Instruments: Piano Guitar Fiddle Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

For beginners I like to start with just a few chords, something to get them going and playing and get excited. So many songs have two or three chords! By getting a few under the fingers we can start to learn songs and get dexterity and scales going a little later. Practice is something I can't stress enough. Get into the habit of practicing every day, even if its just for 20 minutes. Read More

Instruments: Voice

I love helping students of all ages expand their vocal ranges and learn proper breathing and singing techniques in order to be able to really BELT out a song! Belting is my specialty.I also enjoy teaching song writing, music theory, and basic keyboarding skills as requested. I love helping students prepare for upcoming performances, auditions and recitals, from proper microphone usage, to choosing songs, to making the songs their own! Read More

Especially on piano and keyboards, I have found that combining classical music and learning from books with learning music that students enjoy listening to on their own can revolutionize how students learn and enjoy their instrument. I also work with my students to learn their instrument and the necessary music theory concepts by writing their own melodies and small songs, so that students can feel creative while learning another method of processing the world around them.

Last year, one of my 2nd Grade Chicago Public School Band students performed the National Anthem for memory on the Alto Saxophone in front of 1000's of people at a race.

Taking an active role in supporting people of all ages accomplish their goals and enjoy life is why Iteachmusic. Read More

In teaching young students, I find most success in a repeat-after-me style. It is easiest for students to understand how to create something when supplied with a quality example to mimic. I teach my students the importance of musicality and expression alongside the technical aspects of playing their instrument. If a student is looking to study something particular, such as preparing a solo for a competition, I not only help them work on the piece, but I aim to supply them with successful practice methods as well.

Instruments: Piano

I started teaching in 2008 when I started college. I started couple of young students who were very beginners which was very fun! I love how creative young kids are. I learned a lot from my students. I also taught in music academy for a long time and it was totally different experience than private students teaching. I learned a lot about how to manage/teach many students in short amount of time.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Music Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I am a dedicated musician who has been playing the piano since age 3. In my late teens I taught myself to play the guitar and bass guitar, and I have spent my whole life learning the ins and outs of music through theory, composition, and performance. I hold no degrees or certifications other than a degree in environmental science, but I have put more hours into independent musical study than anyone my age who has chosen to pursue a degree in music.
