I hold a Bachelor’s of Education in Music from Wittenberg University and spent nearly a decade teaching in a classroom setting as a general music educator. From 2015 to 2024, I worked with students from kindergarten through 8th grade, designing engaging lessons that combined clear instruction with hands-on learning. My teaching approach has always focused on patience, encouragement, and adaptability—meeting each student at their current level and helping them build both skills and confidence.

Beyond the classroom, I have experience working one-on-one with students to reinforce key concepts, prepare for performances, improve study habits, and strengthen problem-solving skills. I understand that every learner has a unique style, so I tailor my lessons to suit individual needs, whether that means breaking down complex ideas into smaller steps, using creative examples, or incorporating a student’s interests into the material.

I believe learning should feel approachable, supportive, and even fun—not overwhelming. My goal is to equip students not just with the knowledge they need, but with the confidence and curiosity to keep growing long after our sessions end.

Drawing on my background as a general music teacher, I incorporate music theory, ear training, and personalized technique-building exercises to strengthen both skills and confidence. My approach blends patience, clear instruction, and creative practice methods, ensuring students not only improve technically but also develop a lifelong love of music.

My lessons are engaging and interactive, blending singing, movement, listening activities, and creative projects to make music accessible and enjoyable for all learners. My teaching style fosters curiosity, confidence, and a string musical foundation that students can carry into future musical pursuits.
