About Us
About The Studio
Rumbles Music Studio offers piano and voice lessons to clients in Northwest Indiana, as well as online voice lessons and music theory tutoring. Currently enrolled students range in age from 4 to 40 years old!
The studio opened in the summer of 2018 while Hailey was home on summer break from college, teaching lessons out of her home in St. John, IN. Upon graduation the following year, she continued to take on more private students on top of her full-time job as a Music/Choir Teacher. After four years in the classroom, Hailey left public education to pursue full-time private lesson teaching.
Lessons at Rumbles Music Studio are student-centered, engaging, rigorous, and most of all, FUN! Hailey gets to know every student and tailors each lesson to fit their needs and abilities. There are incentive programs in place to encourage dutiful practicing as well as increase enjoyment for the younger kids. Two annual recitals allow students to show off everything they have learned and continue to grow in their musicianship and confidence.
Students of all ages and abilities are welcome at Rumbles Music Studio. There is a love of music in all of us, it just needs room to flourish!
Meet The Teacher!
Ms. Hailey Rumbles graduated with a Bachelor of Music in Music Education from Millikin University in 2019. She taught choir and music in public schools for four years before deciding to focus on the studio full time.
Hailey has loved children for as long as she can remember, and has loved teaching since high school. She loves to watch her students succeed, especially when the journey may be a little rough along the way. Hailey believes every student has the potential to be a great artist, if only they have the space to cultivate that talent and passion into something amazing.
In her free time, Hailey loves watching YouTube, writing, listening to (and singing!) music, and hanging out with her family and her beloved cat, Mango. She also performs with South Suburban College Orchestra and Kankakee Valley Symphony Chorus.
Teaching Assistants
Ms. Evelyn
Evelyn Knezevic is a teen musician who has been playing piano for two years. She is self-taught in guitar as well, transferring her knowledge from piano lessons and music theory. She is also very art-centered, and could be called a “jack of all trades”! Evelyn discovered her love for piano by attempting to teach herself, only to quickly end up in lessons at Rumbles Music Studio. In her free time, she loves to pursue her artistic interests like sewing, embroidery, drawing/sketching, painting, sculpting, writing, and of course music. She has a goal of becoming proficient in at least three different instruments over the course of her lifetime! She loves watching over people pursue their passions as well, and she loves to help wherever she can. She has a deep love for education and knowledge in general, and believes that everyone can benefit from being a lifelong learner. She has been a member of the Rumbles Music Studio team since October 2024.
Ms. Faustina
Faustina Kim is currently a Senior at Lake Central High School with a passion for music and teaching. Her love for music stems from piano lessons she took in elementary school, her involvement in Lake Central’s choir program, and her experience acting in local musicals. Faustina has lots of experience with children, with two younger siblings at home and a background teaching private swim lessons as well. She believes that every student learns slightly differently, and it is important to stay positive, engaged, and energetic when teaching children. When Faustina is not teaching, she loves working out, reading, and singing. She has been a member of the Rumbles Music Studio team since May 2024.
