About Heidi
I earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Music Education, have many years of playing, performing, recording & teaching experience. I have taken private lessons on many instruments as well as voice and have continued my own education and performing experience for many years. I play many different styles of music and have experience with composing, arranging, transcribing, song writing, and improvisation. I have experience teaching in public and private schools, have and continue to Substitute teach and I contract with an online company that connect students with quality music teachers.
I teach many students from different cultures and backgrounds, which I celebrate, students with different abilities and experience, students with different disabilities, as well as students of all ages from 3&1/2 through 70 years of age and I tutor in different music studies areas. I get to know my students through assessment and evaluation to learn about their needs and what learning styles work best for them. I work at creating a welcoming and supportive environment and get to know each student. I am professional, supportive, positive, outgoing, engaging, and always willing to help students in between our lessons. I also take time to prepare and create meaningful and motivating practice materials that are individualized for every student. I think about what’s best for my students and include their goals and interests in my creation and development of lesson planning and curriculum.

I am an adult student. I met Heidi in 2014, when I started composing music earnestly. We have been working together since that time, so 11 years. I'd gone as far as I could without a teacher. Heidi strives to make sure that she doesn't impose her superior knowledge on my compositions, always acknowledging that the music must sound good to me. With that she provides knowledge, suggestions, and ideas that have helped me compose several pieces including a fantasia, a waltz, a piano quartet and a tone poem. These would not have happened without Heidi working with me over the years. Highly recommended.
Heidi is a fun and enthusiastic teacher who does a great job meeting her students where they are at, while coaxing then to keep moving forward with their skills. She has been teaching guitar to our seven year old for the last 8 month, and recently started working with our 4 year old to see if she's ready. She is very knowledgeable and I can see she has a great love for teaching music. We are very fortunate to have found her.
Heidi has been my private music teacher for more years than I can count on my fingers (14 years). Through all my phases, (elementary - university) she has supported me so much. I play the flute, and when I was first learning it took a while, but Heidi was kind and patient and let me take my time in learning. Heidi is kind and thoughtful, an attentive listener, and cares lots for the musical community. Her taste in music is phenomenal, and she cares deeply about collaboration and listening to what her students have to say. I have never given up because of Heidi, she's the best teacher I've ever had. Highly recommend! 10/10!
Someone in my family has been taking some music lesson from Heidi since 2012. She's helped all three of my kids get better and progress as musicians. All three still play or sing regularly and all take joy in it. I truly believe that the support, knowledge, and encouragement Heidi gave them over the years is a bit part of them.
I'm not going to dwell on the fact that she was able to teach one kid piano (he's a very decent player now), one kid flute, help the third when she wanted to develop her singing voice, and now she and my husband play electric guitar during his lesson. She's truly multitalented.
The things that stand out to me, as the parent of students, is how well she balances patience with expectation. She was patient on the weeks when they didn't want to -or didn't bother to- practice, but her expectation that they would, and her encouragement meant that they did.
True educators, in my opinion, are wonderful people who can guide a student through their learning to be their best. I feel that Heidi is one of those educators and this is why I'm happy to recommend her.Heidi has been my music teacher for a few years now, and I can't express how grateful I am for her guidance. I was initially unsure if I could ever find my inner voice, but she truly believed in me and helped me uncover it. Her support has not only boosted my confidence but also deepened my understanding of music. If you're looking for someone to help you on your musical journey, I wholeheartedly recommend Heidi for your lessons. She is incredible!
I’ve known (Heidi) for a number of years and I know that she is an excellent musician, teacher and cares about her students!
I highly recommend her!
She’s the best!
Heidi seems to enjoy the collaborative process with students who become interested in music at any level.
It is evident that she has more than one teaching strategy to utilize for students who may learn differently, rather than one for everyone.
Heidi is a warm, caring and engaging Teacher who is passionate about sharing the joy of music. She provides a safe and encouraging learning environment and has always been professional and supportive.

Details
The last few years I have raised my rates by around $5 a year, before that it had been 6 years before I rated my rates except when gas costs were above $5 a gallon. I have a formal music education, am college educated in music, have years of experience both playing/performing and teaching and I offer much more than a music lesson, therefore my rates may be higher than other people on this site, but there is no comparison. Most lesson instructors don’t teach 10 instruments, have a Degree in Music Education or offer personalized practice materials that I create. Most places that teach music lessons like Jam Academy and Guitar Center charge $45-50 per half hour lesson. My rates are competitive and many of those music instructors don’t have a degree or as much experience, and training with teaching. You get what you pay for, so if you want quality, experience, well rounded, comprehensive music education, I’m a great fit. I also am passionate and flexible as well as knowledgeable.
