Voice Lessons Monroe County, IN

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Music

Hello! I just graduated from Indiana University's Jacobs School of Music in 2019 with a Bachelors degree in Vocal Performance. I have been in over 60 productions in my life, including concerts, operas, operettas, musical theatre performances, and talent shows. I absolutely love singing and am very excited for the opportunity to start teaching! I have had extensive training in my craft, and have been taking voice lessons for 12 years. I am classically trained, but am very interested in other genres, such as rock, punk, alternative, and musical theatre styles of singing. Read More

As a teacher, there is nothing more rewarding than seeing a student develop a passion for music. If my students do not leave every lesson feeling inspired, encouraged, and wanting to practice and play music, then I am not doing my job. Just as I tailor each lesson to match the individual student, expect the student to grow and develop as a musician at his/her own pace. Ultimately, music is universally accessible and I want to foster a love and appreciation for listening to music as well as performing music. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Flute

I use many different methods, and I do not limit myself to the following list. I believe in a warm-up for all instruments, so each lesson will start with one (scales, long tones, etc.) For flute, I often start with either the book that comes with the rental book, old band books, etc. then I venture off into etude books, long tone books, and solos that promote individual development. Voice students will start with warm up exercises that help them find the placement of the voice and often, depending on why they are taking voice, there is a song that I pick and a song they pick.

Instruments: Voice

Being a student, I have experience from courses I took as part of my degree as preparation for teaching. In these courses, we were taught the fundamentals of the voice on a physiological level, and then had various discussions on how we, as teachers, can translate that to a potential student in a lesson. Part of the requirement for this course was doing field-work, so we all had the opportunity to practice our teaching skills. Read More
