Music Lessons in Varnell, GA. It's your time.

The piano is a big instrument to become friends with, and it's worth every minute of practice that one can invest. I make every effort to make learning fun, and I include music games that bring the aha moments that help motivate my students on to the next level of reading and technique. I am patient, supportive with my students, and my low key approach sets them at ease so it's easier to learn and retain. I have taught piano students of all ages for 8 years, and thoroughly enjoyed each one age group. I"m looking forward to meeting you and teaching you how to play the wonderful piano!!

I have been teaching students of all ages and abilities professionally for 30 years. My students have had terrific success with auditions and performances and many have gone on to study horn in college at highly repected Universites such as Northwestern, University of Michigan, Eastman and Oberlin.

I aim to focus on the fundamental aspects of solid horn playing no matter the age or skill level of the student. I have a very diverse experience to draw from in my own life and generally want to pass on the love of this instrument to anyone else who might want it. I am happy to continue to work on anything already being practiced or assign exercises and pieces I think will be helpful to grow the student’s understanding of music and flexibility and musicality on the horn.

I provide private piano lessons customized to each student's skill, pace, and learning style. An age appropriate curriculum is chosen to maximize both learning and enjoyment. Students of all ages and abilities are welcome. During lessons, students will learn proper playing techniques, artistic expression, and music theory while mastering songs from classical, folk, jazz, and pop genres. If you're interested, please send me a message!
