As a teacher she finds it rewarding to see her music students grow and flourish as musicians. Janelle emphasizes the importance of learning the rudiments of music to build a good foundation (vocal technique, scales, chord vocabulary, theory, song-composition, performing techniques), while also being fun and creative throughout the lessons. She tailors the lessons to each student based on their specific interests and strengths. She specializes in pop and musical theater and also teaches classical voice.
Because Janelle is also a singer/songwriter and recording artist, she can incorporate songwriting, recording, and performance techniques into the student's lessons if desired. She has recorded a full length album and has performed original and cover songs throughout Orange county in music venues.
