Linda Johnson is a seasoned music educator, songwriter, and author with over 25 years of experience in the classroom and beyond. She began her career in Dallas ISD as an elementary music teacher, later expanding her impact by teaching secondary choir for eight years. Returning to elementary education, she incorporated songwriting, music technology, and arts integration into her teaching, helping students connect music with creativity and culture.

In addition to running a private piano studio, Linda served as a district leader—clinician for the elementary honor choir and lead music teacher—before transitioning out of the classroom in 2019. Today, she remains an active and sought-after music consultant and choir clinician throughout the Dallas–Fort Worth area, continuing to inspire educators and students alike.

At his school, the motto is “Pursue Perfection Through Private Lessons,” and Charles offers instruction in guitar, bass guitar, drum set, congas, percussion, voice, piano, and strings. Whether in his studio, schools, camps, or clinics, Charles continues to inspire the next generation of musicians to reach their full potential.
