre voice lessons (starting at age 10). Read More

I believe communication is of the upmost importance. I communicate with parents to let them know how the student is doing, what we are working on, and what to do next. As mentioned above, I tailor to my student's needs based on their understanding and pace. Some students move a little slower than others in certain areas, and some move faster. For example, one student of the same age may understand sheet music quickly, but have a hard time with scales. Read More

I am very passionate about tailoring each lesson and even the way I approach each student to that student's skill level as well as personality. I am invested in my students' lives and endeavor to make sure that my studio is a place where they feel understood, appreciated, and safe. I allow students to have an active role in selecting their own repertoire so that they find pieces they really adore. Read More

I am a fun and passionate teacher when it comes to music. When attending college for my performance degree I had thought that I would not want to teach others and just focus on performing. And as much as I love to perform I have found a love for passing along my enthusiasm and knowledge of music. I have worked as a Pre-K teacher for 7 years before deciding to try to make giving lessons a full-time thing, which I am still working towards. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
I think music making is the most appealing part of learning to play a new instrument. This is why I try to make every new concept Iteach as appealing and as fun as possible. For example, if in day one I am teaching two notes, I like to have as much fun with those two notes by making a song or a game out of them. In this way my students are able to engage in music and have fun while they are learning. Read More

Since each student begins and progresses at a differing pace, I strive to create realistic goals for each student at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments along the way always help to improve their desire to learn more. My goal is for the student to enjoy the learning experience as much as I enjoy the teaching experience! This, in turn, leads to a student's increased self confidence as a musician. Performing in a recital or other venue reinforces the student's progress and ability to communicate through music.

I usually see what level the student is on and we go from there. The age and interest of the students will also tell me which way to go in the lesson. Usually with beginner students the Hal Leonard book is a good place to start but I'm willing to start with any beginning book. If the students are just interested in one specific thing then we focus on that. Read More

When will I start to see results?
If starting from the beginning, students can gather an understanding of basic concepts of music theory and areas of musicality in a matter of weeks. Results also depend on how exposed a student is to these concepts and if they enjoy the process. It's not good to force it but to encourage through example such as showing the results of other's progress. Hearing good music is also a motivator. So, playing music at home can reinvigorate interest. If you have a musical family, that also plays a role in their development.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
From a young age, I became absorbed in listening and mimicking radio songs. I went on to perform in middle school, high school and college because, along the way, I met older professionals whose talent I saw as a spectacle of achievement. I voraciously watched YouTube videos of classical trumpet players, pianists, singers, and composers from around the world. So, the radio taught me as a young child, my middle band director held me accountable to practice, my high school directors pushed me scholarship tryouts, and my college directors pushed me to crafting a career in it. That is why I am here now.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practice to the extent of mastery you want to have over something. You might have a pop song that you can pick up quickly or a four-movement classical suite. The amount of time and attention depends on the length and difficulty. The areas of performance musicality you want to master are pitch, timbre, dynamics, physical constraints of phrasing, and memory. The areas of recording musicality you work on are tracking consistency with repetitions, arrangement audio mixing, production effects and the final file quality download. Practice until you become satisfied with these areas of mastery prior to performance and recording and then keep it up to the extent that you want to maintain that same quality achieved.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Usually, a child will begin to show signs of musical curiosity by tapping to the rhythm of a song they like, singing along, talking about music or becoming very absorbed in it. They may even ask for an instrument themselves. Early signs show around age 5. But introducing a toy instrument to children even younger such as pots and pans nurtures that instinct too. A typical musician's progression goes from listeners, to sing alongers, to playing by ear, to notation readers, to instrumentalists, to performers, to composers, and to teachers and recording artists.
