I LOVE MUSIC!

All kinds.... vocal, instrumental, classical, pop, some country, classic rock...

I LOVE SCHOOL!

====I began taking piano lessons at age 5 and continued through college. My undergraduate degree is from Wilkes University and I earned my Master's Degree in Music Education from Marywood in May 2009. Piano is my main instrument. I minored in voice, but have also taken lessons on most other instruments. In addition to my degrees, I have earned other certificates in music education. In 2003 I completed the Kodaly training course at the Hartt School of Music in Connecticut, and in 2010 I completed my Orff-Schulwerk training through the University of the Arts in Philadelphia. ====

I LOVE TO TEACH! ==== So that I am always up to date with music education, I belong to several professional organizations: locally PMEA (Pennsylvania Music Educator'sAssociation) and nationally MENC (Music Educator's National Conference), AOSA (American Orff-Schulwerk Association) and PAOSA, where I attend workshops several times per school year in Philadelphia. ====

Music is my life, and I'm delighted to share what I know with my students.
