Instruments: Piano Voice Organ

In order to succeed at the keyboard, a student's technique must be ahead of their literature. This is why I use a well-developed system of technical exercises that are easy to understand and implement that allows the student to quickly gain mastery of the instrument. These techniques were thoroughly developed and taught by my mentor, Dr. Jill Sprenger, and I have seen students of all types succeed with them. I also use a self-paced program of theory skills and ear-training exercises that complement the wide variety of literature that excites each student. Read More

Ryan H

Instruments: Piano

At an early age, I knew music was what I wanted to do with my life, and how I knew I would be able to touch people. My teaching experience goes back to my second year at my university and I fell in love with teaching after the very first lesson. In a never dull, quick paced setting, that accentuates each individual student's needs, I hope to never leave you bored, yet eager for the next session. Read More

Craig L

Instruments: Piano Trumpet Drums Bass Guitar Music Keyboard Acoustic Guitar

I have performed in music ensembles since childhood. As an elementary school student I performed in regionally recognized handbell, soprano recorder, and choir ensembles and I am a strong advocate of these types of ensembles at the elementary level. As a middle and high school student I participated in jazz, concert, symphonic, and marching band. While attending Morehouse College in Atlanta, Georgia I participated in Orchestra (trumpet), Glee Club, and Jazz Band (piano) and have extensive experience performing in symphonic and concert ensembles ensembles.

Instruments: Piano

My teaching style depends very much on what your goal is in deciding to learn to play piano. I can teach you how to play classical piano, piano improvisation, piano accompaniment, or how to play in a certain style with a musical group. Your goal as a student determines the approach we take. That being said, typically, I take a three pronged approach toward teaching: 1. Theory; teach the fundamentals of sight reading and music theory in small increments and apply them by creating custom musical exercises. 2. Read More

Jessy (Ya-Chen) L

Instruments: Piano Cello Music Keyboard

I am a patient and encouraging instructor who enjoys sharing music with people and working with students to teach music. I started my piano lesson at age of seven and cello at age of nine. I got my bachelor's degree from National Taiwan Normal University where the country I am originally from and my master's degree from Northern Illinois University. As a cellist, I regularly play in several orchestras around DFW area such as Richardson Symphony Orchestra, Irving Symphony Orchestra, and Plano Symphony Orchestra. Read More

Teresa L

Instruments: Piano

I move at whatever pace is appropriate for the particular student. We set long-term goals so they have something they are working towards and are rewarded for hard work. Learning how to play the piano is about so much more than just the piano! The benefits reach far beyond music, helping them with school, self-confidence, and many other aspects in their everyday life. Although we do follow a method book for at least the first few years, we add additional solo music, and I let them choose from several level-appropriate pieces so that they are enjoying what they are learning.

Michael P

Instruments: Drums

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practicing should always be a musical experience. Even mechanical exercises can soothe the soul and open the mind the way singing your favorite song can do. Every moment on your instrument is precious and the more special moments you have on your instrument, the deeper your relationship with it will be. If you can be passionate both about the mechanics and the magic of your instrument, you will be able to make it speak profoundly for your own enjoyment and for others. This all requires you to be thoughtful and careful about how you spend time with your instrument. Me methodical. Create goals that will guide what you do during practice, and why.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Are they willing to talk about their instrument even when they're away from it? Are they willing to watch others play it and to learn by observation? When it comes to drums, this is especially important. If your child enjoys banging a drum, but doesn't seem interested in allowing someone to talk to them about it or show them more about it, or if your child forgets about the drum the minute it's out of sight, they may not be ready for lessons. This does not mean they're not musical or that the drums aren't for them. It just means they need more time to enjoy banging the drum on their own before they attempt to undergo structured learning.

When will I start to see results?
I have a history of getting noticeable results from my students within the first week. You'll be playing rhythms that are legitimate, and that will make others want to pull out a guitar and play along! What will be more significant, though, will be your ability to keep achieving new results and to not stay in the rut of what is immediately achievable. You can be confident playing basic rock music after about 3 months. Then, after about a year, you'll have confidence playing basic funk rhythms. After two years you'll have basic competency in jazz, and after 4 years you'll be able to play Latin music and make people dance!

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My first teacher, Jaime Jesperson opened my eyes to the fact that the most exciting music to play on the drums was not the music I was excited about in middle school. He inspired me to learn funk, jazz, and Latin music. My second teacher, Jay Lawrence, then inspired me to seek a music scholarship that ultimately became my ticket into college and earning a BA in Music. In addition, my high school jazz band instructor Jim Kurchner was a true master. The music he challenged us to learn and the level of excellence that he demanded led me to some of my life's happiest moments.

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I was only thirteen years old and wanted to be in a rock band. Since most kids my age were drawn to the guitar, I chose the drums so I wouldn't have to compete so much for a place in a band. Luckily, my family already owned a drum set which my sister had used for a few years and then packed away in storage. My mom allowed this because she wanted me to take at least some kind of music lessons after I had refused to continue with piano lessons.

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I'm most proud of my jazz trio which consistently becomes the favorite feature of events we play for (see mikepecktrio.com). I'm also proud of my musical accomplishments that have gone beyond drumming, which include my own original compositions of choral music, performing with the Salt Lake Choral Artists as a baritone, and forming my own choir called the Kekchi Choir, which has traveled to Guatemala to perform music in the Kekchi language as a way to inspire others with high quality musicianship.

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.
