Teaching Philosophy
I believe everyone can learn to sing. Singing is something that brings me so much joy and I want to help others experience that same joy. I believe learning should be an enjoyable and positive experience for learners of all ages. Singing tells a story and in order to tell that story we need to look at musicality, technique , lyrics, and also what part of the story the accompaniment is helping to tell. I use the parts of the songs we are working on to work on technique and warm up the voice. Everyone has a unique voice and our goal is to help you develop that voice into the best it can be.
Musical Education

Our Promise to You
Getting Started Together
We don't offer free trials, but we do something better - a relaxed 2-lesson getting-to-know-you period. You can pause anytime with just 24 hours notice. After your third lesson, we ask for a friendly 2-lesson heads up if you need to stop.
Life Happens - We Get It
Give us 24 hours notice for any cancellation or reschedule and you'll receive full credit. Planning a family vacation or summer break? Perfect - just let us know a day ahead and we'll pause your lessons.
When You're Under the Weather
If illness strikes with short notice (less than 24 hours), you'll still be charged since your teacher has reserved that time. However, most teachers are happy to offer makeup lessons when possible - they have the final say, especially if last-minute cancellations become a pattern.
Stopping Lessons
Need to take a break? We just ask for a 2-lesson notice:
Weekly lessons = 2 weeks notice
Every other week = 3 weeks notice
Twice weekly = 1 week notice
Summer breaks are different - no notice period needed when you return in the fall!
