Voice Lessons in Lyons, NJ

Instruments: Piano Voice

Assessment is the task during the first lesson. I must determine the student's voice type, and what style of music the student would like to pursue. If a boy's voice hasn't yet changed, I'll assess whether he is an alto or soprano. I'm a keen believer in teaching one to sightread and encouraging one to improvise with his/her instrument! For sightreading I shall introduce The Trinity College, Sound at Sight. Read More

For my piano students, I use different method and technique books in order to help my students learn the basics.  This includes how to properly read their sheet music so that they can pratice their skills by themselves.  I also use repetition and demonstrate different pratice skills so that my students can further advance their piano skills. For both vocal and piano lessons I do demonstrate difficult parts of the music in order to help my students understand the music selection that they are working on. Read More

We are learning together; I just provide the guidance and tools! Lessons are tailored to each student, and I love to structure lessons in different ways to add energy and intrigue to the lesson. I find it so helpful to set big goals at the beginning of each month, and then celebrate small successes along the way. Read More

Beyond what I've achieved personally, what truly makes my heart sing is teaching and sharing the joy of music. I'm really passionate about teaming up with local homeschools to give middle schoolers the chance to dive into music, especially if they don't have access to regular music classes. It's all about breaking down barriers and letting these eager minds discover their musical talents. On top of that, I bring my know-how to private teaching. Read More
