TEACHING EXPERIENCE

2003-2008: * K-6 General Music/Chorus Teacher * Private Guitar and Piano Lesson Teacher 2009-present: Owner/Creator of Accelerando Music & Tots with Tempo * "Parent and Me" Music and Movement Classes for Ages 0-7 * Private Guitar and Piano Lessons * Music Director at various preschools and daycares

MY TEACHING STYLE

Learn through PLAY! I am very influenced by the Orff, Kodaly, and Dalcroze pedagogies. All of my songs are easy to learn and incorporate movement and action. Tots with Tempo's material encourages improvisation and imagination as little one's explore and experience music fundamentals through play.

ADDITIONAL BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION

I have two spunky kids that are the inspiration for my songs and material. They are also my testers: if they don't approve, the song doesn't make the cut! My husband, Logan, is a mechanical engineer for the USPTO, and also phenomenal guitarist and vocalist. We enjoy performing at weddings and local events together. My favorite thing to do is spend time with my family, friends, and mischievous dog, Luna. I feel so blessed to be able to do what I love! Thank you for checking out my store.
