I began teaching private voice when I was in college and also started to teach beginning piano and cello as I played piano for 10 years prior.

I always meet you where you are, so if you are just beginning singing then we start with the basics to make sure you have a good core to start with, if you are more advanced I like to learn what you know so far so nothing seems repetitive for you and I then incorporate techniques that will help you move to the next level.

My methods include playing by ear, learning the foundation and solfeggi. Read More
