LESSONS I PROVIDE
Making Learning Enjoyable
Success in learning frequently depends on finding the right teacher; someone who knows the subject well and understands how to connect with others and inspire them. My teaching style focuses on skills training, but also making the music relevant to each student as well as helping them discover a passion for something new.
BEGINNER FUNDAMENTALS
Customized Lessons to Fit Your Needs
I specialize in beginner fundamentals on most common band and orchestra instruments, and know how to reach my students with the right balance of personalized attention, patience, practical training, and positive encouragement. I make learning fun through a variety of engaging activities. Get in touch today to schedule a lesson at your convenience.
INTERMEDIATE TECHNIQUE
Stepping Stones to Success
As a well respected Pittsburgh area music teacher since 1995, I’ve provided the tools and guidance needed to help all of my students excel. I specialize in teaching piano, voice, bass, and flute, and I enjoy helping students explore more advanced techniques which take them to the next level. Get in touch today to find out more and to reserve your lesson time.
MUSIC THEORY
Personalized Attention
Music literacy has declined to the point that only 11% of the population can proficiently read music. I think that every musician should should take the opportunity to deepen their knowledge and understanding of music by learning music theory. I believe in an approach that gives students positive, constructive ways to learn. I design my lessons according to my students’ needs, with an emphasis on confidence-boosting activities.

REVIEWS
Brielle King
'Tiffany has changed the game for voice lessons. Growing up, I encountered many vocal teachers who all used the same tips, exercises, and methods, and I quickly lost interest in voice lessons because of how unhelpful and mundane they were. My passion for singing also grew dull, and I began to wonder if I even wanted to learn anymore. But then I was introduced to Tiffany, and everything changed for the better. She instantly impressed me with her ability to understand what I was having trouble with, and exactly how to explain the solutions I needed. She's a hard-working teacher with a great sense of humor. I enjoy going to lessons because I know they'll be helpful and fun, and I can now say that my passion for singing has returned and is stronger than ever before. I would highly recommend Tiffany to anyone who wants to powerfully improve their voice!'
