General Info
Music teaching is a passion for me. I have some of the best credentials in the Seattle area. Parents who recognize and appreciate the positive effects, on every aspect of their children's lives, of developing musical skills, will want to enroll their children in my classes. Each class is a carefully designed event that is planned and prepared to be very, very fun while attaining pre-planned music objectives. All of my classes have several common goals: To inspire the child to love music, to spark and develop the imagination and to lay a foundation of music skills that will last a lifetime. The classes prepare the child to begin playing an instrument at a young age, if he or she is so inspired, but whether or not your child continues to play, she has strengthened her cognitive learning neurons, developed her/his imagination and learned to love music. In addition to having a Doctorate in Education with a focus on music and imagination, I have nearly 30 years of experience teaching music at the preschool and elementary school level. My Bachelors Degree is in Music Education with a dual emphasis in guitar and voice. I have played piano since I was 4 years old. I also have a Masters Degree is in Special Education with an emphasis on music as an early intervention. In addition, I became an Orff instructor in 1985. I have participated in literally hundreds of hours of music education, child development and early childhood classes and workshops. In addition, I have attended dozens of workshops on movement for children and my classes always contain a strong element of movement. In my teaching use the Orff approach, especially with young children, but also incorporate elements of the Suzuki and Kodaly modalities. Throughout the years, in addition to directing my own music academy, I have conducted many workshops, summer music programs and children's choirs. I have been a song writer and performer most of my life and bring this perspective to my teaching. A strong emphasis on creativity and development of the imagination runs through all of my classes.
