I'm a creative and motivated educator who loves sharing my passion for music with my students. I hold degrees in music performance from Eastern Michigan University and the University of Texas at Austin. I've been teaching privately and in the public school system in Austin for 7 years. Performing and teaching are my life's work and sharing the experiences I've had with my students helps them realize how music can positively impact their life.
Instruments:
Zack usually balances the time by working first on fundamental/technical aspects of the instrument: intonation, articulation, rhythm, and tone; followed by study of the particular student's chosen repertoire, whether it be jazz standards, rock/pop/blues tunes, classical literature or etudes. Zack believes in teaching students to organize their practice time wisely, isolating specific issues on the instrument. Cultivating personal musical goals with each student is also very important, in order to maximize the student's enjoyment of the time they spend playing.
Instruments:
I am a warm, creative, fun, persistant person. My passion for music and culture are unparalleled. With me a student will be inspired, and I work hard to fill them with a wonder and respect for music that will fuel their creative spirit and help them grow. I love to talk about culture and how music affects us in our daily lives. I am always willing to learn and grow, and encourage my students to do the same.
Instruments:
I have taught students professionally since around my junior year of college. Even before that, in high school, I was always a person who had fellow students follow me around to get help and musical advice. I continued to be this inspirational, helpful and knowledgeable person through college and my graduate studies. While the graduate teaching assistant at U. Memphis for the jazz program, I taught college classes but was additionally a saxophone teacher for the U. Memphis Community Music School as well as a beginning woodwind teacher at Bartlett Music Academy. All of my beginning woodwind students made at least their schools honor bands and my high school students have made all county, all west and all state band placements as well as scholarships to study music in the university.
Instruments:
My love of music began in first grade when I took my first music lesson, and it has only grown since! My greatest joy is connecting to others through music, and my goal is to cultivate a positive, inspiring, and creative teaching environment for students of any age or experience level. For the past 6 years, I have studied techniques to improve breathing, posture, and expression while reducing discomfort and minimizing the effects of performance anxiety. These techniques draw from Body Mapping, the Alexander Technique, the Feldenkrais Method and more, and have extensively improved my own performance and have helped my students improve immensely. Additionally, I have enjoyed a range of performance experiences in solo, chamber, and large ensemble settings, performing in casual concerts, formal recitals, auditions, master classes, and competitions.
