스즈키 레코더 그룹 클래스

Hello! My name is Janel L. and I am a music teacher. I worked as an Elementary General Music Teacher in the public schools from 2008 until 2021. I play many instruments, but my favorites are the French horn and the recorder. I have recently been focusing on improving my skills on the ukulele, drum set, and keyboard. In addition to teaching music, I have taught phonics in the public schools and English online to students in China.
I hold a B.Mus. from the University of Georgia in Music Theory and a M.M. in Music Education from the University of Memphis. I began Ph.D. studies in Music Education Fall 2021 at the University of Memphis. I have completed training through the Gordon Institute for Music Learning in both Elementary General Music and Instrumental Music. I have also completed the Level 1 & 2 training in Orff Schulwerk and Unit 1, 2, & 3 Trainings in the Suzuki Recorder School through the Suzuki Association of the Americas, along with Unit 1 & 2 in the Suzuki Brass School. As a registered Suzuki Recorder teacher, I have also taught private and small group recorder lessons outside of the schools. 
My focus as a music educator is on developing a strong, solid musical foundation. As such, I emphasize playing by ear and improvisation along with developing proper instrumental technique and tone.
Outside of music, I'm a total nerd at heart. I love learning about science, technology, and math. I love to find ways to combine these with music.
