Devon’s journey began when she was 18 years old teaching beginner level piano in her home. She has worked as a private music instructor for 19 years now offering piano, saxophone and clarinet lessons to students of all ages ranging from 3 to 60 years old. Devon never stopped having a passion for teaching music to others since then. And has always felt it was an important mission for her to spread that same appreciation, love and knowledge she has of music to others.
Devon developed her instructing methods to counteract her own experiences with music teachers in the past at a very young age that were all about the very “strict rules” of classical music. Even though this wasn’t something that deterred her from continuing her studies. She saw many others around her becoming discouraged by the lack of encouragement, creativity and passion around music. That’s why she tries to allow her own students to connect and have fun with music as much as possible, focusing on what their goals and music interests are. While still teaching them core, valuable skills that will stick with them throughout the years and help propel them forward in their own journey as a musician.

Devon was fantastic; as an alumna of Berklee College of Music, she helped prepare me for my audition in so many amazing ways. I look forward to continuing to work with her in the future on other music needs!
