Teaching Philosophy

“I believe that education is one of the strongest tools that we have, and music education is no different. Education is a form of communication that underpins everything in our interconnected world. Through music education, students learn more than just music; they also gain insight into themselves and their relationships with the world and their bodies. This is the crux of the private vocal lessons that I teach. I have taught K-12-aged children outside of school, providing singing lessons in Massachusetts and New Hampshire.

I teach with a more interactive approach and work with each student individually. I place a strong emphasis on popular music in my lessons, showing how new music can teach us as much as older music can. Additionally, I make it a point to teach music theory intertwined with current songs that the student is listening to and singing.”
