Joy Dertinger

New Lenox: Piano

About Joy

 

 

Joy has been playing piano for close to 20 years and has been in education for over 10 of those years.

Joy plays multiple instruments and has toured the US and Palestine with their college orchestra. 

​

With a background in social services and education, Joy believes in the importance of establishing connection with students and incorporating students' interest into lessons. Some of Joy's best memories in music are of teachers believing in and encouraging them to let themselves shine through their music. 

​

Joy's favorite city is Chicago, but they also love the peace and tranquility of nature, particularly waterfalls, which they chase every chance they get.

 

A nerd through and through, some of Joy's favorite things to do include analyzing Steven Universe characters, watching "The Great British Bake-Off," studying biology and chemistry, and of course, listening to and playing music. Joy is a linguistics student, spouse, and parent, and will never turn down a good coffee.
