Jared S

Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Keyboard Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

My teaching style is very down to earth and fully based on the desires of the students. If you want to learn rock music and only rock music that is what we will learn. I may work in some other genres and songs that are directly linked to the style of music that you want to learn. But the student's interests are the main focus. I believe and have come to understand musicians are made in a variety of ways. Read More

I started giving Music lessons 20 years ago. I began giving private lessons and group lessons part time in the afternoons after I finish school in the mornings. Young students come to me asking me for lessons after a Gig or performance. I found very interesting and exiting to see the progress of the students with my own personal methods. We follow a process with disciple but we also have fun and we go to the direction that the student feels more attracted. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Bass Guitar Music Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

My teaching style is focussed very much on what the student wishes to learn. Having a set guide pf progression is necessary but not when forced upon. My style involves exploring music together, understanding the thought process behind different pieces of music and applying concepts in fun innovative ways. I have also designed many musical games that are fun and help students remember things better. With every student I put together a custom lesson plan that is designed to show yardsticks and milestones for the student in how they are moving forward with their instrument. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Jarrell C

Instruments: Voice

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Efficient and consistent practice is the key to doing anything well. If one wants to improve then they must patiently and consistently build the skills they need to be successful. There are no shortcuts, especially when pursuing a life as a musician. To elaborate on what practice is and is not; practice is not singing a song multiple times until you like the product. Practicing is warming up: vocalizing, practicing scales, executing vocal techniques to improving mobility, flexibility, control and higher quality sounds. Then after one has successfully warmed up, which can take 30 minutes to an hour depending on the voice type, then practicing a song includes working on rhythms, pitches, translations if the song is in another language, and interpretation. Then practice small sections of a songs and identifying problem areas. Practicing is taking time to learn a song. The order should be Text/Translations, Rhythm, Pitches, adding words to pitches then interpretation. The process of practicing and learning a song is lengthy but rewarding, and the end product speaks for itself.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Any child is ready to take voice lessons if they show an interest and passion in it. One thing to remember is that not everyone grows at the same rate, so progress maybe be slow and gradual versus having instant growth. Honestly, true growth in the vocal field won't begin until after puberty has occur, and maturation of the vocal chords have begun, but anybody at any age can begin to build musical skills, a highly trained ear, performance confidence and an ability to interpret a song as to make it their own.

When will I start to see results?
Results depends on the age and how advance the student is already. I believe with consistent practice and instruction results can be seen in a month. Again, people grow at different rates so patience and encouragement is the key. Also, with understanding comes more confidence.

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
The instructors that inspired me to pursue music were my middle and high school choir directors. They were amazing, kind and talented instructors that instilled a love for music and teaching within you. They encouraged me to continually improve, and to keep the love of music no matter what field I went into, and to keep singing. This stuck with me throughout life since and I decided to pursue music as my career. It was my college voice teacher that inspired me to pursue performing. I didn't think I was good enough and he convinced that I was and established a love for performing within in.

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing to master with the voice is consistency. Our voice are constantly changing and aren't the same everyday. Any little thing can cause are voices to feel different than what they would normally feel like. Sometimes we're tired, sick, emotional or are just having an off day, so we try to change our entire singing technique to compensate instead of doing what we know works. Its also hard to memorize sensations, good and bad. The good sensations lets us know when we are doing things correctly and the bad ones tell us when we are not. Trusting the good sensations and consistently sticking to them can be fairly complicated even though intellectually it makes sense. Consistency is what everybody, including high level professionals strive for, and is the hardest thing to do.

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.
