Dave A

Instruments: Guitar Drums

I studied drum lessons at 12 years old and studied jazz and swing drumming early on. I was a percussion major in college then spent a few years in Austin Texas traveling with country, rock and blues bands. Have played on over 20 records. My lessons are one on one and we both play side by side each at a drum set learning and having fun. My home studio is comfortable and provides a great atmosphere for music. Read More

Audrey H

Instruments: Piano Voice Oboe

This experience opened my eyes to other worlds beyond my own backyard and inspired me to expand my original ideas about life and society. After graduating, I moved to Japan and was surrounded by a plethora of opportunity both for music performance and teaching English as a Foreign Language. I quickly realized during my first year there that although I found music performance an exciting career path, my real passion was education. Read More

Eli D

Instruments: Voice

During the initial lesson I sit down with my students and discuss exactly what they are looking to glean from private instruction.  Then we develop a game plan.  Some students achieve at a faster pace than others because talent develops differently from everyone.  I also ensure that every student has strong music theory foundation so that they understand singing isn't just what you hear but what you know in your mind.

Rahul S

Instruments: Drums

The Suzuki method is an internationally known music curriculum and teaching philosophy. The method aims to create an environment for learning music which parallels the linguistic environment. I believe in creating an environment for my students that makes them passionate , comfortable inspires them to learn. Creating an interesting schedule that leads them to ask for more. Understanding my students behavior adjusting my teaching style accordingly helps me deliver a successful student. Read More

Michael L

Instruments: Piano Guitar Electric Guitar Classical Guitar

My teaching style is very different depending on what works for each student so they can learn quick and easy and still make it fun for them. I encourage a lot of my students to have goals on why they want to learn guitar and I will help them achieve their goals and more. With that said I am very demanding when it comes to practice and being ready for each lesson to learn and get better at the guitar. Read More

Ariel C

Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone Drums

Whether beginner or a bit more advanced, I have always liked to return to the basic foundational knowledge and techniques that must be understood well in order to advance and have a good sound and a good technique. For beginners in piano, I like to find books that the individual feels comfortable with and that they completely understand what they are getting themselves into. Every person is different. For snare drum, I like to use a book called stick control which helps students develop mastery in the way they play from precision to striking the snare drum correctly and the way they overall develop their style of playing.

Teacher In Spotlight

Robin T

Instruments: Cello

When will I start to see results?
WIth consistent practicing, you will see/hear progress every week. Sometimes the progress is slow, but it is there! Sometimes, a student will have breakthroughs and giant leaps are accomplished in a short period. No matter what, I tell my students to “trust the process”. By that I mean, follow what your private teacher assigns and you will become better and better!

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
When I was little, I had terrible stage fright. Not only on the cello, but also in little roles I had in school plays. I could barely stammer out my lines! As a cello player, my hands trembled so much when I performed that I could barely play! I was so determined to be a professional cellist, so I read all the performance books I could get my hands on. Many of the techniques I learned to train for the stage were found not only in books for musicians, but also for sports. Between those mental toughness techniques and just pushing myself to get out there, I have conquered stage fright! Not only am I comfortable performing on stage, but also with speaking to the audience. I have grown to love being a performer!

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I started playing the cello at age 9, but it wasn’t until I was 15 years old that I decided I wanted to be a professional musician. The defining moment was when I was performing in my local youth orchestra. We were performing a piece called The Pines of Rome. In one part of the music, I was so moved that I tears came to my eyes. It was so overwhelming and I knew then and there that I wanted to turn my music-making into a career.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
I recommend writing down your game plan before starting a practice session. Take into consideration not only what your teacher assigned, but the amount of time you have allotted for your practice that day. Break down each assignment into manageable chunks and don't worry if you don't get through everything! It's more effective to have quality over quantity!

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
In my experience, when a child can speak and say their ABCs, they can start learning a stringed instrument. Their are many games and songs that help little ones learn while having fun!

Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I have a few standard books I use for most of my students. For scales, Technical Studies, Volume One by Klengel. The author was also a cellist and I like his various options for scale study. It keeps things interesting! For facility, I like a book by Cossman. It may appear tedious, but the exercises are super effective! For more musical etudes, I like Sevcik, Duport, Piatti and Popper. I prescribe these fro my more advanced students and continue to practice them myself. The teach many techniques while remaining beautiful pieces. The book series I assign my beginners is called "Artistry in Strings" by Robert S. Frost. I love how they color-code the strings in the Introductory book. This is particulary useful for little kids beginning the cello. I also use the Suzuki Cello School books. I am certified iin Book 1, but really love using all of the volumes as they are pieces that coincide very logically with students' technical progress. A series that supplements the Suzuki books is called Position Pieces by Rick Mooney. These last two go hand-in-hand for successful skill development.

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.
