About Angela

Bio

I have been a teacher since 1986. I have taught all subjects in 3rd and 5th grades for 10 years. I taught middle school religion, math, social studies, and music for the past 17 years. I enjoy working with children and love to see them excel in their studies. I believe positive reinforcement helps them to build the confidence they need to be successful in their academic endeavors. I believe in using a variety of methods to help children meet their academic goals.

Drums

I took drum lessons for several years. I also directed a small band in my former school. I did individual lessons with the students for drums, flute, clarinet, saxophone, keyboard, and trumpet. The percussion section is extremely important because it keeps the rhythm of the piece for the rest of the band.

Ear Training

Through all four years of high and part of college, I was very involved in the Music Programs. I played in the Orchestra and Jazz Ensemble and was required to take Keyboard and ear-training classes. In my previous school, I taught Music Theory to my students and incorporated ear-training into their studies. They were required to listen to what I played on the piano and needed to identify the notes or write down the notes in measures given the time signature and beginning note.
