APPROACH

I love to share my expertise and passion for music with my private voice and piano students. Lessons are well-balanced; combining structure and fun, with an emphasis on building a strong musical foundation. This format provides a framework for students to build on their natural abilities and explore where their musical talents will lead them, while providing a solid music education.

Students learn: traditional music theory and history, proper vocal and piano technique, how to read notes, rhythms, proper counting, chord analysis, lead sheets, audition preparation, exposure to a variety of genres and composers, collaboration with other musicians, songwriting techniques, creative interpretation, and sound recording. I also utilize technology with various apps, an online student portal, email, texting, Dropbox, and more.

Supporting my student’s creative endeavors is very important to me! I also record my student’s original compositions, and give them weekly inspirations to make lessons personal and lively.

From children to adults, beginner to advanced, all ages and levels are welcome!
