I am a Music Therapist that also has a passion for teaching the piano. Learning to play the piano as a child was so beneficial mentally and emotionally, and it created a positive outlet for me during all seasons of life. I continued my studies at Arizona State University under the instruction of world-renown pianist Walter Cosand. During my time in college, I played professionally with my brother and we recorded 2 albums together. Read More

Instruments: Piano

It gave me a different experience on how to teach professionally in music major and be personalized in teaching different people. Encouraging my students with regular practice on their repertoire and inspire them to be creative during practice is my idea to emphasize for intermediate students and youngers, it tends to help them explore more in music and gain their passion for the instrument. Music is not only a subject, but it is also a universal language for people to be together. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Barbara S

Instruments: Piano Music

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Some children will ask for lessons because a friend of theirs is already learning. In general, it is a good indication if your child is ready to start lessons if they show an interest in music. I have seen that all children gravitate to the music instruments they see in schools and special museums. Children just love to touch instruments and hear different sounds. They are naturally curious about creating different sounds. If you have ever gone to a house that has an instrument, see how they flock to it!

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
The best results are achieved with daily practice. It is sometimes hard to find the time to practice every day. But instead of skipping a day, establish a shorter period of practice. To be efficient, ask yourself, "What do I need to focus on today?" Maybe it is a section of a piece, or a technique that is new. Practicing can also be hearing the piece played. Youtube is a good helper. In addition, a lot can be gained by getting another person to listen. This suggestion can be used for both beginner, intermediate and advanced students.

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
My practice session encompasses several parts. I always begin with technical exercises, like scales, arpeggios and octave study. I use Hanon and sometimes finger exercises. I vary them so I don't work on each one daily. After my muscles are warmed up I work on the individual compositions. My programs always consist of a selection of different composers from many classical through modern periods and styles. I choose to focus on a particular section. My practice involves separate hands, different tempi and dynamics.

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I have had several piano and general music teachers in both private and school setting study. Not one teacher inspired me to major in music. Each had a different specialty and style of teaching. In my early years, my teacher held group recitals. I loved the excitement of performing and it was fun to be in the spotlight. In high school I had taken AP courses and liked learning theory. In college I was taught by professional artists who were outstanding as performers and composers. I remember fondly when Arthur Rubinstein gave a Master Class.

When will I start to see results?
Results take the shape in many different ways: For the Parent of a child: - seeing the continued interest in the child - the student showing "off" by playing for friends and family - the child telling the parent that they are having fun! - the child's academic subjects in school show improvement For the student: - being able to read music - being able to play a song - being able to follow a piece of music while hearing it - being able to sight read - being able to perform either solo or with other musicians

More Information About Piano Lessons

  • Lessons in Your Home

    Music lessons in your home offer a convenient option to learn music! Most of our students request in-home lessons for this reason. As long as you have a piano or keyboard in your home, then you should be all set to start your lessons! Children who have never played an instrument before may feel more comfortable studying in their own home, as it may be less intimidating than going somewhere else. In-home lessons also decrease the time and gas money spent traveling to a different location.

  • What is Taught

    Whether you have an interest in learning to play contemporary, jazz, blues, or classical piano, piano teachers in the Musika network can help develop your playing through one-on-one lessons. Throughout your piano lessons, you will cover a wide range of skills ranging from basic playing, to music theory, all the way through more advanced piano study. For those just starting out, the essential elements of piano such as hand position and fingering technique are generally taught before moving on and applying these skills to playing major and minor scales and simple songs using one hand. Students then typically progress to learning chords, such as major chords, and start to put these into practice by learning simple songs. Lessons may also cover the theory side of piano, such as reading music, sight reading, and chord charts. Experienced players can work on certain aspects of their playing, such as improvisational skills, genre-specific playing such as jazz, or developing their repertoire.

  • Adult Piano Lessons

    Adults take up piano lessons for a number of different reasons. Some people want to reintroduce themselves to the instrument having once played it in the past, while others are looking for a new hobby or just to learn a new skill for fun! Whatever the reason, there are major benefits to learning the piano during adulthood. Learning piano technique can help retain fine motor skills and co-ordination, it can keep the mind sharp due to the complex thought processes, and has shown to be good for preserving your hearing. Learning to play the piano can also be therapeutic, and is a great stress reliever.

Each mode comes equipped with its own unique sound structure, and we can select certain modes to write in to convey different moods in music. For example, if you’d like to write a killer blues riff, you might want to consider memorizing the Mixolydian mode shape. This mode identically mirrors the major scale other than the seventh scale degree which goes down a half step. In the key of G, the notes in a Mixolydian mode are: G-A-B-C-D-E-F-G.

Examples of this system include the “Ta-ka-de-mi” system, where the beat is always “ta” regardless of what its note value is, and the Gordon system, where the beat is always “du.” The most readily used example of a beat-based counting method is traditional counting (i.e. “one and two and…”). Although many musicians transfer to the traditional method of counting, they often begin their music education in elementary school with one of the other systems above, which highlights either note value or beat function.
