Established New York musician. Berklee College of Music Graduate. I always loved music and listening to it with my family and friends. When I had the chance to learn and instrument and be able to actually make music, that opened my eyes to a whole new world and it changed me to become a better person and do better in other subjects. Now I have the chance to share my experience and knowledge with students and there is nothing that I enjoy more that that. Read More

Instruments: Cello

I am a warm and intuitive teacher who loves to guide students toward a life long love of music! I keep lessons fun and light, acknowledging accomplishments and pushing students toward their next milestone. I tailor my teaching style to each students learning style and personal goals, but also provide a solid structure for building practice habits and good technique in younger or beginning students. I love playing along with students in duets, as making music together is one of the great joys of learning an instrument. Read More

Instruments: Drums Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Conga Latin Percussion Djembe

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants/needs and strive to make the experience as enjoyable and fulfilling as possible for them.

Instruments: Piano Violin Music

My teaching style is very friendly and I have a great passion for teaching! I also like to guide my students on how to refine their playings by themselves and encourage them to form their own thoughts on the music, and I believe the ability to resolve problems without outside help is crucial not only in the music realm but also in real life, so it is a good place to train that skill too!

Instruments: Piano Guitar Trumpet

A Texas native, Clynt grew up exposed to a variety of music. The southern influence of blues, gospel, country, and jazz were a huge part of his musical upbringing. While his formal training was largely in classical music for many years, he also remembers learning his first tunes note-by-not from his father (a jazz and country musician) in their living room in Texas when he was not out of elementary school.  Having experienced both formal and informal training methods all of his life, he is adept at providing either - or any ratio - of the two to a student in need.

Instruments: Guitar

My style is largely theory and hard technique based. I know that every student is very different and will have a different optimal technique. Whether that means I need to teach a rock student fingerstyle or hybrid picking to master a song with fast arpeggiations, or maybe figure out that someone with small hands must move their left thumb down a little bit to hit a cross-neck chord in a classical song, for instance, I personally believe that everyone is going to play a little differently to achieve the same results.

Instruments: Saxophone Flute Clarinet

I love seeing my students get better, and different things make different students improve. I like to find what that is for each individual student. For example, some are more interested in reading the notes, and others are better at learning by ear. I try to work with each student's strong points and use the strengths to work on improving the weaknesses. Read More
