    Our Teachers

    Our teachers at Musicologie Prosper all have different specialties, histories, and educations. Some have masters or doctorate degrees. Some have toured professionally. Some focus on early childhood education. They love figuring out what inspires each individual student and we pride ourselves on finding the perfect teacher-student match.

    You'll see certification badges next to many of our teachers. That means they have passed one of five levels of the Musicologie Teacher Certification Program, which quantifies their experience, leadership, and ongoing professional development.

    Originally from Wisconsin, Quinn moved to Texas to improve her career in the fine arts. She earned her BA in Music, Educational Studies and Theater in 2018 from Carroll University (Waukesha, WI). After COVID-19 struck, she decided it was a good idea to go achieve her masters rather than sit on her couch. She graduated with a MM in Musical Theatre Pedagogy from Carthage College (Kenosha, WI) in 2021. She is a Wisconsin and Regional Music Theatre NATS winner in 2017 and 2018. Quinn has performed in many musicals over the years, some of her favorites include Martha Dunstock in Heathers and Mama Rose in Sondheim's Women at Carroll University. She is excited to be the Community Manager and teach for this great community at Musicologie Prosper!
