As a music teacher of over 15 years I take a fun but structured approach to learning the harp. I've taught all ages and I individually work with each student to help them learn the music that they want to and reach the goals that they set for themselves. I also have a large emphasis on hand position and help my students have the very best technique so they can play their very best. We will typically start with exercises and technique and then move to music. I will then send written individual feedback after the lesson to help remind the student of what we are working on. I hope to have the chance to share my love of music with you!

A passionate pedagogue with nearly a decade of teaching experience, Tiffany currently maintains both a musical and literary private studio with over twenty students, ranging from elementary school students to college seniors. She received her BM in Harp Performance from Northwestern University and is currently pursuing her masters in Harp Performance at NYU.

She's worked with students of all ages and enjoys using interdisciplinary forms of teaching to make music more memorable and fun to learn. Tiffany also plays a variety of styles, from classical to pop to jazz, so that she is better able to work with her students on their preferred music of choice.

She wanted to share her gift of music with others and started teaching harp lessons when she was 17. Lydia was hired on as a teacher with a local professional music company and worked there for 4 years. During that time she continued her education and received the necessary training on how to effectively teach students of any age.

I teach the folk harp. This is a smaller harp of about 22-26 strings that plays in the major scale of C. I have built my own harps and love playing Irish tunes on them as well as popular folk music. I have performed weddings with my harp and seen first hand the peace and tranquility it both brings to the player and those who listen.
Lessons will aim to give the student the musical foundation and tools they need to explore this amazing instrument. Focus on many style of music and an aim to work toward playing the student's favorites songs will be a primary goal in addition to having a lot of fun! :)
