Music Lessons in Harvey Park South, CO

Instruments: Cello

My teaching experience began around 2012 when I taught some of my teacher's students while she was out of town for the summer. Throughout college and graduate school, I maintained a small studio of a handful of students. After graduating in 2016, I began to grow my private studio as well as working with music schools throughout Denver, including Denver Public Schools, and Douglas County Schools. Besides private teaching, I also coach sectionals and small ensembles with DPS, DCS, and DASC (Denver Adult Strings Camp). Read More

Instruments: Guitar Drums Bass Guitar Acoustic Guitar

For Bass and Guitar students I have written a progressive theory "test" which does 2 things - it tells me what the student knows and it serves as a guide in future lessons. Some theory instruction goes along with whatever playing instruction the student is working on. For Drum students I stick to the aspects of theory that pertain to the drums - meter signatures, note values etc. If a drummer wants to learn more then I can work with him on it. Read More

As beginners, I recommend the first Hal Leonard Essential Elements Band books with EEi. The EEi feature allows students to access online features that coordinate with their private lessons and enhance their ability to learn. As students progress through the book, I add solo repertoire to the student's EEi account so they can both hear it played and record their own performance of each work of band music. Guitar students start with Essential Elements, piano students begin with Piano Adventures/Adult Piano Adventures, and both offer interactive online components which enhance the student's resources and ability to practice and learn between lessons.

Instruments: Guitar

I am a passionate musician whose love of guitar is infectious. I graduated Magna Cum Laude from the University of New Haven in 2010 with a Bachelor of Arts in Music and Sound Recording, and have taught privately in Nashville and now Denver. I play locally in several bands and projects, and encourage my students to come see me live to watch the lessons I teach put to use on stage. Read More

Instruments: Guitar

My teaching experience began when I was a senior in college, as I have taught guitar classes at a Denver high school and also taught privately out of my private studio. In my studio I like to work on the students goals and aspirations while also implementing an understanding of music theory and guitar anatomy. I encourage my students to practice regularly in an environment free of distractions so they can focus on the material at hand. Read More
