I began teaching piano when I was in eighth grade, teaching beginners. During my undergraduate years, I maintained a full private studio of beginning to intermediate students, and while living in Germany, I taught piano and voice at a private German music studio and in my home. The age range of my students has spanned from five to 70, and I enjoy teaching all levels of students. I have taught piano, voice, and composition to college level music majors. Read More

If my student has a more "just for fun" attitude, the lesson will inevitably be a more light hearted feel.

I typically start by working through the Essential Elements method book and introduce solos, ensembles, and orchestral excerps when appropriate.
