Lessons tailored to the student in front of me.

I offer personalized lessons to students in Denver in my home or online. All ages are welcome. Generally 5 is the youngest I start teaching; occasionally I work with younger children and those lessons are more play based.

Piano

Piano lessons

The lessons are tailored to each individual student but typically include a combination of sight reading, chords, improvisation, song writing, and theory so that people can be able to play the songs they want to play even before they are able to read music.

Many people think that music is hard, complicated, or has to be learned as a child, but I love to teach people of all ages and to break down the complicated concepts and skills in a way that makes music accessible, playable, and enjoyable.

Voice

Voice lessons

Everyone has a voice and desire to express themselves. Let me help you free your voice through a combined approach to vocal coaching. Relevant techniques and skills such as pitch adjustments, vowel analysis, stylistic guidance, and holistic vocal support help you open your sound and explore your natural instrument to its full potential.

Ukulele

Ukulele lessons

Ukulele can be an excellent compliment to voice or piano lessons. It can also stand on its own as a versatile instrument to enjoy playing. These lessons typically involve chord formations, strumming, finger picking patterns and stylistic guidance over multiple genres of songs.

The ukulele is a fun, portable, and practical instrument. Learning even the basics will get you ready for the campfire in no time. The ukulele lessons range in concepts and skills. They are typically the least technical and include the basics to get people playing songs to accompany vocals.

Who I teach

Kids, adults, beginners through multi-genre pieces.

I tend to specialize in taking kids and adults from the very introductory beginner concepts through higher level classical and multi genre pieces. I am accommodating of neurodiversity and only use positivity and techniques that enhance intrinsic motivation when encouraging my students.
