I was a music education major at Roosevelt Univ. and have personal experience teaching all ages from grammar school to entry level college students.I have taught in private studios and traveled to students' homes. I teach various instruments from beginners to various levels of accomplishment and when a student has that bright light moment when something clicks, it's truly a pleasure moment. I teach more than just an instrument,I teach music.This helps a student move forward and discover things on their own, such as how to play what they create in their head and how to get that to their instrument which is what communicates to an audience.

The most important philosophical concept about private lessons is this: proceed in a way that will maximize your potential to achieve an excellent goal that you can call your own. Although I am not limited to one method book or another, I typically use Arban's for trumpet lessons - with other books and repertoire along with it. My background is Suzuki violin, followed by music literacy and transposition. So, whatever method book we select, we must consider basic furthering of direct musical perceptions, in addition to achievement of stated goals. Read More
Instruments: Voice
I emphasize with students that the goal is to find their own unique voice, and not an imitation of another singer or a more mature sound than their age healthily permits. Consistent practice goals and body awareness are key as students learn how to harness their voice! Read More

In my last semester at Butler, I student taught at Avon High School for band and Franklin Township Middle School East for choir. Responsibilities at the former included sole direction of Concert Percussion, intermediate Symphonic Band, and AP Music Theory, and at the latter 7th Grade General Music and 8th Grade Mixed Choir. While at Butler, I was also principal clarinetist of both the Butler Symphony and the Butler Ballet Orchestras, and at one point principal of the Wind Ensemble as well. Read More

For the past 20 years, I've studied and performed with keyboards, guitars and woodwind instruments while exploring a very wide variety of music ranging from classical and rock to jazz and avant-garde. Expanding and sharing that knowledge with other people in a helpful and friendly manner is something that I consummately enjoy- especially if they're beginning where I once was. My education includes a Bachelor of Music in Music Composition from DePaul University, and I've been working on my Music Education Certificate at UMSL since August 2014. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I have had five years of music teaching experience and I am interested in the music education substitute position. I have had 11 years of performance experience in musical and opera productions as well as singing lead and playing keyboard in bands and ensembles. I have a passion for music and a desire to help youth, using music as the bridging vessel. No student walks into a school being a blank slate, so it is important to consider their backgrounds, musical and cultural, when finding teaching approaches and building upon the knowledge they have already acquired.

I am a singer, violinist, and songwriter that thoroughly enjoys helping students get closer to music and find their sound. Over the past 10 years, I have fronted multiple bands and I have backed or recorded for other artists such as Prateek Kuhad (NYC/Indie - singer-songwriter), Baby Alpaca (New York City - soul pop), The Vampyre Bunnies (New York City - punk rock), Valley Shine (Los Angeles - folk pop), Orlando Vick Jr. and Divine Glory (New Jersey - gospel).

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A normal practice session for me can span from 20 minutes to 2 hours. I usually start by setting up the room in a way that allows for the most movement (I like to pace and wave my arms around like a crazy person sometimes). After maxxing out my movement space, I'll then sit/stand and start to warm up, which those exercises vary depending on what kind of repertoire I'm practicing that day. After getting warmed up, I'll start just running my pieces full-send, circling/noting places that I'm not as confident on and I can return to when I'm done. After that, the rest of the time is spent isolating sections and chunking them together to eventually attempt another (and more improved!) full-run.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Probably a professional dogwalker or cheerleader! It would be a dream to get paid for my two passions outside of music: pets and cheer.
When will I start to see results?
While you might not see results that say you're a professional, depending on the goals you'd like to achieve, you can start seeing results around the 2nd or 3rd lesson! Smaller goals allow for more achievements, and more achievements mean seeing larger and larger results the longer you work at it.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
I think confidence and strength is the hardest thing to master on my instrument, voice. The voice is such a uniquely individual instrument, and there are endless ways to make a "beautiful" sound, yet there's always an element of competition and comparison. While trying to be unique comes with the territory of having an instrument no one can see, finding one's own HEALTHY & STRONG sound is the real challenge. Using common techniques and exercises is the first step to getting your own sound and finding YOUR voice, once you are confident in your skills, using that confidence is the most critical step in finding your strongest sound!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
This depends on what you'd like to use lessons for! If you want your child to simply learn basic musical knowledge, I think the time to start lessons is when they can soak in and repeat knowledge back to you.
If you'd like to start lessons to create a career path in music, I believe that any child that loves using their voice to discover the world around them (singing, speaking, yelling, echolalia, etc.) is ready to start lessons. Taking lessons doesn't inherently mean you want to become the next Broadway star (although we can definitely work with that!), it can also just mean you want to find the voice that can make the most difference in the world around you.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Chunk your time! The average focus time expires around 40 minutes, so practicing for 30 minutes and then having timed brain breaks before going back to practicing helps to maintain a healthy focus within your practice session! I personally like do something completely irrelevant from music in my brain breaks. Sometimes I'll go on a small walk, answer some texts/emails, or just stare at the wall-- just anything that isn't my repertoire!
