My Students

I work with students who have a love for music. They enjoy singing, dancing and rapping. I currently service Second through Fifth grade students as well as autistic kids. What makes my students so special and unique is to be able to learn with the little we have.

They're hungry and eager to learn.

With so much energy we would clap our hands, snap are fingers and stomp our feet and make music and different kinds of beats, body percussion we call it. These little bodies are so energetic, full of life and great spirit. I like to refer to them as my busy musical bees!

My Project

W are requesting a brand new ivory recorder for each of my students! The recorders will make a huge impact on my students music experience. It will improve their learning significantly to help them become GREATNESS! What make these recorders so special is that it will help my students RISE to become a LEGACY. The next James Galway, Emmauel Pahud or the future Kenny-G because of your generosity.

With these recorders the students would put into practice the note reading they've been learning to actually make music that they can recognize.

They'll be able to take their recorders home to practice creating and composing music to make them better musicians. Do you remember your Elementary music experience? Help me makes theirs unforgettable.
