Alexis E

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin

I began teaching lessons while workibg on my Master's degree. While tutoring a classmate on guitar, I realized that I really enjoyed teaching and decided to pursue more students. My music therapy training gives me a unique approach to education enabling me to tailor all of my students lessons to their personal goals and needs. I enjoy teaching a variety of styles, from classical to contemporary, as well as giving my students performance opportunities to really be able to challenge themselves. Read More

Instruments: Guitar Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I like the the traditional music theory method of learning and how it utilizes a musical environment, it's not just about guitar it's about absorbing musical harmonies and finding where it is your piece will fit. Personally, I know that a good guitarist can be trained but great guitarist have a thirst for it. Everybody is going to mess up so their is no sense in talking about how bad or how good someone is.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Trumpet Trombone Clarinet Synthesizer Ukulele Recorder Euphonium Keyboard Acoustic Guitar

To that end, though in the student's eyes it is not the most exciting part, we do learn those things. For students studying other instruments I frequently refer to the piano as it is the key to understanding music theory. Without that knowledge a student won't realize their potential, so we do indeed spend some time on it. All in all, my approach is akin to trying to learn about all that music can give us. Read More

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

I have worked with students aging from 6 with no training to 55 with 30 years of training. Every student is different and presents unique challenges. I find that the less a student know the easier it is to see improvement. Often with older players there are fundamental basics that are working against them that need correction. You can not unlearn something, only learn something knew. The most important thing in music education is starting them right because muscle memory is extremly hard to change. Read More

Zachary H

Instruments: Guitar

My teaching started in High School, when i received a job offer to teach guitar at Rhapsody School of Music. I taught students for about 2 years, and once I graduated High School, I moved to Flagstaff to get my degree. Once I was living in Flagstaff, I taught and helped my peers with guitar and music theory, which made my love for music grow even more. I love working with any student that has an interest in music.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Classical Guitar

We start with fundamentals of music theory, ear training, and composition. We find the songs and styles you want to learn and then make them make sense, through small assignments, that build into the finished product. If you can see the shapes on the guitar and subdivide the beat into equal parts, we can start to play the tunes you like. I a do not believe in slow progress. i believe you can learn and improve consistently, while having fun. Read More

Aaron W

Instruments: Guitar Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet Euphonium Mallet Percussion Music Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I've been teaching privately for 15 years and working with music stores and schools in their band programs/music classes for 8 years. I've worked with Brian Wilson at Summit Academy, Jeff Quamo's students at Mesa High and with Mary Price in her general music classroom at Summit Academy. I'm currently in multiple ensembles as well as getting back into choral music which is where I get my experience in musical phrasing and emotion. Read More

Rhythm Notation: Learning to Read Basic Rhythms

...and comprehend even the most basic rhythms. Today I’ll walk you through some rhythm notation basics to help you get confident with your rhythm reading no matter what instrument you play.     Music Notation Vs. Rhythm Notation   Rhythm notation falls under the broader category of music notation. Its purpose is to accurately describe the rhythms we hear in the world around us and in the pieces of music we’re trying to play and understand. This form of notation isn’t any different than music notation unless it’s notating music that’s to be played on a non-pitched instrument like a... Read More

Why Drummers Use Stick Control

...a number of ways: in creating or varying basic rock, jazz, or funk (and beyond) patterns, in creating fills, and in soloing.   We’ll look at just one basic exercise in Stick Control and how we can apply these three methods (understanding that almost all of the book- if not in fact all- can be used in this way).   Exercise #5 is famously the rudiment known as the paradiddle (minus the standard accents):   Looking at our 1st category of variations, let’s add just a couple of simple foot (bass drum and high hat) patterns:   Of course, there is no ...

Types of Trumpets: Keys, Size, History, and Performance Practice

...orchestral playing because of its slightly brighter sound. The C trumpet is pitched a step higher than the B flat (due to slightly shorter tubing), and as a result, the tone projects a little bit more than the B flat. Apparently, that slight increase in brightness is important enough that the C trumpet is now the instrument of choice for American orchestral players. Transposing trumpet music while playing a C trumpet is not difficult, since the difference is only one step. The D Trumpet Once instrument makers realized they could essentially make a trumpet for every occasion, a D trumpet came ... Read More

Five Factors to Consider When Buying a Piano

...piano, the size of your living space should be taken into consideration. For example if you live in a small apartment in New York City, a larger piano may not be feasible, whereas if you are taking piano lessons in Houston and have a larger house, a grand piano could be a good option. The acoustics of the piano will also be impacted by the size of the room, so that should be taken into consideration as well. Upright pianos and baby grand pianos are commonly used in learning and practicing settings, but full sized keyboards with weighted keys are ... Read More

The Best Age to Start Piano Lessons

...I started piano lessons when I was 3 years old, when I was still talking gibberish. In retrospect, I think I could have waited a year or two to start piano lessons. I wasn’t ready emotionally, but my mother, being an eager parent, felt the earlier the better. As a piano teacher today, I am often asked the question: what is the best age to start piano lessons? Generally speaking, I would recommend ages 4 or 5 and older—but since every child is unique in his development and abilities, I would advise you to review the following. Emotional readiness: Emotional maturity is necessarily because learning to play the piano requires patience, concentration and repetition. The student should be able ... Read More

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.
