Private Online Music Lessons

Hi.

I am Jennifer, 

I will be your teacher, so I thought I would tell you a bit about myself. (You can read more here.) 

Here are some personal facts about me, 

• I do play and teach all the instruments listed here. 
• The piano was the first instrument that I learned, starting at age 7. I completed all of my Royal Conservatory exam levels including advanced theory, history, and counterpoint. 
• At around age 12, I began formal violin lessons and began learning guitar. Then I learned cello. 
• I officially started teaching music when I was 18 years old at Gordie Brandt's Music school in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan. I had over 40–50 students from the start. 
• I worked as a songwriter and composer for several artists, and also have been a performer throughout different times in my life. You can hear some Soundcloud recordings that I composed and sing here if you are really curious.
• My number one passion is teaching and songwriting. I also like performing, but it is teaching that has always been my first love as a career. 
• I have a wonderful husband (Mike) who is my business partner in the pro audio part of our company, and we have 3 adult children. 
  
•  My favourite music to play on the:-piano is classical, popular, some blues, and Jazz.-violin is Irish and Celtic, I like playing classical too. -guitar is (acoustic fingerstyle, and country to sing with) and on Electric-definitely hard rock and blues. I like metal too. It's quite varied.-Cello is classical and popular. One of my favorite things is playing popular song covers on cello. 
• I am a computer and game nerd (still) it dates back to my days with Atari and Colecovision. I still occasionally play some online MMORPGs. 

So, there, you have a bit of an idea of who I am. I aim to make your lessons enjoyable and to get you playing and enjoying your instrument. We do work hard during your lesson, but I always want you to have a good time. Music is supposed to be fun and make you feel happy.
