About
Music in Z Major is growing and we have new teachers who are in need of new music students. We are passionate music instructors who undergo frequent teaching assessments to ensure our students are getting the most qualified music education possible.
My teaching philosophy is to provide each student the opportunity to find their passion, to understand who they are as an individual, and to create a sense of community within my studio family. Not only will I give them the tools they need to succeed musically, but most importantly, the tools they need to succeed in life. I want my students to be the best musicians they can be and to be the best versions of themselves that they can be. Abilities vary among each individual and I aim to take the time and the patience to understand and teach every student that comes my way.

We have music instructors of many backgrounds and experiences.
As the founder of Music in Z Major, I have been teaching music since 2014. I have taught concert band, marching band, jazz band, orchestra, brass band, choir, music theory, and I have taught private violin, piano, oboe, and trumpet.
What types of students have you worked with?
My youngest student is a 3-year-old on piano and my oldest student is an 87-year-old on violin. I have taught student all ages.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Do not be shy. You have to communicate with your teacher to let them know what works for you in the lessons and what doesn't work. If you like to choose your own songs - tell them. If you don't like to choose your own songs - tell them. Teachers have many different students with different needs and attitudes. It is helpful if you tell us what we are doing that helps or hinders you.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Are you currently in an ensemble and do you want to join an ensemble?
Are you willing to practice at home each day and each week? Music homework is just as important as doing your other school homework. Consistent practice is one of the many keys to becoming the best musician you can be.
