About Stephanie

Bio

Hello, I’m Stephanie! (she/her) I am a singer and pianist, having completed my graduate studies in classical voice performance at the Manhattan School of Music. Both there and at my undergraduate institution (Connecticut College) I tutored music theory and ear training, in addition to taking on other various projects in music education, conducting, and arranging. I have experience with individual and group sessions, as well as working in-person and over Zoom.

Hello, I’m Stephanie! (she/her) I am a singer and pianist, having completed my graduate studies in classical voice performance at the Manhattan School of Music. Both there and at my undergraduate institution (Connecticut College) I tutored music theory and ear training, in addition to taking on other various projects in music education, conducting, and arranging. I have experience with individual and group sessions, as well as working in-person and over Zoom.

One aspect I love about music is how interdisciplinary it is. This excites some students and intimidates others, so as a tutor I enjoy getting to know my students, their strengths, musical backgrounds, and how they learn, in order to develop personalized ways to conceptualize and approach each topic.

Studying at a liberal arts college for my BA in Music, followed by graduate studies at a conservatory, gave me valuable experience in a broad array of musical topics, including theory/aural skills (tonal and post-tonal), history, musicology, education, conducting, basic orchestration, practice techniques, and a lot of performance in many genres (opera, musical theater, pop, choral, and contemporary classical).

Contact me for your musical needs! I would love to work with you.

Approved Subjects

Ear Training

Ear Training

As a classical singer and pianist with experience in many genres of music, I built a strong foundation of practical musical skills. With my students I enjoy finding personalized ways to approach and conceptualize each topic. Over the past several years I have worked with students of all ages on ear training subjects such as melodic and rhythmic sight singing, melodic and rhythmic dictation, identifying, writing, and singing intervals and chords.
General Music

General Music

Studying at a liberal arts college for my BA in Music, followed by graduate studies at a conservatory, gave me valuable experience in a broad array of musical topics, including theory and aural skills (tonal and post-tonal), history, musicology, education, conducting, practice techniques, and performance in many different genres.
Music Theory

Music Theory

I have over 6 years of experience tutoring music theory and aural skills, beginning at Connecticut College and Manhattan School of Music. As a classical singer and pianist I built a strong foundation of practical musical skills, and with my students I enjoy finding personalized ways to approach and conceptualize each topic. Experience in both tonal and post-tonal theory.
Sight Singing

Sight Singing

I have over 6 years of experience tutoring music theory and aural skills, beginning at Connecticut College and Manhattan School of Music. As a classical singer and pianist, I have a strong foundation of practical musical skills, including sight-singing in many genres and settings. I like to approach sight singing with my students in a systematic way which uses musical context and idioms to develop an ease in musical literacy. Topics include: melodies, rhythms, triads and seventh chords, intervals, and more.
Voice (Music)

Voice (Music)

BA Music from Connecticut College, MM and Performance Certificate in Classical Voice from Manhattan School of Music I have extensive experience in many genres, including classical, opera, musical theater, pop, choral, and contemporary classical, and would love to work on any music my students want to sing. Regardless of genre, I incorporate a foundation of classical technique into my instruction in order to build healthy vocal habits and versatility. We will work on technique, musicality, diction, interpretation, and more. All ages welcome :)

Super fun!

My daughter is having so much fun learning how to sing and having so much confidence built in being able to sing around her family and friends!

Excellent Music Theory tutor

Very good at explaining complex topics! Gave very useful pneumonic devices to find key signatures and to write out scales.

Knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and supportive

Within just a few minutes, Stephanie taught me a simple technique to improve the pitch of my sight singing. She also pointed out the things I was doing well, which boosted my confidence. I really respect her knowledge and enthusiasm, and I think if you study with her, you'll have a positive experience, too.

Knowledgeable & helpful

Helpful exercises and strategies to improve sight reading/ear training. She taught me different types of scales to practice to become more comfortable with intervals etc.
