As a teacher, Mrs. Bayles has over ten years' experience teaching all levels and genres of voice study as well as beginning-intermediate piano. Mrs. Bayles's desire as an instructor is that each student is given personal and dedicated guidance to reach their own goals as musicians and performers -- no matter the level of skill or interest -- and one of her greatest sources of joy is seeing the excitement and confidence her students gain as they accomplish those goals. She currently has a thriving voice studio at Woodward Academy in College Park, where she also assists the Choir Department. Her students have been successful at All State, Honor Choirs, and local competitions. She also has a private voice and piano studio in the Buckhead neighborhood.
