teaching

“Annie is an amazing teacher of music! Not only is she supremely knowledgable about the subject matter, she brings an infectious enthusiasm to every aspect of music. When teaching, she always meets her students where they are, building on what they already know about the discipline, either implicitly or explicitly, and connecting them to new terms or ways of thinking. Her teaching is very student-centered, exploratory, effective, and rewarding. I would definitely recommend taking lessons from her.”

— Wendy, Ear Training student

“Annie is an exceptionally gifted musician and music teacher. She's super patient and really good at finding multiple ways to help me approach and master difficult material, while always emphasizing and giving me methods to find the musicality in exercises. I could not recommend Annie more highly.”

— Dave, Ear Training student

“Right from the start, I noticed how you were able to uncover a kernel of understanding in any answer a student gave you, even if we didn't have the 'whole' answer. I'd call that teaching from success—very clever of you, and much appreciated.”

— Tricia, Ear Training student

“Last week was such a rewarding challenge and I want to thank you for being such a calm and supportive teacher every session. I am so grateful for the structure and focus it brings to my week.”

— Rachel, Ear Training student
