About Valerie
Music has been an integral part of my life since the age of four, so it has never seemed like a job. It is my passion and I want to share and instill that passion in others. I have been very blessed in working with some of the world’s most gifted musicians and teachers. They have been my inspiration throughout my life.
Music touches us in a very unique way. It is a window into ourselves, our culture and our communities linking our past and our present. Everyone benefits from having music in his or her life. It awakens curiosity, encourages risk taking, builds teamwork, community, cooperation, and collaboration, and teaches respect and patience. By exploring different facets of music there are opportunities to enhance and expand life skills such as connection with others, confidence, pride and joy. Music taps our emotions, psyches, creativity and reverence. It is both deeply personal and universally meaningful.
Knowing my students is extremely important to me. Taking an interest in their likes and dislikes makes our relationship both in and out of the classroom or rehearsal a more fulfilling one. A teacher does not know everything and must be willing to listen and think about thoughtful suggestions and comments from their students.
The students that are in music lessons are active musicians! Regardless of their age or their level of ability, I truly believe that all my students can succeed in exploring and discovering the richness and beauty of music. It is important to encourage them in a caring, positive, supportive and safe environment and to make the study of music engaging, fulfilling, and enjoyable.
Ultimately, my greatest joy and responsibility is to open a window for my students as I introduce and guide them in their musical journey. I want them to be proud of who they are, what they can accomplish and to have a desire to be a responsible citizen in both school and their community. Music encourages compassion, gentleness and sensitivity. Their success is a tribute to their work to be the best that they can possibly be. I don’t want my students to settle for less; on the contrary, I encourage them to be their best.
