Justin F

Instruments: Lute

In my personal and professional opinion, all students deserve individualized lesson plans. Methodology is the vessel for teaching, and without a strong method, one can not teach. I do pride myself on creating lesson plans solely based on the players level, goals, abilities and choice of repertoire. Method books generally contain the "how," but not the "why." The "how" is simple, but to understand "why" is different all together. For instance, knowing "why" the thumb needs correct posture will tell you "how" to place it. Read More

Christian G

Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

For beginning guitar students i typically like to go over basic and essential elements of playing guitar such as posture, how to correctly hold a pick, how to tune a guitar, etc; all depending on where they stand. As i can see that the student is able to have a grasp on a few fundamentals i like to introduce them to various chord and scale exercises. Primarily i like to teach my students of the CAGED system which does a great job in helping my students better discover the fretboard. Read More

Lia M

Instruments: Piano Voice Organ Synthesizer Keyboard

I started teaching piano in other people's homes soon after I became a student at College of the Sequoias in Visalia, CA. Since I sang mostly at church, people asked me if their children could learn more about music from someone who has worked on it for a long time. By the time I went to Fresno State, I wasn't able to teach nearly as much, and probably needed teaching, myself! Read More

Raymond H

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums Ukulele Recorder Music Keyboard Acoustic Guitar

My teaching method include a combination of technique, artistry, interpretation, expression, musicality, and repertoire. This approach attempts to build synthesis and synergy between the different elements of musicmaking—both vocal and instrumental: the development and honing of sound technique provided a basis for informed and tasteful musicality as well as, by extension, effective and meaningful interpretation and performance of literature. At the same time, an awareness of and attention to expression, emotion, and interpretation informs the building and practice of technique, giving it context and artistic function. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Arlette C

Instruments: Cello Music

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I became a professionally after studying at the University of Michigan for my Master's degree. I completed my Master's in one year and I then was hired to play on a European tour for 8 months. During this time I realized that I can hold my own as a professional cellist. I did return to Michigan to study more with my Professor on a private level for an additional 3 years. After which, I chose to become a professional cellist and as such I was hired in Michigan by several orchestras for 5 years. So a couple of years after receiving my Master's I gradually I earned my position as a professional cellist in several orchestras in Michigan and thus began my journey as a professional.

Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Yes I am come from a musical family on my Mother's side. My Mom played Mandolin and Piano as a child. Once she got married to have children, she no longer continued to play, however, she was the force that allowed us to choose my instrument and continue working diligently through my childhood.

If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I started learning violin as a secondary instrument about 10 year ago. I was taught by my brother who is considered to be in the top 5 violinists in the U.S.A. I am very fortunate to have learned from the very best and now I can share my knowledge with my students. As the Violin is my secondary instrument, I have confined my teaching only to Beginning Violin which is approximately 1-2 years. After the student is proficient at the beginning level I then suggest to the student and parents to study with another teacher is more advanced than I am. Of course I have many names to offer the parents so that continue to get the best teacher possible.

What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I love classical of course, but I also like Broadway and popular music. I am classically trained and I am most comfortable playing classical and teaching classical. I created "Cello Mania" about 6 years ago which consists of 8-10 professional cellist and we perform works from the classical style to rock 'n' roll. By hiring a composer we have been able to play music from Ricky Martin, U-2, Lady Gaga, Pirates of the Caribbean, Elivs Presley and Gloria Estefan just to name a few great singers.

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Very hard question simply because I've never done anything else in my life. I did have to supplement my income by working as a medical secretary. At this point I hope to stay playing and teaching for many years to come.

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.
