Music Theory

Christine has been teaching private voice and piano lessons since 2005. Christine has helped students of all ages pursue their love of music and develop their skills and education for many years.  She loves teaching students in all music styles and finds that relating to them with the music that they love and incorporate it into what they are learning helps them understand and appreciate what they're learning even more.  

Christine received a degree in Honors Vocal Performance in 2005. As an expert in her field, Christine looks forward to helping new students achieve their goals. Christine's teaching style is fun, educational and stress-free.  She finds that students learn the best when they feel comfortable and are able to experiment with music in a relaxed environment.

Are you learning an instrument or singing and have questions about sheet music or music theory? 
In this class, Christine will answer students' questions about reading music and deciphering Music Symbols in Music pieces.  Come with your questions!

The lessons were really fun and I learned so much! 

Christine was wonderful! Patient with my 7 year old and very pleasant. We’re continuing privately with her.

She was excellent. My daughter is 7 and kind of shy and she had a blast! Great teacher for kids…patient and kind.

She is knowledgeable and patient with her students.

She was wonderful with my sons first lesson.

Christine is a wonderful teacher for my 6 year old.

Came to Christine as an over-the-hill former trumpet player, and she helped me to understand bass clef and other little things in the piano books to get me started with learning to play the piano.  Very patient, helpful, and fun to work with.

Christine is balanced, flexible and encouraging. I’m glad she had an opening for me!

Christine made recommendations that were immediately realized.  She was a joy to work with and I would recommend her with anyone looking to improve their voice.

My husband took my daughter there so I cannot speak for him but he said Christine appeared to be a nice instructor.

My granddaughter loves Christine and she is learning a lot  from what I see.  Christine knows our goals and is helping Reilyn achieve them.  I know several others that have been in singing lessons and most never liked their instructor but that is not the case with Reillyn.  So we are very pleased and will continue
