Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
If you are interested in taking piano/keyboard, guitar or voice lessons...I would really like to be your music instructor! I will travel to your home, hoping to make it more convenient for those students that would like their lesson after school hours. You are also welcomed to my home music studio each week for your lesson, conveniently located in Anaheim. To tell you a little about myself, I was raised in a musical family introduced to music at a very young age. Read More
Instruments: Piano Trumpet Saxophone Euphonium
For beginning students, my primary resource is generally the purple Primer level Faber book, however I often use principles of teaching from Simply Music and Piano Safari that allow beginning students to get right into playing some very interesting songs without having to read them. I think reading is important, don't get me wrong. However, I think that the ability to be versatile on the sounds of the piano without the abstraction of music notes can be very helpful for fostering a love for music early on. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Flute Drums Ukulele Recorder Music Keyboard
My philosophy is to teach the student what they want to learn while including basic music theory. I feel it’s important they know what they are doing from the inside out and why. I plan performance opportunities for the students month. This gives each student a tangible goal to work toward. I emphasize that music is another language we can communicate with. Every time we practice we perfect our ability to communicate more fully. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin
Few students get their position good and making a student confident. I talk to the student to work on their methods seriously like clapping the rhythm, going through the repertoire for their school and writing on down on music terms, fingerging, and listening. I go through my student for violin on looking at the posture of the instrument andthe bow. Most students quite because student have other plans and activities. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Bass Guitar Acoustic Guitar
This helps ensure that the student can thrive musically and in life. Also I do a lot of "visualizing" while teaching my students. Often, if they are struggling, I'll tell them to say something like, "I can do it" aloud a few times. I also have them close their eyes and really listen to me playing so they can visualize what it's like to play the chord or song before they even start to actually play. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Drums Synthesizer Music Keyboard
All student clients receive artist development training according to their level of skill, I will complete a basic assessment to find out student goals and dreams. I will give students a professional critique of their performance or skill. Together we devise a performance action plan which outlines the students creative journey and desired outcome. if students would like to perform, they will have an option to perform at their desired place. (school, church, event, video etc.) Students receive a performance assessment which may or may not lead to additional advance training. Read More
Instruments: Piano Drums Latin Percussion
I began teaching drums private lessons 6 years ago in Spain, and have been consistently teaching students in my studio since I moved, 2 years ago, to L.A. All ages and inquires are welcome. It's all about finding the passion for music and having fun with it. Every homework can be a lot of fun and that's what we will look into. Lessons can be in English or Spanish. In piano, I began teaching 3 years ago for beginners that also needed the basic of music theory. Read More
Instruments: Voice Drums
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
Vocalistss have different endurance thresholds but I strongly feel that novice to intermediate singers avoid singing for more than 20 minutes per session and no more than one hour to 90 minutes total per day. It is important to take intermittent breaks to keep your voice from tiring or becoming damaged. More advanced students who are interested in additional musicianship skills like ear training and sight reading should practice these objectives on musical instruments to maintain vocal health and stamina.
For example, advanced singers can practice playing different chord types and voicings on piano or guitar during their warm-up. Most vocal warm-up patterns move chromatically (in half-steps) so this allows the opportunity to practice both harmonic ear training and basic piano skills simultaneously. If piano or guitar is your second instrument then you can study theory and harmony on those instruments while you rest your voice. Rhythmic ear training can be accomplished with a drum pad and a pair of sticks. There’s no need to sing everything you need to practice!
Drummers warm up by playing rudimental sticking patterns for 10-20 minutes on the practice pad. If the student is studying traditional snare drum technique then the second part of the practice session would be playing etudes from an appropriate text. The third part of a drummer's practice regimen is practicing drum grooves (beats) on the full set. This would, of course, include the student's musical style(s) of interest.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
My parents were actually quite musical and their library of recordings at home offered me a diverse palette of musical idioms to listen to while growing up. My mother was a tap dancer who performed on stage with her two sisters when she was a youngster. I remember her teacher my sister and I how to "hoof" to the song "East Side, West Side," which I can still perform to this day. Mom also enjoyed singing jazz standards from the American Songbook. She took voice lessons and I used sneak into the library to listen to the reel-to-reel tape recordings she made when she practiced her repertoire to the old Music Minus One vinyl discs. My father surprised us one day when he came home with a full set of drums. We had no idea that he played as a child. On a whim he had decided to revisit his love for Gene Krupa. I think many of my drumming ideas were inspired from watching him play traditional jazz swing.
