Piano Lessons Woodford County, KY

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Synthesizer

With a lot of my piano ability I have taught myself and typically amaze people when playing a song. Not that I'm any better than anyone else but the gift that I have is something very precious. Therefore I love sharing this gift with others. I have been teaching for nearly a year now and have been very successful at it. I have students ranging from 5 years old to 55. I teach from primary theory books and also teach to play by ear. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Keyboard

I first started teaching piano when I was just 16 years old. I began with only one student and eventually gained more and more students through referral. I have now been teaching piano for 8 years and have significantly increased my clientele through word of mouth only before teaching with Musika. Much of my experience is in teaching young children who are absolute beginners, since most of my students have started with me having no previous musical experience. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Voice

Nothing makes me feel better than seeing my students enjoy their time with the instrument! Therefore, I feel that it's necessary to fit my teaching style to the student's desire. I start the first lesson by asking them about the music that they listen to to get a sense of their music style. Furthermore, I am interested in the student's goals for their lessons. After asking these important question, I can contruct a personalized lesson plan based on the student's wants and needs. Read More

I used other activities such as walking, running, dancing, and boxing to demonstrate performance techniques and to make students understand the importance of natural gesture, inertia, and relaxation.

I organized regular recitals to encourage students' daily practice and nurture their public performance skills to overcome stage fright. Read More

In addition, I like to incorporate my student's interests into their goals. For instance, for my guitar students, I like to set a realistic goal (a song they want to be able to play) and tailor my lessons towards my student being able to play that, while at the same time learning their fundamentals, or whatever else is in their lesson plan for that session. I find this to be both rewarding and inspiring. Read More
