INSTILLING A LOVE OF MUSIC

SKILLED, MODERN TEACHING

FOR OVER 15 YEARS

Sharing my love of music with students is my passion! I pride myself on fostering an environment where students can always feel loved, accepted, and challenged.  I've worked with students of all ages in order to help them discover their full musical potential, while taking on an approach that focuses on patience and self-encouragement.

Through my unique and personalized teaching methods, my students are able to develop musical skills and effective learning strategies that last. Tailoring each lesson to the individual student, I help them advance in theory, ear-training, composition, improvisation, sight-reading, and performance so they become capable, well-balanced musicians. My greatest joy is watching students succeed and unlock their own potential!

"Melissa really understands children - their phases of development and their temperaments.  She has a wonderful ability to adapt to the individual needs/desires of a child to make the experience one of loving to learn.  We have seen our child both grow as a musician as well as develop an appreciation for music. That is very gratifying as parents."
