Hey there! So my name is Christian, I am a 23 year old musician from Anchorage, Alaska! Music has been life since I was 9 years old. I wanted to be in a band so badly that I decided to learn all the instruments I could as well as produce my own music. I have been playing shows in the Phoenix area since I was 14 including Warped Tour, The Marquee Theatre and so many more venues around the area. Read More

I have loved playing drums and percussionsince I was very young, and I enjoy teaching students who want to get out there and play. I played in band in grammar school and high school, and my high shool experience opened up opportunities to play for local cummunity theatre and local rock bands. In 1989 I graduated from theUniversity of Miamiwith a bachelors degree in Music Business and a minor in Jazz Performance. Read More

Instruments: Drums Synthesizer

The first lesson I will assess the students playing to get to know them and their goals so we can get started right away. For beginners we'll be focusing heavily on Syncopation and Stick Control, two excellent books. When the student has a grasp on the basics we will work on dynamic control, limb independence, sense of time and ear training. Intermediate lessons include advanced poly-rhythms, trading fours together in different time signatures, fine tuning the drums and advanced sight reading. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums Bass Guitar Synthesizer Harmonica Lap Steel Guitar Banjo Ukulele Mandolin Recorder Conga Latin Percussion

I write all my own lesson materials focusing on what the student needs to know to play, understand, and enjoy music to achieve their goals. I have used several method books in the past but find them all limited or focused on styles or technique that is not what the student wants or needs to learn. I can teach from any established method if that is preferred, but instead enjoy challenging the student to understand what music is and how music is played on their chosen instrument, not just to read.

Ken E

Instruments: Drums Bass Guitar Banjo Euphonium Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Conga Latin Percussion Music Djembe

I bean teaching after studying drums for four years with Kay Carlson. After years of teaching professionally I developed my own curriculum, based on Kay's lessons what I learned of the Mueller technique from Richard Wilson. My students have gone on to win performance awards, first chair positions other recording phenomenon. Reading drum music is of course my method of communicating with my students. This allows me to hand write individual exercises closer to the student's needs. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Cello Drums Bass Guitar Ukulele Mandolin Double Bass Music Keyboard Djembe

Throughout the 8 12 years that I have been teaching I have been learning a lot about many different methods and teaching styles. I always had thought that what I was being taught could have been taught in a more natural and more efficient way. I have borrowed many of my ideas from some of the greatest teachers in history and believe the most in the bel canto method created but David Jacobsen who is an alumni of the Curtis Institute of Music, the greatest school of music in the world.

Teacher In Spotlight

Tony M

Instruments: Violin

Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
I feel music does run in my family as I have an uncle that loves to play the guitar. My father also really enjoys music and picked up on the drums. Although he enjoys a pretty different genre of rock and music than I do, I still admire and appreciate that my father was so passionate in music at one point in his life. Although he doesn't really play his drums as much anymore, I'm glad I picked up some musical traits from him and my other family members. It was a great opportunity to really shine and play the violin.

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I decided that I wanted to make teaching the violin and to also make music a professional career after I graduated from high school. Although I was already teaching under class man the fundamentals to music, that really opened my eyes to the opportunities that music has to offer. Music isn't just an amazing passion that I love and play, it also gives me the opportunity to meet new people and to travel the world. Music is a universal language that everyone understands and enjoys and it is nice to be a part of that. Another reason I decided to pursue a professional music career was because it filled my heart to see my students accomplish many things and really made me proud. That was a feeling I never want to lose.

If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I play the Violin, Flute, and Viola. The reason I picked up more instruments is because I love musics and I love to explore other aspects of it and the ensemble. Like being in an orchestra and then picking up the flute so I can join the band and the marching band. It gave my the opportunity to meet more musicians that have the same goals as I do. It was really nice to explore the music world and to see how every instrument works together to make an ensemble sound amazing. Every instrument in an ensemble is important.

What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
My favorite style and genre to play would have to be romantic, classical, and a lot of modern day music. I really like to explore pieces and try and challenge myself. I do tend to enjoy the more slow and beautiful sounding pieces rather then the fast and edgy ones. Also, when it comes to modern day music, that can range from anything in movies, video games, TV shows, and really anything in our time and age. I do not judge where the music comes from, but if it is beautiful sounding to me whether it is from a movie or video game, I will learn and play it and most likely perform it on my YouTube channel.

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.
