Voice Lessons Shelby County, AL

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Organ, Keyboard

I typically will start each student with preliminary lesson that allows me a chance to assess the student's current level, and knowledge base. This preliminary lesson also gives me a chance to do what I call a "method book fitting" this allows me to assess how compatible different method books are with my students personality and learning style. At the end of the first lesson, I typically will leave the student with a loaner copy of the method book I have "fitted" them with and a basic assignment for the first week. Read More

Instruments: Guitar, Voice, Bass Guitar

I usually ask a student what they are interested in, be it chords or note reading, or learning songs. Many times a new student will know basic chords and I will review and suggest adjustments to habits developed during their self-instruction period. Teaching songs that interest the student is important, as this is a motivator to continue lessons. I also help the student with immediate tips to correct technique problems with music they've already learned I require new bass students to learn to read, and also teach them popular songs.

I will admit will full confidence that I am the type of teacher to keep it laid back and casual, but will not let my student stop giving me their full effort. If anything, they will be disappointing themself in the future, and I refuse to allow that to happen. If I do not make my student laugh in the first ten minutes of the lesson, then I have failed to make them comfortable for that lesson. Read More
