Voice Lessons in Helmetta, NJ

Instruments: Piano Voice

I love seeing my students succeed! One of my favorite things about teaching is watching the students eyes light up when they achieve their current goal! To achieve this, I like to teach at the students own pace and with their chosen material. While it is very important to practice, I do not want to make music seem like a chore. By allowing the students to choose their own material, they are much more likely to self motivate! Read More

Music and singing for me has always been like air. I love music and singing and sharing experiences through music. I am extremely passionate about the voice and love to help people to discover theirs to the fullest and most authentic potential. The voice is a very personal instrument, a fingerprint and I am passionate about protecting it and helping it soar to it's full beauty.

We also begin work on scales and cadences. Since dexterity and interest in exploring the keyboard usually exceeds note-reading ability. I use a chart to spell out scales and chords instead of a scale book at this point. Students enjoy progressing through the songs and ask for new scales. By the time they've completed "Teaching Little Fingers...." and have learned single-octave C major, A minor, G major and E minor scales, we're ready to move on to John Thompson's First Grade Book.

I have been teaching music in various capacities for approximately the last four years. My private studio has included both in-person and online lessons. As the music director of Smooth Progressions A Cappella, I worked with college students of various skill levels to produce an EP and an album. We sang everything from Irish folk ballads to Justin Timberlake. I was also the assistant music director for Kids of the Arts in New York City, putting on High School Musical with over thirty children ages ten to eighteen. Read More

My teaching experience is rather diverse. I started teaching private lessons thirty years ago and I always loved sharing what I knew with others. I've never stopped teaching private lessons, but I've also taught group lessons and music classes in private schools, I've taught adult classes and I've taught college classes at two schools in New Jersey. I like to combine fundamentals of music with showing students what I'm currently up to with the main goal of getting the student to be able to play what he or she wants to as soon as possible.

Since then, I auditioned for Kean University and got accepted into the music program and graduated with my Bachelor of Arts in Music with a primary in flute and secondary in vocal. Read More
