Terry is an Adjunct Associate Professor at The University of the Arts in Philadelphia. During her 28-year tenure there she has taught Voice for Dancers, as well as private voice for Musical Theater Majors in the Brind School. Her students have gone on to sing all over the country and beyond on national and international tours, and on Broadway.

In addition to her work at the university, Terry has operated a private voice studio in Yardley for 36 years. High school and college students prepare for careers in all aspects of music and some come just for the sheer joy of learning to sing well. Professional students return to her studio regularly for “tune-ups” and to find new song material as well as for audition preparation. Keeping up with the latest musical theater as well as the most recent developments in vocal pedagogy is a commitment Terry makes to her students and her choirs. Terry can accompany her student’s in their lessons which adds greatly to their musical experience and development.
For nine months of the year, Terry conducts young children in a church choir at the North and Southampton Reformed Church. She has enjoyed this post since 1981 and loves her work with the kids and this gracious congregation. She has directed the Bucks County Singers, a community choir for the past 30 years.
