Private lessons for the Striving Oboist or Music Theorist

I have a Master's degree in Oboe Performance, and I obtained this degree with the intention of being able to teach young oboists and help them advance. I started studying with a private teacher as a freshman in high school and my skills exploded almost immediately. Since then I have experienced several different teachers and teaching styles, and I feel like I can find a way to break through for any student. By tailoring a lesson directly to the students needs, I feel confident that I can help improve anyone's skill on the oboe.

I also obtained a concentration in music theory during my undergraduate career, and I feel that music theory is very important to the growth of one's musicality. I have done independent research and presentations in this field and have also studied privately, so I would definitely love to teach others the theoretical approach to appreciating music. With my wide array of skills and experience learning, I would love to pass on the knowledge I have learned to others striving to improve.

About Me

My first oboe teacher left a lasting impressions on me and brought my skills so sky high in a matter of months. Ever since then I have always wanted to do the same for someone, to make them feel truly talented.

I am a generally shy person and have been prone to taking criticism harshly. Knowing how I have felt in lessons at times, I would definitely prioritize not only where the student needs help but also where they shine. I feel like teaching is not only about "correcting mistakes" but also instilling confidence and making sure that students can truly believe in themselves.

Education

Lebanon Valley College, B.A. Music 2018, B.S. Audio & Music production 2019
University of Delaware, M.M. Oboe Performance 2021, awarded a Graduate Assistantship to be the oboist in the graduate wind quintet

Experience / Qualifications

I've studied under 4 highly qualified professional oboists and have learned different teaching techniques from each of them. I have performed in over 20 musicals and have learned the importance of preparation and professionalism. In addition to oboe, I also play flute/piccolo, clarinet, and saxophone, and I have played all of those instruments in ensembles throughout high school and college. Not only was I making sure my oboe skills were prepared, but I also had to maintain the skills for all my other instruments. I have tutored music theory for 2 years through Lebanon Valley College.
