Emily Pratt

Grammar School Music Instructor

B.A. Music Education, Ottawa University

I am honored to be teaching music at the Caritas Grammar School this year. I am a vocalist, specializing in choral music. I graduated from Ottawa University in 2009 with a BA in Music Education. I have been teaching private and group vocal and piano lessons to children and have taught general music and choir at a charter school in Phoenix. My philosophy on music education is based on the methods of Orff and Kodaly. I am trained in Orff and have attended many chapter events and trainings. I believe we learn best by movement, creativity, and having fun. I am a First Soprano in the Phoenix Symphony Chorus and serving as a section rep. I am an Arizona Native and graduated from Chandler High School. I have attended New Valley Church in Chandler with my family since 2020. We recently moved to NE Mesa to be closer to our beautiful mountains and river. I am excited to share, create, and explore God’s gift of music with your students this year. We are all musicians, let’s play!
