Elizabeth Gerrity:

Elizabeth Gerrity has had a life-long passion for music and learning. At age seven, she begged her parents for piano lessons and had the good fortune of finding a loving, nurturing, gifted teacher, from whom she learned for ten years. Elizabeth holds a Bachelor's of Classics -Western thought and Civilization from Brown University, and a Bachelor's in Music and Masters of Arts in Music from Florida Atlantic University.

In past twenty years, Elizabeth has taught music, humanities, philosophy and Latin, to age levels ranging from Kindergarten through University. Her primary teaching interest, however, became private piano lesson, where she maintained a studio of over thirty students. A new marriage and job relocation has recently brought her to the Orlando area and the discovery of Kindermusik. A newly licensed Kindermusik Educator, Elizabeth is absolutely thrilled at the prospect of joining Grow and Sing Studios and becoming a master Kindermusik educator, giving back the love of music and learning she received from her nurturing role models in her childhood. The Kindermusik philosophy of developing the whole child is the perfect match for her and she feels blessed to be given the opportunity to contribute.

Katherine Moore:

Katherine Moore has been singing and playing violin since before she can remember; her parents started all of their children in lessons at age three and she was lucky to grow up in a house filled with music. As she went through her years learning from her violin teachers, voice teachers, orchestra directors and choir directors, she knew she wanted to grow up to teach music, too! After high school Katherine left her native New York State and went to Appleton, Wisconsin to earn her Bachelor of Music in music education at Lawrence University Conservatory of Music with concentrations in orchestra and elementary general music.

Katherine spent four years in Madison, Wisconsin teaching high school orchestra, guitar and composition. She also continued to teach private violin and viola lessons to students as young as three and as old as 75! She moved to Florida in 2008 after her fiancé Heath was offered the tenor position in the Orlando Opera Studio Program. With a new start in a new city she decided it was time to return to where her love of music began—childhood! She is very excited to be working with Grow and Sing Studios and earning her kindermusik license, and looks forward to sharing the joy of music with children and parents in Orlando.
