Clases de guitarra

Hello!  My name is Tara and I am a music teacher and mom in Florida, USA.  I have been a school music teacher and private lesson instructor for 15 years, and I love what I do!  I currently teach early childhood music at a K-8 school, as well as individual lessons in voice, guitar, piano, and ukulele. I also conduct a children's choir in my home community.

I have a Master of Music Education and Bachelor of Music Education, both from Florida State University.  I have taught Pre-K through 12th grade music full time in Florida and Massachusetts schools, and hold teaching certificates in both states. I am proud that my educational background is focused on pedagogy, not just performance.

I believe that music is for every child, and every child is musical.  There is a common misconception that musical ability is something people either have or "don't."  Music can be taught and learned, just like any skill.  Every child has music to share, and I want to help them nurture it.  Music lessons are never "one size fits all" -- I am always creating instructional materials that suit the needs and interests of a particular student.

I would love to get to know your child and make music together.  If there is a music class you would like to see offered, or if you would like to set up a class time that is not currently scheduled, please send me a message!
