Instruments:
I encourage my students to make progress at their own pace, but I always set goals so that progress can be tracked each week. Lessons cover technique, music theory, sightreading, aural skills, and improvisation--all of which build up the student's musicianship. I try to find something that inspires each student so that they become engaged in lessons and enjoy putting in the time necessary to become a better musician. I am a patient instructor with experience teaching students of all ages and I maintain good rapport with my students.
Instruments:
I'm a guitar and piano player who has been teaching students of all ages since 2011. I started playing guitar 17 years ago and it has been my constant companion since then. I got my music degree from Carleton College, and my senior project was on jazz guitar arranging. I have played in bands, both on guitar and bass, for many years and I love performing live. I have taught most styles of guitar, and also beginner piano and bass guitar.
Instruments:
My teaching experience dates back to high school when I taught my mom's friends' kids beginner lessons in piano on the weekends to earn some extra cash. I started playing in bands in college which garnered the attention of Girls Rock Camp, which has made me more connections to teach private lessons. Although I did not major in music in college, I have 15 years of studio training from arguably the best piano studio in Wisconsin where I studied music theory, ear training, classical and jazz piano, and more. I have worked as music director on over ten musical theater productions including three musicals I've written and I've performed to sold out crowds on the High Noon Saloon stage, and several other venues in town. I work at Clutch Sound (formerly known as Smart Studios) as an audio recording engineer and video editor, so I also know the technical side to music production.
Instruments:
I have taught drums for over twenty years. Though I had to take a 2 year hiatus from 2014-2016, I have maintained a performance and practice routine for myself and kept in touch with those students I had at the time who continue to call me today and ask questions. Now that I am back to teach some of them are even coming back. I have taught out of stores as well as my home studio. I teach anything from Classical to rock to jazz to Metal and everything in between. My specialites are as follows but are not limited to: Odd – Time Signatures Snare coordination Music Theory and History Rudiments based instruction Writing and reading music Playing for the song Preparing youth for high school, college and beyond Teaching Experience: Teaching Drums privately in Madison and its suburbs, WI Feb 2008- Present Taught Drums at JB Music in Stoughton, WI Feb 2007- 2008 Taught Drums in Chicago, IL privately 2005-2007 Taught Drums and Bass at Berea Music in Berea, OH 2002-2004 Taught Drums Privately in Cleveland, Ohio area 1996-2005
