A Joyful Noise

Hello! Thank you for your interest! My name is Gina. I live in New London, NC on Badin Lake. I LOVE playing music and especially teaching others. My students range from 5 to 75 years old. As you can see, you are never too old to start learning how to play a musical instrument.

I have been playing music since I was 4 years old. I started with piano then went on to play violin in the 5th grade. I played clarinet, saxophone and drums from 6th through 12th grade and was the Drum Major for 3 years. As an adult, I also learned how to play guitar. I wish everyone would take an opportunity to learn how to play music as it is so relaxing and rewarding in addition to being entertaining for those around us.

I see each student as an individual with their own level of experience and goals they have set for themselves. I do my best to make sure above all else that my students have fun and feel a sense of accomplishment with every lesson. These are the secrets to developing an accomplished musician, who will continue playing for many years to come as well as building a solid foundation and creating a gateway to learning other instruments if so desired.

I give lessons in my home as well as in my students home (for an additional $5 within a 30 minute drive).

I hope you will consider me in getting you or your child started in learning the art of playing music. My first lesson is free and more of a Meet and Greet to see if we are a great fit for each other and to decide on the instruction materials best suited for the student.

I hope to hear from you! 🎵🎶🎵🎶
