I LOVE teaching. In our lessons, I consider the whole person. Who you are in the lesson, and who you are outside of the lesson. I push my students lovingly. I am easygoing when things are tough. I truly enjoy seeing people succeed, and sharing my passion of music with those who want it. Stick with me - I'll help you reach your goals for sure, and enjoy the process!!

Morgan explains music theory in a way that makes it easy to enjoy, understand, and use. She teaches me how to apply my lessons to jazz, pop/rock and improvisation. She pays attention to what my interests are and what I want to learn. We always have fun during the lessons!
Morgan is so encouraging. It's been a long time since I took any formal music lessons, and she is so great about meeting me where I'm at. She clearly has a broad and deep understanding of the content, and she makes learning fun. In the months we've been working together, she's helped me to significantly improve my aural and vocal skill set. Our lessons are always an engaging combination of theory, drills, and working on the songs I select. I'm really excited about my rapid progress, and it's all due to Morgan's awesome coaching!
If you are looking for an amazing keyboard teacher, your search is over. I’ve been taking keyboard lessons with Morgan for 2 years. She is highly competent, encouraging and patient. She is well versed in all types of music, classical, jazz and rock. Morgan also is a very talented vocalist and vocal teacher. I consider Morgan my musical muse and I can’t say enough good things about her. Hire her and I guarantee you won’t regret it.
Morgan is very thorough and organized. I love that she sends notes after the lesson, it really helps me stay on track and focused. She has an excellent understanding of music theory with a great application towards jamming and improvisation, I ALWAYS look forward to my lessons with Morgan!
First lesson, I sit down and explore the goals of the student. I listen carefully, so I can tailor our lessons to help reach these goals. I work with every student differently.

Know what you want out of these lessons. The better you are able to articulate your goals to me, the better I can support you.
Why do you want to learn music (the purpose of your studies)? Is it for fun? Do you want to go into performing?
How much time do you want to dedicate to practicing per week?
