Ms Merritt

Miss Merritt came to KinderVillage with her own two children and has stayed on as a teacher for over 15 years. With prior experience as a public school music teacher and mother, she immediately saw the value of pre-school music education. Kindermusik programs give strong musical foundations and set the stage for joyful, life-long learning. Focused on levels 4 and 5 students, she has enjoyed guiding hundreds of students through the excellent 2-year program of the Kindermusik Musicians. Parents are often amazed that their children can learn so much: how to read rhythm and melodic notation, and play songs on their glockenspiels, dulcimers, and recorders. Within a fun, nurturing environment, Ms. Merritt is proud to give students a new language and exposure to many different musical styles and cultures. Level 4 Kindermusik is a great way for children to get ready for Kindermusik Musicians and private lessons. Continuing on with life-long learning herself, Ms. Merritt has taken harp and ukulele lessons. 

An accomplished flutist, you can hear Ms. Merritt perform with the Triangle Wind Ensemble which provides high-quality concert band performances for the community, many of which are for the whole family. Recordings and special video productions are available at the TWE website: www.trianglewind.org.
