Cesar P

Instruments: Trombone Euphonium Music

I'm a passionate instructor who loves to share my love of music and discover all the possibilities that a student can have with the instrument. I graduated from the Puerto Rico Music Conservatory with a bachelor in trombone performance. Working as a trombonist with the Navy band Southeast, I'm constantly performing in different ceremonies and teaching masterclasses around the Southeast area of the US, including Puerto Rico. As a soloist and freelance musician I'm very active in the Jacksonville scene, not only playing classical music, but also latin music and popular music; with Symphony Orchestras and other small and large ensembles.

Amanda W

Instruments: Piano

I am a passionate and devoted piano teacher with a real love of music and a strong desire to pass my knowledge onto others. I took seven years of piano lessons in grade school and graduated from Florida State College with an Associate of Arts in Music degree. I also played piano in the Charlton County High School Jazz Ensemble and at the United Methodist Church. I love working with children and other adults, and I am looking forward to being able to pass the gift of playing beautiful piano music onto them. Read More

Jose P

Instruments: Bass Guitar

For me, it is essential that every student advances at a pace that feels natural and comfortable for them while developing a deep and lasting passion for music. I nurture this growth by setting realistic, attainable goals and providing the guidance, structure, and support they need to reach each milestone with confidence. I believe that celebrating every achievementno matter how smallhelps students recognize their own progress and sparks the motivation to keep going. Read More

David S

Instruments: Piano Trombone Drums Synthesizer Euphonium Keyboard

My first teaching experiences were with my father during solo and ensemble. Having hired me as an accompanist for his students, I found myself rehearsing these students moreso than accompanying them. From that point I felt encouraged to teach and help others perfect their craft. My biggest influences would have to be my past teachers, one of which taught me younger and the other as I matured. I believe that while learning to read and write sheet music, developing technique and feel, and understanding music theory are all important, the most integral part of learning an instrument - as fundamental as it sounds - is to use your ears!

Elijah S

Instruments: Piano Voice Keyboard

I love seeing my students apply what they’ve learned in their lesson and become passionate about their music education. I am warm and friendly yet still firm and hands on in my approach to teaching so that students are able to enjoy lessons but still know that they are coming to lessons to learn something. I support the student with structuring lessons based off of the needs of the student as well as student/parent goals. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin Cello Viola Drums Bass Guitar Organ Harp Harmonica Lap Steel Guitar Banjo Ukulele Mandolin Electric Violin Fiddle Double Bass Conga Music Keyboard Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

first i ask what the student desires to learn . what type of music etc. once i have taught a few songs i ask the student to write a list of songs that they would like to learn. i teach how to find the key that the student sings in and how to transpose the song into that key. if the student does not wish to sing i teach them how the instrument of their choice works . again regardless of the instrument i usually am able to teach a student two songs in an hour lesson . one in four four timing and one in three four timing . there is nothing better than to see the light come on in a students face and see the confidence of ' i can do this !

LaChelle B

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

Teacher In Spotlight

Nicholas L

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.

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.

Ok

Are you sure that's your only availability? The more availability you easier it will be to arrange a teacher for you.
