I have a Bachelor's degree in Music Education as well as eleven years of private teaching experience. My students are all different, so each lesson is different! I tailor each lesson to meet the needs of the students and to reach their long and short-term goals. My experience working with children and adults of all ages has only confirmed my love for teaching, music, and people. I love what I do, and do my best to nurture a love for music in my students.

Beth is a wonderful teacher, so patient with little boys and so encouraging, my boys love going to her classes each week.

She seemed to really care about this subject which makes the kids care!



My boy loves her. Bethany is very friendly and positive, made my son feel comfortable and confident.


Enjoying the lessons!

Hi Ms Bethany, this is Sheenu(Gia & Dia's mom). I was just confused after the class coz I had signed them both for singing lessons not theory lessons. But as far as I know you gave a great class on the basics of theory, which was wonderful. Thank you so much for your excellent class. Please let me know if I need to do anything more to change it to singing lessons.
Thank you!!
Kind regards,
Sheenu.

Great teacher!

Great teacher. Examined bad technique and then demonstrated proper technique. Fit us in at last minute too. Building confidence!

My daughter started classes with Bethany recently. She is excellent with kids and very patient and encouraging as well. My daughter really looks forward to her classes with Bethany.

My son said he had a great first lesson and really liked Bethany's teaching style. He's excited to sing w her!

Thank you Bethany for being so kind and caring. I can't wait to have more lessons with you!

Bethany is extremely nice and fun. She seems extremely knowledgeable, having a ton of experience teaching. My first lesson was a good amount of information, but not overwhelming. It is a true joy to have a teacher that is incredibly passionate about music and teaching others!!! I highly recommend Bethany for anyone looking to start playing piano.

I needed a voice coach to help me with the mechanics of singing. Bethany gave me advice on proper breathing, warm ups and vocal exercises, dietary do's and don'ts, etc. Her knowledge and experience helped me tremendously. I highly recommend Bethany.



I simply enjoyed my first class with Bethany. I was quite hesitant to start learning the piano at the age of 42 but Bethany made the class so enjoyable. I cant wait for my next class.

My daughter has been taking lessons from Bethany for almost two months and she really enjoys her lessons and has a good rapport with Bethany. Would definitely recommend her as a singing instructor.



My daughter enjoys her classes with Bethany :)

I am 65 years old and have had a phobia about singing since I was about ten. After thirty minutes with Bethany, I have hope that I can develop the confidence and skill to join in when others sing at church or a birthday party. She put me at ease and made me believe in possibility. You're never too old to be bold!



Bethany is amazing and is great with kids. Our 9 year old daughter just loves her and really enjoys the lessons!


Bethany was wonderful and my granddaughter responded well and was very happy after lesson.

Bethany has amazing skills with children. As a former teacher, I appreciate the purposeful methods she uses as well as her genuine warmth and positivity! Absolutely hit the jack pot finding Bethany.

Really enjoyed my first lesson, singing is way out of my comfort zone and Bethany made it seem achievable

I am encouraged and looking forward to more lessons

Very professional, easy to work with.

Bethany is extremely awesome we love her and we are glad that we have her as a teacher.

I let people know that Bethany is a great teacher. She makes my lessons fun an challenging. I would recommend her to any one she is awsome

I really was so impressed with Bethany! For being young, she really knows so very much regarding music and the piano. She is very personable, and I really look forward to my next lesson.

Amazing teacher!

Bethany is the only instructor I have ever had. She is very good at teaching someone to play piano . I would recommend her to any one. She is Great.

My daughter takes lessons with Bethany and loves them. Bethany makes the lessons fun while teaching technical aspects of singing. My daughter has Asperger's and sometimes has a hard time with new people. She warmed up instantly to Bethany, which tells me a lot about her character in general. Not only is she a great teacher, she's a great person. I highly recommend!

Bethany is so knowledgeable she made my 6year old daughter feel so comfortable. She acted like she had known her not that it was a first time meeting. My daughter is so excited to go back!!

Bethany is such an excellent teacher/tutor! She is so positive and encouraging to my daughter. She gives her good feedback and guidance to help my daughter achieve her goals. She makes learning fun and enjoyable. I am so glad we found Bethany. If you are looking for a 5 Star Instructor, look no further. Bethany is the best!

She is a wonderful teacher and very kind!
My daughter takes voice lessons from Bethany and she absolutely enjoys it. She thinks Bethany is a great teacher and very nice!
She teaches in the way my teenage daughter understands, she is very knowledgeable with a great personality.
