Lesson Details

We begin with a warm-up exercise-I will let the student pick any easy song from their book that they already know how to play.

Next, we go over last week's homework assignment. The student asks any questions they had about their assignment, and then plays the piece.

Next, we will learn 2-3 new concepts. We will also learn 1-2 new songs that will have the new concepts so the student will learn how to use the new concepts.

Lastly, we will play duets together. The duets sound very ... good and are very encouraging for the students.

About

Julia began playing the trumpet at age 11 in her middle school band. She found her real passion was singing, so she began training with a voice coach, playing piano, and performing in musical theatre productions.

In 2004 Julia entered the School of Music and Theatre Arts at Washington State University. She studied voice and piano and was an avid performer in the WSU Library Atrium Recital Series. She was cast in 6 productions of the school's Opera Workshop Series including "Jane Eyre," ... "Naughty Marietta" and "Der Freitschutz." She also played her trumpet in the Cougar Marching Band for 2 seasons. Julia taught private voice and piano lessons from her studio during college until she graduated in May, 2010.

Today Julia teaches piano, voice and music theory lessons to students in the Seattle area. During the school year she travels to Public Elementary Schools in Seattle and Issaquah and instructs group piano courses for afterschool programs. She teaches private music lessons from her home studio or travels to student's homes to instruct lessons.
