Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Flute Harmonica Music Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

My teaching style is relaxed and organic. Don't get me wrong, we will work hard! But it will be fun and enriching. I teach my students to appreciate the music they make, and to listen to themselves for what is working well, in addition to what can be improved. At the end of each lesson, the student and I collaborate to make goals for daily practice. Every few weeks, my students and I collaborate on goals for next few weeks and the next few months.

Instruments: Piano Voice

I believe music is something that everyone should have the opportunity to enjoy and experience. Studying music and learning to sing or play an instrument can be very rewarding and I enjoy creating that opportunity for people of ages and abilities. I try to create an environment that fosters learning and growth in a comfortable atmosphere. Read More

Victoria T

Instruments: Voice Music

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music, pursue their dreams and make them come true! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. Because we all have different begging points. We will set the goals and achieve them together! Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. Singing is a beautiful and interesting process. Read More

James S

Instruments: Guitar Voice Bass Guitar

I began teaching five years ago around the age of twenty. Now, at twenty-five, I have had the opportunity to teach people from all walks of life, with ages ranging from 6 to 60!  I encourage students to practice "perfect practice", which means they are as relaxed as possible when practicing (mentally and physically). Daily practice is also something I cannot emphasize enough, even if only for five or ten minutes a day. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Bass Guitar Ukulele Music Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I started teaching over 8 years ago, and currently teach many private students in their homes. I have also taught at Music And Arts, in many of their facilities over the years. I teach several instruments including guitar, bass, piano, drums and voice. Students of any age or skill level are welcome to take lessons with me, and I can work to achieve their goals—whether it’s just to sing around the campfire with friend or to tour the world and become a professional musician.

Elena V

Instruments: Voice

I believe that everyone can sing! It's just a matter of effort, practice and time. Also I believe that singing is a great pleasure, not to mention it is an art. Maybe I could say that my teaching style is to let my students find their personality, their own voice, in a broadest definition. I want to show them how they can express themselves through the vocal technique, to show them how they can get to know themselves through the vocal technique. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Kathryn R

Instruments: Piano Voice Flute

If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have a Bachelor of Music in Vocal Performance, Bachelor of Arts in Music Theory & History, and Master of Music in Vocal Performance.

What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I would love to performance the role of Anne in "The Rake's Progress" by Stravinsky. It is one of the most beautiful 20th century operas I know.

Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
I have a long lost uncle who is a renowned violist. I didn't discover him until a few years ago and was overjoyed to have him in my life as he is the only other professional musician in my family!

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I would be a veterinarian. I love animals and, strangely, always planned on being a veterinarian in spite of my studying music as a child. It wasn't until my senior year of high school that I realized I could pursue music for a living and I haven't looked back.

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I've been playing music since I was a small child, but one teacher in particular that inspired me to pursue collegiate and graduate education in music was my high school band and choral director. He was so committed to his students and always gave 100% no matter what he did. It was so fun and beneficial working with him during those years and he really expanded my love for music.

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
I believe the hardest thing to master on any instrument is an awareness of how far one has come and allowing oneself to celebrate that! Sometimes, we get caught up in always trying to improve and we lose sight of how much we've already learned. I think it is so important to celebrate tiny victories and be kind to oneself at all stages of musicianship. We're never done learning so enjoy the process!

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Knowing whether a child is ready for lessons depends on many things, not least of all physical development (I.e. can they hold the flute upright?). Has your child expressed a desire to learn an instrument? Do they seem excited about it? Do they understand that practice is vital to learning new skills? If so, I encourage jumping in! Even if your child has some questions or hesitations, I recommend trying lessons out and keeping an open dialogue with them as lessons progress to make sure they are still invested emotionally and mentally and are not only continuing to learn but are having fun!

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
When learning a new skill or a new song, I highly recommend approaching it in short and frequent sessions. Consistency has proven more valuable than, say, practicing once or twice for a long time and not reviewing the new skills for 4-5 days at a time. Most especially with younger students, I encourage parents to start with shorter times of 10-15 minute sessions, once or twice a day, and move up from there.

Easy Piano Songs: 5 Songs with Simple Chords

...are easy piano songs. “Oh Darling” is a terrific song that beginner piano students won’t have a difficult time learning. This song plays homage to American blues music, and the piano features a short staccato treatment with simple chord transitions played over a medium-paced 12/8 rhythm. The E+ chord you see at the beginning of the song is an E Augmented chord (E-G#-B#). Augmented chords tend to sound odd and even a bit jarring. This song is a blast to learn and will most likely get stuck in your head for the next few months. Enjoy!     [Verse] E+ A E Oh___... Read More

Principles of Basic Rock Drum Beats, Part 2

...a rhythm common to traditional Middle Eastern drumming, as well as to a lot of contemporary electronic dance music and hip hop, usually at a pretty fast clip in both cases: If we add a bass drum stroke under the delayed backbeat, it begins perhaps to take on a bit of a Latin feel:   In some (mostly older) funk music, we hear the fourth beat (or second backbeat) delayed instead.   And back to Latin feels, here is an interesting example of a derivation from a Brazilian beat, the bossa nova. The snare plays what is known as a ‘clave’ rhythm- more on that in a ... Read More

...single, and then as the title track to their final album, Let It Be. The album was released shortly after the band’s breakup. Paul McCartney wrote the song and performed the vocals, and it rose to #6 on the Billboard Hot 100.   Many people think that the “Mother Mary” reference in the song refers to the Biblical Virgin Mary, but McCartney has clarified that the “Mary” refers to his own mother, who passed away from cancer when Paul was a teenager. The title words, “Let It Be,” are inspired by actual words from his mother as well, rather than ... Read More

Jazz Exercises for the Saxophone: Thinking in 12 Keys

...processes external information that fast. People that rely too heavily on logic can also be limited. I worked with a bass player once who stuck completely to reading the chart. If the singer came in after four bars of interlude when it was supposed to be eight, the bass player would be off for the rest of the chart. Remember, music is an aural art. Ideally, you should employ a healthy mix of using logic and using your ear so that you can succeed in both playing and thinking in 12 keys. The past couple of blogs have probably been pretty dry. The exercises in this blog will ... Read More

The Kodály Approach – More than Hand Signs

...the Kodály approach, and most elementary music pedagogical approaches. If you walk into a music classroom, there are times where it may seem chaotic or unfocused to the naked eye. So much learning takes place in ways that don’t feel like learning to students, which is the basis of their appeal. Take for example, a game many children play inside and outside of the music classroom, “Ring Around the Rosie.” There are so many reasons to play this game, and not always for inherently musical reasons. First and foremost, making a circle can be tricky. When it’s time to move ... 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.

Ok

Are you sure that's your only availability? The more availability you easier it will be to arrange a teacher for you.
