Abel A

Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Double Bass Tuba Music Electric Guitar

I love the Bass guitar and Double Bass and it is my goal to find and teach the students who have this same passion for the instrument. In my opinion, the bass is the most essential instrument in ANY ensemble and so if you learn to play the bass well enough you are on the track for success in any genre you wish to play. I am a very relaxed individual and this transfers to my teaching style. Read More

As the founder of a music program, I am a passionate and caring instructor who loves working with students of all ages and thrives on making lessons a great experience. Born and raised in San Antonio, I began taking piano lessons at six years old and started composing music at age 12.

Jack M

Instruments: Piano Voice Synthesizer Keyboard

I have been described by more than one student and several parents who have observed lessons with me as “energetically laid-back”. I have a great passion for music, and it comes through in the excitement I share with my students, with the hope that it inspires them to seek greatness for themselves in all aspects of their lives. We will set goals together, track their progress and they will feel challenged and pushed at times, but empowered with the knowledge that anything can be overcome with patience, persistence, and practice.

Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone Drums Organ Harmonica Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Latin Percussion Music Keyboard Djembe

I begin with a meeting. A meeting about you...How you are doing this fine day. We will make GREAT MUSIC together and learn more about music and the world's vibrations together. I want you to tell me what it is you want me to teach you, and in the process I will learn how you learn. You teach me while I teach you; then the music will flow from ALL DIRECTIONS! =) My philosophy is a simple one. "If you put the work in you will improve." We will go at the pace that you desire and what you show me you are prepared for. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Neil D

Instruments: Piano Violin Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet Drums Synthesizer Recorder Electric Violin Fiddle Orchestral Percussion Music Keyboard

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Well yes, it was my first band director. Granted that I had already chosen to be in band as an elective in middle school, I had never really played an instrument before and my musical knowledge was practically nonexistent. But his approach towards teaching was simple enough for me to make the connection between learning how to properly hold my instrument and obtain a decent tone from it all while learning to read music. But my first band teacher also provided time during lunch and after school in which to practice, and whenever available, he would help with my intonation, articulation, breathing skills, and even dynamics (volume) and this encouraged me to keep practicing which only results in an upward-spiral of skill building! towards continued musical progress!

When will I start to see results?
I focus on making goals--set an objective for each day! Instead of time being the measure of effort, set a goal for both skills and performance! For example, one needs to practice exercises just to maintain current skills...so include this in your regular practice repertoire and focus on HOW to play them properly. But focus on a song...break the piece down into sections (if it is a whole page or longer in length) and focus on individual measures at a time. With each attempt, determine what errors are occurring and WHY--then, by process of deduction, you will rule out mistakes and improve your odds of accuracy until you are so familiar with WHAT to do that you can play this properly 10 times out of 10! Thus, every practice session should yield results...each session is one small building block towards successful performance of a song and mastery of your instrument!

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
I have students as young as 3 and some of my students have special needs. However, you certainly know your child better than I do: What is their temperament like? I have but one rule: You have to WANT this...if this musical interest is not made a desired priority ahead of perhaps other extra-curricular activities, then the student will not put outside practice into this and it will become a downward-spiral. Vice-versa, with my positive energy and enthusiasm, I can keep any willing student engaged for a 30-minute, 45-minute, or even 1 to 1.5 hour session.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Find a place where you can focus and pick a routine time in order to develop the habit of regular practice. Instead of practicing for a designated amount of time, make a goal (e.g., Today I am going to work on this song, and I will finish when I can play it correctly 10 times out of 10 attempts!) If the song is multiple pages in length, then focus on just one section of it per day and break it down into measures. Various exercises such as scales and other rudiments need to be practiced in order to maintain skills. But always make time (even if it's just 5 minutes) for playing just for fun! I strongly encourage this!

...a perfect 5th interval is naturally found in every note already through something called the overtone series. When you play a note, you’re actually playing many notes at the same time, and the perfect 5th interval is the most prominent added note that naturally occurs. These intervals are literally inescapable in music, and one can be found in the opening melody of the theme from Star Wars. The relationship between a C and the G seven half-steps above is a perfect 5th.   Minor 6th (m6) Eight half-steps above root- “The Entertainer,” by Scott Joplin   This interval is heard ...

...more you practice forming your embouchure when playing long notes, the more automatic it will become, and the easier it will be to make a great sound on faster notes.   Once you feel confident in your tone when playing slow notes and transitions, try this to test your tone when you’re playing quickly: Start from the bottom note of any scale or arpeggio. Play quickly up or down the scale or arpeggio, and then pick a note to stop on. You should focus on immediately having the best sound possible when you hit the note you’re going to stop on. ...

Parents are expected to attend, take notes, and pay active attention at lessons. Sometimes, this means that the mom or dad is actually helping the student shape a bow hand, or is copying a movement the teacher demonstrates, to help with violin posture. Parents take pictures, film videos, and write things down so that, when it comes time to practice at home, everyone remembers what they’re supposed to work on. Mom or Dad ... Read More

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.
