Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Recorder Music Keyboard Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I have studied music since childhood and continued with two professional degrees in music. My first degree is in Vocal Performance my second is in Music Education. I have been a part of a collegiate piano studio throughout my undergraduate degree. I have been playing classical guitar since childhood, but didn't study it in a collegiate setting. I began studio teaching in college, around 2014. I have continued teaching privately. I have also taught in public and private schools. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I have a great rapport with the students because we both generally want to be there. I have learned a lot about myself over the years about the various ways people learn. One cannot approach every student with the same program. Some are more visual and love to read music, some have a great ear and can play back something they only have heard once. I try to be aware of strengths, and work on the things that need more focus. Read More

Hello! My name is Jakob and I have been teaching children and adults for over 10 years to love playing music. My focus is on making music fun and easy for my students first and foremost, and then working on making music a growing passion or a refined practice, depending on my students needs. I provide organic, communicative and intelligent lessons and plans to push my students to set the best goals to accomplish their musical ideas and dreams. Read More

My approach to teaching is rooted in the belief that every student has the potential to learn and grow, and it is my job as a teacher to help them reach their full potential. I strive to create a safe and supportive learning environment where students feel comfortable taking risks and exploring new ideas. I believe in using a variety of teaching strategies, such as hands-on activities, group work, and individual instruction, to engage students in meaningful learning experiences. Read More

Depending on the instrument that the student studies and how old they are is how approach teaching them. For example, my voice studentsalways start out learning the same techniques and warm-ups, but where we go from there is based on the age of the voice and how a person wants to learn. With Guitar and Piano I may use a book as a supplement to my teaching, but not as the focal point of my teaching because every learns differently andare ina different place in their journey.

Instruments: Piano Keyboard
We all learn best through patters - not only in the material itself, but also how it is presented. Because I want students to be comfortable in a routine, I greatly value structure in my lessons, which incorporate theory, technique, and repertoire in a way that caters to the student’s interests as much as possible. A favorite line for me is Alfred’s Piano Library, as it provides a colorful, natural approach, even for complex musical concepts. Read More

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
my father was my teacher for the most part because we learned how to play guitar together but he already knew the basics like chords and notes.
he inspired me a lot and i can never see myself stop playing guitar.
i love it with all my heart and soul and with his help i have been able to do what i have done.
i do not think i would have stuck it out the 1st month if he didn't make it fun for me and i tank him for that.
i also took lessons from a fellow student in high school i looked up to because he was older and already in an established band.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
i chose the guitar after watching the Beatles "a hard day night" movie.
I fell in love with the looks of the bass and asked my dad for a guitar on my 12th birthday hoping i would get one like that but instead he busted out an old silvertone guitar his parents ordered out of the sears catalog for him as a kid but he never learn it until we learn together so that was wonderful!
i love playing many instruments but guitar is my main instrument by choice because i have a passion that comes out when i play it and i wouldn't trade that for the world
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
My most musical accomplishment of all time would be when my old band opened up for TESTAMENT who was all of our idols and they liked our music so we got to hangout with them afterwards.
I always wanted to make a sound of my own and when i was playing a gig somewhere another musician told me if there was an award for the most unique sound i would have it hands down and i was happy because since i was about 14 or 15 i always wanted to create my own genre of music.
i am also very happy to see my students progress!
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
My students all win awards by me but only won has went out and won actual awards for playing proficient in his band class!
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
the hardest thing to master on the guitar i think is theory and sweep picking.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
i use a variety of books from Wolf Marshall which is what i started out using to the world wide web
