Sharing the Love of Music is based on the idea that all children should have the opportunity to learn about and perform music. Therefore, I provide private, in-home instrumental instruction and customized group music classes to those families and students seeking musical and educational enrichment opportunities. My approach emphasizes:

• Musical education with cross-curricular learning in math, science, history and language.
• Children learning to examine, feel, explore and meaningfully engage the world through music.
• Using music to enhance a student's communication skills and creativity.
• Improving children's math, reading and abstract reasoning skills through music.

I work with you and your child to create individualized lessons and courses based on their particular interests and strengths and your educational goals.

Music instruction is integral to nurturing a lifelong love of learning. I offer music lessons to students in an innovative, engaging manner that stimulates creativity and gives children opportunities to thoughtfully and naturally explore the world they live in. I look forward to Sharing the Love of Music with your family.
