Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I always evaluate the singers strengths and weaknesses and tailor their lessons to help them reach their goals.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a degree in Musical Theatre Performance (with a vocal concentration) and have been licensed to teach in the public school setting in California, Washington and Colorado.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
Private lessons are $75. Tuition fees are required up front for a minimum of four lessons ($300).
How did you get started teaching?
I started teaching in college as people began approaching me after seeing me perform.
What types of students have you worked with?
I've worked with students ages 4-65 who are interested in a variety of genres.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
Last Christmas, I produced a Christmas program at the Koelbel Library Forum Little Theatre. We performed a wide variety of styles of music with dance and visuals from around the world.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
1. Make sure you choose a teacher who is well educated in performing and well as teaching voice. I have had MANY students come to me who have had teachers who mainly taught piano and also included voice. I had to help them unlearn bad practices. (Beware of voice teachers who are really good pianists)
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
1. Ask what the foundation of good, healthy singing is? Their answer should revolve around effective breath and diaphragmatic support.
2. Ask about their performance experience and achievements. If they are not competing/performing at the top of their game, they really shouldn't be teaching.
