<span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: black;">Hello! I'm Marie and I'm a certified Let's Play Music and Sound
Beginnings Instructor. I am an Arizona native, and currently reside with my
husband and 6 children in the southwest corner of Mesa, bordering
Tempe and Chandler.</span><span style="color: black;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

I received my BM in Music Education from ASU in 2005 in both choral and
instrumental music. This means I took <i>a lot </i>of music classes!
Cello is my main instrument along with singing soprano, but I took lessons and
classes in piano, violin, viola, bass, guitar, woodwinds, upper brass,
percussion, conducting, theory, music history and ear training, along with
numerous music education classes specific to every age. I love teaching music!
It was my pleasure to teach elementary orchestra with Gilbert Public Schools
before starting my own family and getting my Masters degree in education (TESOL).</span><span style="color: black;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

When I am not teaching Let's Play Music, I am teaching cello lessons to my
amazing cello students. I also enjoy playing with my <a href="http://www.emotionstringquartet.com/" target="_blank">String
Quartet,<span style="color: black;"> </span></a>and playing cello with <a href="http://www.millennial.org/east-valley/" target="_blank">EVMCO. </a>I love to swim or ride the <a href="http://www.mesaaz.gov/parksrec/aquatics/flowrider.aspx" target="_blank">flowrider</a> in the summer, cooking
something yummy, and reading or playing at the park with my kids.<br />
<br />
I discovered Let's Play Music when I was looking for a music program for my own
children. My oldest daughter started in the program. As I experienced it with her,
I knew it was something that I really wanted to be a part of! The curriculum
was spot on with everything I had learned in college, and it was so much fun! I became a teacher in 2012 and have been teaching ever since.</span></div><div style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-decoration-color: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;"><span style="color: black; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-decoration-color: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;"><span style="color: black; font-size: medium;">My
3 oldest children are LPM graduates and currently taking private piano, violin
and cello lessons. My younger 3 children are in LPM and Sound Beginnings.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: black;">Music brings me so much joy,
and I love being able to share that joy with other families through Let's Play
Music. If you have never seen a Let's Play Music class in action and would like
to, you are welcome to come and sample a class. Please contact me to schedule a
visit or ask any questions you may have!</span><span style="color: black;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
