Instruments: Piano Voice
My teaching experience has been with my church choir. I started out as the accompanist and helper. A year or so later I found myself in the conductor's seat. For two years I worked with my church's choir to bring out the best that they could be, and to bring joy to the congregation. Not only did I conduct the choir, but I was their accompanist as well. I tried to bring a mix of old and contemporary to the table because I believe being a well-rounded musician. Read More
Instruments: Voice
I believe that private voice instructions demands a tailored and customized approach to each individual student and his or her voice. As such, much of my instruction is based on what I hear happening in the singer's voice that moment. However, I have many exercises and resources to aid in the lessons. The first few lessons may seem tedious, as I usually spend this time becoming familiar with my student and his or her voice. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I am a native of Russia. In 2001 I moved to the United States. In 2005 I became a US citizen. I studied music for seven years to earn my Bachelor of Arts degree in vocals and piano. I studied six more years in conservatory to obtain my Masters degrees in music performance and education. I love to teach and to see my students progress in their musical studies. I enjoy communicating with my students and their parents, if applicable. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
For piano students just starting out, I like Alfred’s basic piano library, and the Bastien piano basics. There are several other piano courses I’m excited to try as well. For both piano and voice students, I like to include a book of tunes with which the student is familiar: movie tunes, Disney songs, etc. For older students, I will focus a little more on the different time periods of music and help them to gain an appreciation for each.

Instruments: Voice Drums Orchestral Percussion
I have experience in teaching voice and drums, dating back to my last semester in college. I have been able to teach young kids the absolute privilege of singing and performing. I really encourage my students to keep practice and warm up times at the top of their priority list. Improving your voice and performance abilities starts with warming up. I also encourage them to enter as many competitions as they can, as well as auditioning for as many shows across the country as they can, so that they can be noticed and people can see what they can do!

Instruments: Piano Voice Synthesizer Keyboard
My teaching experience started in High School when I would exchange piano lessons for guitar with a musician friend of mine. My formal teaching experience began in Atlanta 5 years ago when I co-taught group keyboard lessons for beginner elementary school students and taught adult beginner voice students through my in-home studio. I took this experience back to my home town of Iowa City where I traveled to teach beginner adult piano and beginner adult voice and taught beginner-early intermediate piano and voice through a local music lessons studio.

Instruments: Piano Voice
I believe each student has unique gifts. I love watching my students thrive by encouraging self-exploration as we learn about music. If a student loves playing by ear, we seek knowledge of composition more, if they are inspired to play Star Wars, we add that to the repertoire. If a good solid foundation is built through the sequential lesson books along with motivating material, retention is higher. Encouragement of progression at his or her own pace by understanding each students gifts, along with realistic goals and practice, aids in well rounded musicians. Read More

Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
I come from a long line of singers and instrumentalists. Many of my family members are recording artists as well. My grandparents were well known Gospel artists back in the day and I have many relatives that were well known instrumentalists. I am following the footsteps that have walked before me.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I think I would still be teaching, but teaching general education instead of music.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
My favorite style/genres to sing are Neo Soul and R&B, however, I love to surprise people by singing Opera, Classical and Tejano because they do not expect me to know how to sing those styles.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I knew at age 12 that I wanted to be a professional musician. It was a defining moment for me after overcoming my fear of singing solo. I realized how much I enjoyed singing solo in front of a crowd. I immediately became hooked and since then, I have always looked forward to (and hustled for) the next opportunity.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have a bachelor's degree in Vocal Music.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I would love to perform a piece by Selena Quintanilla. Her songs are in Spanish and I like to challenge myself to learn the lyrics and style. In college, students were never required to learn songs in Spanish and I would love to change the trajectory of that.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am most proud of being a recording artist and songwriter. People around the world are hearing songs that I either was on vocally or have helped to write.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Singing has been a part of me since I was two years old. It is an indescribable feeling to get up in front of a crowd and share your heart through song.
When will I start to see results?
Everybody is different and starts at different starting points. If a student is consistent in attending lessons and practicing at home, results will come rather quickly. If results don't come immediately, I like to say to stick with it a little longer. Some things take a little more time.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
I believe that a parent/guardian should have a conversation with their child about lessons before signing up. It'll be more enjoyable for a child that wants to be there than a child who is being forced to take lessons.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practicing should be fun! All too often, practicing feels like a chore when it shouldn't. Students should take notes during lessons and choose 3 things to work on during their at home practices. Especially when it comes to technique. Don't overwhelm yourself with the amount of hours practicing. A few minutes a day is just as effective (if not more) than 5 hours of practice a day.
