Instruments: Saxophone Flute
I tailor each of my lessons to the needs and desires of each individual. I am fond of using method books such as Hal Leonard's Essential Elements or Bruce Peterson's Standard of Excellence (or, with school children in a band program, whatever their method book may be), but I also like to bring separate handouts or sheets of exercises, drills, and songs that I have created over the years. I want each lesson to be engaging and fulfilling, and for the student to feel as though they can achieve the tasks set before them for each suceeding lesson. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Trombone Organ Music
I have been teaching since 2017. I started off with private lessons in St. Augustine, FL, then proceeded to join the Community School of Music at Stetson University as a Student Teacher in 2017. After graduating from Stetson in 2019, I stayed and taught as a Faculty Teacher at the Community School of Music, having more students. During my tenure, I taught students from four to 85 years old. When I went to get my graduate studies, I taught private lessons online and in person. Read More
Instruments: Trumpet
Within a month, you should be able to play all the notes of the C Major scale. I will be available to answer any questions you might have, and I will make sure that you start out with the correct mouth shape, or "embouchure". This is critical to establish and get right at first, so I will make sure you start playing correctly, with correct hand placements, and such. I can teach beginner level, as well as intermediate techniques, with how to play higher, practicing techniques, and a daily plan to work on .I will provide materials, technical exercises, lip buzzing, lip slurs, and more!

Instruments: Trombone Euphonium Music
Since High School (2005) I began to teach music in my own studio in Puerto Rico, working with kids and adults. My main goal is to create a collaborative work plan. I will never impose a single method in all the students, because we all have different aspirations and different priorities. I will help you as a student to accomplish any goals you can have and I will do whatever it takes to keep you motivated. Read More
Instruments: Violin Viola
My teaching experience begins in high school where I was appointed to be an orchestra assistant. There, I began offering before and after school private lessons with violinists and violists. Since then, I have graduated and am now attending UNF and assisting the Jacksonville Symphony Youth Orchestra. I currently have two students who participate in the youth orchestra and I adore it. We make music and have fun simultaneously, that is my job. Read More
Instruments: Piano
My name is Joshua. I am a 26 year old pianist who has been playing for 20 years. I am an experienced teacher, performer, and composer. I play around town in a Jazz duo, as well as in a 3 person band. I have been teaching for over 5 years and enjoy helping my students expand their mind and reach their goals for musical education. I like to find a piece from a composer or recent artist that the student enjoys so that we can balance the more tedious elements of the lesson with something fun. Read More
Instruments: Trumpet
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Growing up, I always had a fascination with space! I didn't have the grades nor the determination to pursue it, but I also had a love for music I couldn't suppress.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
My mother played piano as a child, but a lot of my initial inspiration came from my brother who played Tuba. He now plays guitar and sings in a group part-time in Long Beach, California.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
The moment I knew I wanted to perform was a concert at Appalachian State. This concert was goofy, funny, a little bit weird, but so much fun. It reinvigorated my love for music and really showed me how diverse music can really be.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
By far, the Pop/70's/80's music has been the most enjoyable. Performing with many tribute bands, playing the music of my idols, and the overall experience of the groups I've played with has been the best for me.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I really only play trumpet, but I've dabbled in many other brass instruments as well as piano. Most were from neccisity having to learn it for school, but I just wanted to understand how other instruments worked.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
My dream piece currently is La Virgen de la Macarena. It's showy, it's big, and it's perfect for me! Unfortunately I've never had a scenario in which I could perform it, but I hope to play it soon!
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I wanted to perform, which I still do and enjoy doing, but I learned I enjoyed teaching and investing time into students. I wanted a higher-education degree so I could teach at a university eventually, but I'm currently trying to improve my performance career so I can have the experiences to teach from.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I use the Bill Adam teaching method for most students who already have a grasp on the instrument. Using analogies and imagination to create music rather than just recording notes.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
We have what we call a "Routine". It varies per student, but it's essentially fundamentals to get your day started. It covers everything you'll need, no matter the circumstances. I think tend to play to online recordings, listen to other professional musicians, and take time to listen to new artists when I can.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Consistency, both in practice and performance. Developing a consistent practice routine is difficult until you get used to. There are also a lot of aspects to control while playing, and being able to do all that takes time.
