About The Teacher

I like to say "I do what I teach and teach what I do, " because I am both a teacher and a working musician.

I hope my students learn as much from me as I do from them!

To have fun while learning and trying new things, whether students are more

or less experienced in music. EVERYBODY can be a MUSICIAN.

A saying from Africa says it all: "If you can talk, you can sing. If you can walk, you can

dance."

Students in all grade levels will learn musical skills and appreciation

through Speaking, Singing, Moving, and Playing.

Instruments used will include:

1.Unpitched Percussion Instruments (Hand Drums, Conga Drums, Shakers,

various Wood and Metal Instruments)

2.Pitched Percussion (Xylophones, Metallophones, Glockenspiels, Melody Bells)

3.Recorders (3rd, 4th and 5th Grades)

4.Keyboards

Activities in Music Classes develop individual and cooperative

skills,listening, memory, problem-solving skills, and creativity.

And they're FUN!!
