MUSIC / GRADES 4 – 8

Joyce Alexander 

I am pleased to introduce myself as an adjunct Music Instructor for the Middle School Music Program at Cedar Hill Prep. I am a graduate of Montclair State University where I received a Bachelor of Arts in Music Therapy which includes, but is not limited to, voice, guitar, and piano instruction which I have incorporated within my twenty years of teaching experience. In addition, I have developed and incorporated music curriculums for students in outreach programs and have provided individual and group music lessons for students from preschool through high school.

I take a holistic approach with my students, initially evaluating them each individually, building on their strengths, and assisting them in setting music goals for the year.  I believe this goal setting seamlessly flows through other academic disciplines promoting academic success. I am currently on the faculty at The Wharton Institute for the Performing Arts, Berkeley Heights, New Jersey teaching early childhood music and group piano classes.
