About Kathleen B.

(5)
I began playing piano at the young age of 4. I have the ear for music naturally, and played back what the teacher played, barely reaching the piano keys. Since then I continued to pursue music. My Mom helped me with piano lessons throughout school. 3rd grade, NJ I played the clarinet, 8th grade, I accompanied the choir at graduation. (Taught by Annette Munley) In HS I was in various ensembles and played various instruments, bass clarinet, cymbals, xylophone, mallet percussion, alto sax/tenor though some were as big as me!!!I I graduated William Paterson University with a BA Liberal Arts Music with a degree in audio recording. I was blessed engineering with jazz legendary bassist, Rufus Reid, and interned with James Brown's engineer, Bob Both owner of Twain Recording. Music has stayed with me all of my life. In 2003 I began church ministry and explored Christian Praise and Worship music, and was placed in Billboard top 500 for a christian song I wrote. Thank you for taking your time to read my profile, it's always a pleasure to teach!

I have received several lessons from Kathy and was also present at some of her other student's lessons. Kathy is patient and kind and exhibits not only talent and knowledge of piano but is a real teacher. By that I mean when Kathy teaches the students learn and love it. She has a way of encouraging her students while they learn to love music. She teaches music and her student lean piano and self confidence.
Kathy is truly a gifted and talented teacher.

I'm proud to say that I was Kathy's music teacher from kindergarten through eighth grade.. It was a pleasure to teach Kathy to play percussion instruments. I
also selected Kathy to play the piano accompaniments for the singing of the
graduation songs. Kathy is a talented musician with a special gift of her love
of music and the desire to share that gift with her students in a patient and
caring manner.
