I hold a Bachelor of Science in Music from the University of Evansville, IN (1985). I have taught private piano and voice lessons independently for 35+ years. My methods have changed over time. For example, I now teach students how to read music by pattern as opposed to the acronym Every Good Boy Does Fine or FACE. Although it can help learn the note names fast initially, if you forget which clef spells FACE, you've lost all the letters. Also, I think reading by patterns, known as intervals, especially in the upper grades, can eventually help one to learn the notes for new sheet music faster. However, each student as their own way of learning, my job is to adapt to the student's learning style. Many of my piano students participate in the optional Keyboard Education of Youth (KEY) competition. Several of my students were recently chosen to perform in an Honors Recital and received trophies. Others consistently earn Superior ratings in the Federation of Music Clubs, now known as the Indiana Arts Festival. My voice students learn how to breathe correctly. Ask the average beginner to take a deep breath at their first lesson. One invariably hears a loud, tense breath. Deep breathing gives one carrying power, also known as projection. We also work on pronouncing words correctly, interpretation, and singing in tune. Some students struggle with this because their breathing is too shallow. Others need to develop an understanding of pitch relationships. I enjoy teaching solfege, Do Re Mi, as in the Sound of Music. It is important to me to understand each student's goals and develop a plan accordingly. All students, whether piano or vocal, receive a thorough music background in music including theory, ear training, interpretation, musicianship, performance etiquette, and musicianship, such as loud and soft contrast.

I began playing guitar in 1989 and learned from taking lessons myself. I attended Vincennes University and took music class while a student there. After graduating, I started teaching lessons in 1996 at a music store and part-time at Vincennes University. Over the years, I have taught many students from different age groups on electric guitar, acoustic guitar, bass guitar, ukulele and even some mandolin. I have taught many different styles of guitar playing within many different genres of music.

Frequently Asked Questions
Each instructor customizes lessons to ensure you are learning what you like and having fun. Your instructor will start you slowly, introducing new concepts each week, plus give you exercises or easy songs to play to keep you learning at home.
Learning an instrument is an enriching and rewarding experience that creates lifelong benefits, including increased self-esteem and the boosting of memory. Additionally, benefits for school-age individuals can include improved coordination, the expanding of social skills, and higher scores in math, reading and language.
30-minute lessons allow young or beginner students to learn the basics of the instrument and start playing songs. 60-minute lessons are ideal for more advanced students looking to progress faster and focus on the finer points of technique.
This varies by age and the type of goals the student has set out to achieve. However, most new students usually spend 15–30 min. practicing daily, while advanced students can practice for an hour or more each day in between lessons.
Our flexible curriculum allows students of all skill levels to experience growth. We help create a foundational understanding of music theory through the style of music you want to play. Our instructors will work to understand your goals and passions, and make sure you are on the path to learning what you want at your own speed.
Our Lessons staff will work with you to determine your current skill level, stylistic interest and ambitions. We'll then help you choose an instructor who best suits your style and goals. If at any point, you'd like to change instructors, let us know. Our weekly monitoring of progress and wide-ranging curriculum means you can switch to any of our qualified instructors, or another instrument, without missing a beat.
