Voice Lessons King County, WA

Instruments: Voice, Saxophone, Clarinet

My PRIMARY goal is to instill a love for music in my students. My goal is for my music students to keep music in their lives so that it is an important part of their world, long after they are finished taking music lessons.  My teaching experience includes all levels, from Middle School to University levels and adult students.  I have taught Choir, Jazz Bands, Orchestras, Music History and Music Theory; as well as private clarinet lessons to students ranging from beginners to advanced college students.

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Synthesizer, Music, Keyboard

I began teaching piano and voice lessons in 1996 when I was a college student. I was trained to teach by the director of Studio 90 Music School in Massachusetts. I then went on to acquire my own students, and travelled around the greater Boston area teaching children and adults in their homes. I have also taught out of many local music stores. In 2009 I went back to school for Early Care and Education, which has greatly enhanced my skills and passion for teaching younger children. Read More

Every lesson begins with a check-in! How is life? What is going on? How are you? These are questions that are essential parts of our shared living experiences. Depending on what level students are working through in their development, we will spend time working on the physicality of technique: posture, healthy hand/arm/wrist practices, and breathing freely. The rest of the lesson will be simply an exploration of the music that we are working on together. Read More

Instruments: Voice

  I like to focus on healthy vocal production and breath technique. I utilize training in breath control and vocal exercises to expand the student's physical control over their instrument. I can conduct online lessons, but in person lessons are ideal to be able to fully hear, see and sense ambiently how the student's breath is functioning. I like to use the Kodaly solfege system as an eartraining tool to help the student navigate and learn new repertoire, and as a tool for improvisation. Read More
