Teresa comes to the Music Together family after 15 years of experience performing as a singer, songwriter and arranger. After earning her Degree in Music Education  from UNI-RIO (University of Rio de Janeiro), she came to Berklee College of Music to further her studies in arranging and songwriting. In Boston she has taught  music privately and in after school music programs. In the past 10 years, she has performed in various arts festivals and jazz venues around the Boston and New York area. Making music with her son, inspired Teresa to explore teaching children and to share her love of music with families in the community. Teresa brings to her classes some songs from the Brazilian repertoire of children songs.  The combination of her sweet vocals and guitar playing, and overall enthusiasm make her a welcoming teacher.
