Tim W

Instruments: Drums

I'm a passionate and motivated instructor and I love working with students and getting them to reach their maximum potential. Growing up, I was influenced by gospel music and played in church at a young age. Later on I gained a lot of marching band experience and training in music theory in the Frederick county Advanced Music Studies program. I have experience playing with many bands around the D.C metro area and have played in a range of small and large venues. Read More

Instruments: Drums Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion

I believe that every student should learn how to read sheet music for his/her particular instrument. I think that learning basic rudiments and basic beats of various styles is beneficial to the student. That being said, I think that the lesson should be based on the student's goals. Read More

Joshua T

Instruments: Drums

My methods include George Lawrence Stone, Ted Reed, Jim Chapin and more.  These are essential material for all ages of students, from beginners to advanced.  The key to our objective will be learning rudiments, sight reading and four way independence.  The lessons will be guided by the students ability level and fun! With an online learning experience the student will gain the same lesson experience as a one on one lesson. Read More

Instruments: Guitar Drums Bass Guitar

After picking up an old drum set that was sitting by a curb waiting for trash, we began a regular music jam. What an anomaly to have a father and son bonding over music! We still gratefully play together regularly when I visit. I went to College at Madison Media Institute in Madison, WI and graduated with an Associates degree in Audio Engineering. I moved to Austin in 2009 after hearing much about it's thriving music scene. Read More

Instruments: Drums Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion

I believe the proper technique is essential in order to be a successful percussionist. We would start by how to hold the stick properly, whether it be matched grip or traditional grip. From there we would move on to how to properly hit the drum and bounce the stick. The first few lessons are usually all about technique and approach and we would mainly stay on one drum or surface, but after that we would move to the drumset or another area that interests the student.

Dennis S

Instruments: Drums

I started teaching at the age of 16 at three different music stores in the Detroit area. My students were often times older than me so I was forced to adapt fast and develop lesson plans that might not be "standard". My lessons focus on technique and musicality so the students can see their skill develop fast, and most of all they can have fun while learning due to my focus on musicality and focusing on the students favorite music to not only play but listen to.

Gregg R

Instruments: Guitar Drums

I love music so much, that teaching it too is rewarding. I have the ability to customize my lessons for each student, as they sometimes process musical information differently. To see a students musical goals evolve is the aim of my lessons. It is important to understand the interests of the student, and the ability to teach the right information based on those interests.

Instruments: Drums

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
-Effective practics ia aomething that has to be done daily. In order to be great, some sort of repetition and or practice is needed to sharpen and refine a set of skills. My best advice for effective practicing is,l to, maintain focus while practicing the task at hand, and always start off slowly. Then, once you have it down, gradually build soeed and precision.

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
- I chose drums because, when I was a child, my mother gifted me with my own drumset. She saw something in me and believed that it was her duty to bring that gift into fruition (ans she did.) Its because of her, that I owe my successes.

Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
- In beginning stages, I use a freeform style of teaching. Its where we get the oppurtunity to understand what the student can and ir cannot skdo. From there, we work on the desired area of interest for the student(s) and begin to develop their feel, style, pocket, ear, and sight-reading (aka, fundamentals).

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
- Yes. I did. His name is, Nate Barnes. - He inspired me simply because, my first time meeting him was my first time hearing an industry professional, play drums live. Not to mention, he’s a blind drummer.

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
- In my opinion, the hardest thing to master on my instrument is, finding your identity. Being abke to have a sound that you like and that you can relate too, is one of the most important things for a musician.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
- You will known if your child is ready to begin, simply by understanding their interest in music. If you see that they are very intrigued and have a strong liking for something, than thats when you can see that they may be interested in taking that fascination further.

If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
- My music degree is in music production and music business. There reasons why i chose those two are very simple. In any art, theres a performance side, and a business side. The reason for both of those, is because thats how we’re abl to negotiate different deals, and keep the business growing and expanding. As far as music business goes, its important to know the little ins and outs of the industry that we’re in. For music production, there are many avenues that one can take to become an active music producer. Having taken courses for music production, it gives me an insight to many different areas of the production side of music, and lets me understand the capabilities thag it can bring.

When will I start to see results?
- You will start to see results, as wuickly as the same day. Many people think that learning is slow and tedious (which it can be at times.) However, with music, little progress is better than no progress. The results can be small or seem minute at times, but thise are where you learn the fundamentals.

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.
