Instruments: Guitar Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

Keeping my students positive and inspired is my goal when teaching, and nothing is more inspiring than hitting landmarks and seeing your own progress! I encourage my students to learn at their own pace, and remind them that learning a skill is not a one size fits all scenario. I encourage my students to be as experimental, open minded and curious as possible. Setting realistic goals is always how I end every lesson, as you should always have a goal you're working to achieve. Read More

For beginning students who are children, I typically start with Hal Leonard's Essential Elements. Once the student has progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals, I will begin to introduce solo repertoire appropriate for their first recital performance. For adults, I try to find out what the student is interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and fun, no matter their ability level. I am able to teach any genre at any level. Read More

Every stage is different. With beginners, you want them to learn the notes first, then the chords, the harder chords..etc. With intermediate players, you can begin teaching them songs and giving them songs to work on. Advanced players is all about finding the right tone and the right sounds, most likely helping by providing guitar work with them. It all depends on the student! But I know that for children, you start with the basics and work your way up! Read More

I excel at taking the most self-motivated students to the highest level, and I don't hold anyone back in order to stay with a pre-determined method. All students learn to count the beat in a FUN and entertaining way. I save the last few minutes of every lesson for "musical games", which are usually ear training. All of my students, even young children, can name strings, notes, and even chords by ear, all from playing this game. Read More

Instruments: Guitar Drums Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I am a passionate instructor who loves working with students of all ages and experience levels. I have had the opportunity to be a part of many church bands big and small as well as play for various other bands (country, punk rock, pop). I even had the opportunity to open for the band Skillet. Being able to instruct and teach is one of the joys of my life. I enjoy seeing the music/instrument "click" for the student as it did for me. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Synthesizer Keyboard Electric Guitar

Hello! While playing music is one of my favorite thing in the world, it doesn't seem to compare to teaching others how to make music. I'm a University of Michigan student who loves producing and jamming out. I started my musical career at age 10 with the cello, but pretty quickly changed to the piano. My formal education is lacking, but I've spent the last 12 years learning theory and performance through books, articles, and lots and lots of trial and error. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar

I let the student decide what the lesson is to be like. There are a lot of things to cover, but I will adapt what I think is the best teaching style for the student based on things like what he or she wants to learn. If you are interested in electronic music production, I can even teach lessons in Ableton Live. I am very well versed in all aspects of pro audio and would love to share and teach my knowledge.

“Wake Me Up” - Avicii

...This creates more energy and motion. Perfect for increasing the intensity of the song, especially during the chorus.   Basic Fingerstyle Technique I’ve included this section for those of you that may be interested in fingerstyle playing. The right hand is notated as follows: P = Thumb I = Index M = Middle A = Ring   I find that using a pick to strum the chords can be a little too harsh sounding for the mood of some songs. For that reason, I suggest developing your fingers to pluck and strum the chords. Let’s begin by assigning the right-hand fingers... Read More

How To Find The Motivation To Practice

...anything worthwhile in music, you’ve got to invest the time and the effort. But you also have to accept that you’re never going to be perfect. Falling short, messing up, and not getting what you want is inevitable in music and life. If you lead a life that’s purpose is to avoid mistakes and risk, you’ll probably just quit playing an instrument the minute you realize how hard it is. Coping with failure is an important part of learning. Failure is a motivating force that puts us in the right direction. Whether you’re a seasoned musician or someone totally new to music, it’s a ...

How To Find The Motivation To Practice

...you have your heart set on learning how to play guitar, but the only instrument you can afford is one from Wal-Mart, then you have a challenging road ahead of you. In recent years, Wal-Mart, Best Buy, and Target have started to sell cheap guitars and keyboards that are nearly impossible to learn on. I’ve played guitar for 15 years and I can’t make a Wal-Mart guitar sound good, so chances are you won’t be able to either. If you’re serious about learning an instrument, buy a decent one to learn on. If you can’t afford to buy an instrument now, you can look ... Read More

...to spend my lesson time on other, more fun things, I had to be able to get through my scales quickly and accurately. Feeling comfortable playing all of your scales is necessary and fundamental, and is a prerequisite to practicing the material I’m going to lay out in this blog.   Once you have your major scales down, what are some other basic exercises that can be practiced? Taking a few notes from a scale and practicing them in 12 keys can be less daunting and more practical in application. You would never play a C major scale in it’s entirely ... Read More

The Best Age to Start Viola Lessons

... What is the best age to start viola lessons? The viola is a beautiful instrument that is slightly warmer and mellower in tone than its smaller cousin, the violin. Parents deciding to start their child out on viola should know just a few things before beginning lessons. Our recommended starting age for the viola is five or six, though exceptions can certainly be made for a younger student who is capable of handling the instrument properly and with sufficient strength in the fingers and hands. The viola is held in the same way as a violin, but it is slightly larger and may be better suited for students already familiar with the violin. Child-size models of the viola are also less commonplace than for the violin. There are some care taking measures for the viola, including maintenance of the bow and strings, that may prove somewhat difficult for younger students. A lot of students begin formal viola training as they enter their school orchestra. While taking viola lessons, children will begin to learn how to handle the instrument correctly, read music, and develop their overall skills as an overall musician. ... 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.
