Music Lessons in East Elmhurst, NY

Instruments: Guitar Drums Bass Guitar

I have been steadily teaching private lessons since I was at Berklee, nearly 10 years ago. I almost always have taught lessons at my own studio where students come to me because that always seems to be the most conducive environment for learning and getting inspired. I've taught complete beginners at the toddler age, and even retired people in their 70s. I enjoy teaching because each student has different needs, different interests, and most importantly digest and internalize new information differently. Read More

Instruments: Flute

My name is Megan. I was born on Long Island in New York and then lived most of my adult live in New York City. I have been playing the flute since I was 8 years old, which gives me over 25 years playing and performance experience. I have performed in many ensembles and have also performed solo. I play piccolo and sing as well. I am a life long learner and I try to instill this in all of my students. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Bass Guitar Synthesizer Orchestral Percussion Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I've been teaching for over 10 years now and I truly enjoy helping my students get more out of themselves. I started on classical piano at a young age, then played a whole lot of guitar focusing on the likes of Jimmy Page, Jimi Hendrix and more, before joining marching band and jazz band diving deep into drums. In College I started playing bass in bands in Manhattan, and I believe it's this transitions of hopping to many different instruments, starting on the piano, that makes it easy for me to relay the main musical concepts to my students that overlap through all of these instruments.

Instruments: Trumpet

We’ll do studies designed to address your weaknesses as well as draw from your strengths. We’ll also devote some time to playing duets for sake of joy in exuding music! We’ll work to facilitate good, easy vibrations of lips- you'll be surprised how simple an embouchure is: to form a relaxed embouchure (simply ;) say the word 'simple' and place the mouthpiece on the lips; I’ll teach you how playing in different ranges is about directing the air flow with your tongue.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Banjo Ukulele Mandolin Keyboard Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I'm a driven music teacher with an unending curiousity and love of the musical mind. I graduated Ithaca College with a B.A. in music performance specializing in classical guitar. Originally from Boston, I moved to NYC in the summer of 2011 to pursue teaching and playing music professionally. Since then, I've acquired a decent roster of students and have been gigging fairly regularly with a number of different projects. I started playing piano at an early age and from there I've tried to keep the learning process going. Read More

Instruments: Trombone Euphonium Tuba

I have been teaching music lessons since high school at the South Orange/Maplewood Adult School Summer Program back in 2009. I like to working with kids to encourage them to continue playing music and to build up a steady regimen of practice and self evaluation. I want to make learning music fun for my students and I want them to want to learn more and become better musicians. I also feel that music is an important subject to learn and that sophisticated lessons are necessary to a young musicians' growth. Read More
