Teaching Philosophy

Teaching is a way to share my love of music and show my students how music can better their lives and the world around them. It is important for students to learn how to use their voice in a healthy way in order to enjoy singing for the rest of their lives. I want to give them a good foundation of musical knowledge so they have the ability and tools to continue learning new music on their own. I believe that everyone has a different learning style and method. As a teacher it’s important to make sure each lesson best fits the students learning style. Here are three mottos that I instill my students: In anything you do you should be happy with where you are; be excited about making progress; and be proud of what you have already accomplished. There are so many benefits to having music in your life. To put it simply, music is good for your brain and good for your heart. Not only is it good for you, it’s a lot of fun as well!
