Welcome to Music with Miss V!

I am so excited to be the new music teacher here at Wilson Elementary School! I hope to make music feel accessible, engaging, fulfilling, and--more than anything else--FUN! Music provides a space for expression, relief, and healing for any and every body. I hope to make my students understand that they ALL have the ability to create beautiful music, and I hope to foster a space where they feel safe to explore their own creative capabilities.

 

If you want to reach out to me or have any questions/comments/concerns whatsoever, please feel free to email me: [email protected]

 

About Me

I graduated in 2025 from The College of New Jersey with a Bachelor's in Music Education with a concentration in violin. I have spent 15 years developing my own musicianship in a wide variety of ensembles and settings, and the last 2 years I have focused heavily on developing my teaching skills through field experiences throughout central NJ. I completed my student teaching this past spring with Mrs. Trast and the Grade 6-12 orchestras at Fisher Middle School and Ewing High School in Ewing, NJ, and I became their long-term substitute teacher through the end of the 2024-25 school year. In addition to teaching at Wilson, I also teach private lessons in violin, viola, and piano at Cornerstone Music Studios in Millstone Township. I was born and raised just a few miles from Sayreville over in Metuchen, but I currently live in Hamilton Township with my fiance (a fellow music teacher) and our little tuxedo cat Lucky.
