Instruments:
Creating individual lessons plans for students based on interest and ability. I help the beginner start.
Instruments:
I play piano for dance classes and dance majors, both modern and ballet, at the University of Washington, Cornish, and other dance schools in the Puget Sound Area. I am a composer, songwriter, piano player, recording artist, and producer. I have released ten CDs since the year 2000. Two of the releases are with the Monroe Institute which makes Hemi-Sync music to balance brain wave patterns and assist with learning, focus, creativity, and ADD. I have released electronic music under my own name, and pop music under the name Bloom. I currently release music on Blessoteric Records.
Instruments:
The first half of each of my lessons will address the basics of music theory (i.e. rudiments, scales, etc.) and technique. The second half of each lesson is about having fun! We will dig deeper into the music my student is interested in, considering the songs from a musician's point of view. In dissecting the song we will learn about phrasing, feel, meter, melody, chord analysis, commonalities among styles and the history behind the music. Each lesson is individualized and I develop my curriculum based on the student's needs and interests.
Instruments:
Learning is fun but learning guitar is even more fun! Getting students excited to play and practice is why I am here. I encourage my students to play as much as possible and help them by setting clear goals with challenging and fun songs. I believe that teaching is a two way street and that communication between us is important. Tell me if you want to learn a specific song or style and I'll tailor lessons towards your goals.
Instruments:
For beginning students who are children, I typically start with Mel Bay's Modern Guitar Method introducing them to simple single string melodies that aid in teaching them how to read in open position. Once the student has progressed and has a good foundation with the basics, I begin to incorporate more intricate rhythms and chords and eventually move them on to learning riffs and short songs that will help them meet their own individual goals. For adults who are usually more straight forward with what they want to get out of the lessons, I usually jump straight into asking them about their favorite artists and influences to give me a good idea of where they want to be in the long run. I then begin working out a long term plan/lesson schedule that will get help them reach their goals as soon as possible.

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.
