Hi, I’m Bernadette — a music teacher based in Imperial Valley, California. I hold a bachelor’s degree in music, a master’s in education (curriculum & instruction), and a music teaching credential. I believe that anyone can learn to play music — all you need are the right tools, a little guidance, and a welcoming community.
That’s what we’re building together on Patreon.
