Ms. Blessed has more than eight years of experience teaching voice to middle and high school students, musical theater, choir, and six years of experience teaching music in K-5 school classrooms. She began cultivating her passion for music at four years old in Nigeria. Her earliest music memories include performing dance and voice recitals on stage at age five and attending competitions. She has been taking formal lessons from a young age and now sings professionally, composes music, and leads worship at church. Ms. Blessed enjoys sharing her love for music with each student. She believes that regardless of age, each child is filled with desires, ideas, gifts, and talents. It takes those around them to be willing to listen, encourage, and cultivate these things. Unlocking the world of music for a child will impact them for the rest of their life because music is fundamental to human expression.
