About Mary
I'm a passionate, motivated, and sensitive instructor who loves to fully engage with my student's musical journey. I strive to allow my students to fall in love with music in the way I have and share in the beauty of art and performing.
In my experience, I have concluded that in the arts and education, that each student is unique and has their own style of learning. I believe sensitivity is crucial in teaching in order to encourage students to reach their full potential in their studies and development.
I devote my time and energy into personalizing lessons for each of my students.
My services include teaching children from as young as three to adulthood.
As an instructor, it is beautiful and rewarding to witness my students growth not only as a musician but as an overall person through the arts and performing.

I believe that a huge percentange of teaching is psychology, attunement of my students, and understanding individual's needs and wants musically. For beginning piano students, I use a mixture of theory, ear-training, technique, and song books throughout my lessons through companies such as: Bastien Piano (KJOS), Piano Adventures (Nancy Faber), Alfred's basic piano (Willard A. Palmer) along with a few others. I strongly focus on individual's personality, ability, learning style in choosing books and creating lesson plans. Along with learning basic piano skills (finger positions, scales, chords, reading bass and treble clef, key signatures...etc), I place a strong emphasis on posture, releasing of physical tensions, and emotional affirmation. I teach classical, pop, jazz, and folk styles of piano for beginners.
For my beginner to advanced levels of voice, I create my own lesson plans based on each individual. I focus on the foundation of the the voice: the body, release of tensions, breathing, support, vowel placement. Freeing the natural voice. Discovering the authentic sound in everyone's self. I use theory, eartraining, sight reading, solfege and other skills throughout my lessons whether it is in warm ups, or learning songs. I believe full application is necessary especially for my younger students. Musical memory is easily formed as well as bad vocal habits therefore I am highly sensitive to what I am sharing and displaying in my studio. I teach styles of singing including: classical, opera, sacred, contemporary, pop, folk, and jazz.
