Music Lessons in Elizabeth Lake, CA

Instruments: Violin

I have taught violin since the year 2011. My students have primarily been between the ages of 10-16 with the exception of one student being in her 40's. I have taught beginners to advanced beginners, and most of my students have to this point hired me to train for a particular upcoming audition. During the years of teaching, I have found that I truly enjoy watching students obtain the gift of being able to play music. Read More

Instruments: Piano

No matter what skill level the student is at, I want to always make sure that the student is always engaged and interested in the repertoire! I find that more important than anything else, as I want to build that passion within each and every student to be able to not only play piano, but to love and cherish its history. I want to develop a personal connection with each student I teach, and cooperate with whatever needs they may have. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice Acoustic Guitar

I've been singing my entire life (I have home videos singing Andrea Boccelli in the bathtub) and singing has been in my family for many generations. I began playing guitar and writing songs since high school, so I have four years of experience playing and singing together, writing songs, and performing them. In high school I took a few lessons in a combo class for guitar and voice, but mostly learned from YouTube! Read More

As you'll see, I'm fun, happy, and have a great sense of humor. I'm very passionate about bringing out your best, and we'll work hard to find that path to bring out your best qualities as a musician. We never go any faster than the student can handle, so that there's never any rush for a goal, only that there be progress we are all satisfied with. I want to know your favorite singers and songwriters. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice

What you put into anything is what you get out of it; its the same with vocals. I customize lessons to help you get to your voice and/or stay with your voice. However, you have to know the basics and if those aren't there, that will be the initial focus. Read More

Instruments: Drums

Nice, friendly and patient. The most important part of the lesson is the state of mind. For anyone, going to a lesson should be an event to look forward to, nothing else. So, I try to make the drummer in everyone "go to work", even though I take the easy approach. And I love it when the students feel like they get it. Read More

Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar Music

It's a milestone that can be both thrilling and nerve-wracking, and my goal is to ensure they're well-prepared and confident when the time comes. When it comes to adult students, my teaching philosophy takes a somewhat different route. I place a significant emphasis on getting to know what makes each adult student tick, musically speaking. I find out what styles, genres, or artists ignite their passion for music. Whether they're into classical, rock, jazz, or anything in between, I aim to tailor my instruction to align with their unique interests and preferences. Read More
