Piano Lessons in Midvale, UT

Instruments: Piano Violin Keyboard

I began teaching lessons at age 14 to young neighborhood beginners. As I progressed through the years, I expanded my range of student ability from beginner to upper intermediate, and from ages 6 to... well, older than me and I'm now 60! I have taught hundreds of students and enjoyed every one of them. I find that the more effort, especially in consistent and efficient practice (to be explained and demonstrated by me), that my students put in, the more pleasure and satisfaction they get out of it!

Instruments: Piano

I'm a passionate and dedicated instructor who loves cultivating and sharing my love for music with others. I am currently a student at Brigham Young University studying psychology. I am the founder and director of the Timp Musicians performing group, and I have a great love for composing, arranging, and performing original works for the piano, instrument ensembles, and choirs. Outside of music, I love volleyball (and all things sports), anything outside (especially hiking), reading, and psychology. Read More

Instruments: Piano

I have been teaching since high school, and have taught students of all ages, ranging from age 5 to adults. I have had multiple opportunities to perform and accompany for various groups within my education at BYU, and have composed many pieces for piano, orchestra, and small groups. My students tend to progress very quickly and have a strong understanding of how to practice and what tools they can call on to reach their individual goals. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice

For most students on piano, I typically use the Faber series to learn technique and theory simultaneously. It’s important to be able to gain that knowledge of theory early to help students be more independent. For adults on piano, we would work together to find repertoire to fit their skill level and interest to keep things engaging and relevant. Voice is much more individualized since every instrument is unique. Read More

I like to teach each student or client that I work with as I assess what is best for each individual. I am very organized in my work to always be aware of where each person that I work with is at and which way each person is going as I work with him/her. I adapt each program to the individual so that there is no confusion, misunderstanding, or misinterpretation of people involved with the teaching in any way. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Flute

I encourage my students to practice smart instead of long. This is especially important for young students. I teach my students to self-evaluate their own playing. When difficult areas are recognized, this is where the practicing focus should be. Above all, music should be enjoyable! Hard work disguised as FUN is my goal. I am great at giving positive feedback. I enjoy celebrating success. I feel that it is important to let the student set the pace and then encourage from there. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice Drums Bass Guitar Orchestral Percussion Conga Keyboard Acoustic Guitar

My method of teaching is that I always start from the theoretical part of every instrument or skill I teach because if they don’t have the background understanding they will be limited in their performances. I motivate by telling them my story how I started with no instrument I used borrow a two octaves keyboard from a choir member just to learn the piano my self I had no internet and no money so if I was able to learn in that condition they can do better.I teach the secrets of becoming a professional musician or music producer which one of them is consistency.
