Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice

If you are interested in taking piano/keyboard, guitar or voice lessons...I would really like to be your music instructor! I will travel to your home, hoping to make it more convenient for those students that would like their lesson after school hours. You are also welcomed to my home music studio each week for your lesson, conveniently located in Anaheim. To tell you a little about myself, I was raised in a musical family introduced to music at a very young age. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Saxophone Flute Bass Guitar Music Keyboard

I believe in using your ears as the most important tool. Which means I believe in playing music rather than reading it. Growing up playing music by ear. I prefer this way of teaching and only use sheet music as an assistant to help the student get to a certain goal. As a teacher I can help you grow your abilities on your instrument. Help you achieve the cool warm sound you want from the saxophone. Read More

Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar

I like to work based on what each student needs. I encourage the student to take his or her own interests into account on a regular basis. I also use a basic foundation to determine what the student needs to attack first, such as technique, harmony, ear trinning and scales. Of course, finger, pick, and slap styles are included. All kind of styles & genres are welcome, from the more basic to the more complex genres. Read More

Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

Setting realistic goals is definitely a good place to start. Also, I encourage transcribing music in small sections, and to always start slow and take deep breaths, as this will reduce the student's normal anxiety and has done wonders in my own playing as well. Using a rhythm reference like a metronome or a drum loop while practicing is also a must, at it helps develop the student's groove. Internalizing music by developing the student's ear is also a very important part of my teaching style as Is applicable in any genre (hear it before you play it!) Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Bass Guitar Ukulele Recorder Double Bass Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

Customized Lesson Plans: Every student is unique, with distinct strengths, learning styles, and goals. I create customized lesson plans that cater to each student's individual needs and aspirations. By tailoring the curriculum, I ensure that the learning journey is engaging, relevant, and conducive to the student's progress. Foundational Focus: My teaching often starts with a strong emphasis on building solid fundamentals. A strong foundation in technique, rhythm, and basic music theory provides students with the tools they need to tackle more complex challenges as they advance. Read More

Instruments: Guitar Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I began teaching private lessons in electric guitar in 2016. I had been teaching to a wide range of students of different ages and musical backgrounds, from beginner to advanced. I have also taught in 2 musical schools (MUSA School of Music) and Los Olivos. Most of my students were mostly interested in Guitar Techniques and learning songs. In addition to that, I also teach Music Theory, Harmony, Arranging and Orchestration. It all sounds boring on paper but the core foundation of my teaching is that students must enjoy the journey of learning the instrument. Read More

...If you’re new to the piano, the idea of learning how to play chords might seem like a difficult task.

... Oasis’s mega-hit “Wonderwall” was written by Noel Gallagher in 1995. Though it didn’t win Best Rock Song at the Grammys that year, the song has proven to have incredible staying power and is still prevalent in popular culture today, over twenty years later. “Wonderwall” is a fantastic song for beginner guitar players to learn because its chord voicings and catchy strumming pattern are so satisfying.

The peer pressures associated with (or against, for that matter) are strong in the middle school and high school years. However, if a student decides to pick up an instrument and give it a try, they are going to have to find some sort of motivation, whether intrinsic or extrinsic, to keep going. With that found motivation comes a certain level of self-discipline to keep going. By learning an instrument or ... 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.
