Willa G

Instruments: Piano Voice Ukulele Music Keyboard

I am a laid-back, patient, fun teacher, who is always looking for new ways to motivate and inspire her students. Before anything, I make sure my students are comfortable with me and relaxed. I am nurturing and creative in my lessons and aim to build my students' confidence and pride in their musical achievements while teaching self-discipline so that they will reach and celebrate many milestones. I love music, and I love helping spread that passion to my students. Read More

Instruments: Piano Cello

I am originally from Guanajuato, Mexico and in my last year of high school, I decided to take private piano lessons with a local teacher and it was during this time period that I learned classical pieces by Beethoven and Mozart. I also took music notation and I tried a hand at composing, discovering a new way to communicate in terms of music.After moving to the USA, I resume my music education, learning new concepts on classical, blues and pop styles, as well as chord progression and accompaniment pieces.

I always say that rhythm is more important than the notes. Play the right rhythm and the notes will come instead of playing every right note while sacrificing rhythm. I encourage students to make their mistakes loud, proud, and in rhythm so everyone has a better idea of what needs to be worked on most. I also emphasize isolating parts to practice and working backwards. Example: play the last two bars of the song until comfortable with it, now play the last 4 bars, last 6, last 8...etc., whole song.

Gretchen S

Instruments: Piano Organ

I'm a teacher who has experience with ages 8 to 80 (at least!). Collaborating with people at all levels of development is wonderful! Adult beginners find that they know more than they had anticipated. They will be playing familiar songs with two hands together in just a few lessons. My background includes diverse styles and genres, collaborations from church music positions and choral accompanying to teaching piano lessons and working with singers and instrumentalists.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Synthesizer Music Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I think of two things as being central to my teaching style: Fun, and Growth. I think too many music lessons dry out the material, and suck the fun out of something that should be inherently joyful! I try to make every music lesson interesting, and keep my students engaged by giving them material that gets them hyped. Second, I think music is a great chance for people to experience the joy in Growth. Read More

Jacob M

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums Bass Guitar Conga Latin Percussion

I like my students to work on their performance personas, as well as technique and repertoire. I want my students to be engaged and excited about the music they are working on and to practice performing it like the rock star they are! Read More

Heather W

Instruments: Piano Flute Piccolo Music Keyboard

Teaching is very new to me. For beginning students I would start with a Hal Leonard's Essential Elements book. Then when the student progresses the fundamentals I will start to introduce solo pieces for recital performance. For adults I will ask them what would be fun for them to play and make my lesson plans off of that to keep them engaged and having fun no matter what level they are. Read More

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Determining if your child is ready to start lessons, whether it's for music, sports, or any other skill, involves considering several factors. Here are some key indicators to help you assess their readiness: 1. Interest and Enthusiasm: Is your child showing a genuine interest in the activity? Do they express excitement or curiosity about learning it? Eagerness is a positive sign. 2. Age-Appropriateness: Consider your child's age and developmental stage. Some activities may have age recommendations, so make sure your child is within the suggested age range. 3. Attention Span: Assess your child's ability to focus and concentrate. Most lessons require a certain level of attention and patience. If your child can sit still and pay attention for the duration of the lesson, it's a good sign. 4. Physical Readiness: Depending on the activity, your child may need certain physical abilities or coordination. For example, they should be able to hold a pencil if they want to start drawing or be able to handle a musical instrument properly. 5. Emotional Readiness: Consider your child's emotional maturity. Are they able to handle constructive criticism and setbacks without becoming overly discouraged or frustrated? 6. Responsibility: Some activities require regular practice and commitment. Assess whether your child is responsible enough to follow through with lessons and practice routines. 7. Support from the Child: Ideally, your child should express a desire to learn and participate in the activity. Their enthusiasm and willingness to attend lessons and practice are good indicators. 8. Parental Support: Evaluate your own readiness and willingness to support your child in their chosen activity. Are you prepared to provide the necessary resources, transportation, and encouragement? 9. Time Commitment: Consider your family's schedule and whether you can realistically accommodate the time required for lessons, practice, and any related activities or competitions. 10. Consult with Professionals: If you're uncertain, it's often a good idea to consult with professionals or instructors who specialize in the activity your child is interested in. They can provide insights and recommendations based on their expertise. Remember that every child is unique, and readiness for lessons can vary widely from one individual to another. It's essential to support your child's interests and aspirations while being attentive to their individual abilities and needs. Starting with a trial or introductory lesson can also help you gauge their readiness and interest in a particular activity before committing to a long-term schedule.

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.
