Instruments: Flute Piccolo Music
The first priority for me is to dully understand what each student and parent wants from the desire for private instruction. My teaching methods are tailored to each student's indidvidual needs and expectaions for the duration of lessons. I don't have a specific method book set, for I use multiple sources thoughout the teaching experience. Most of my students are middle and high school students. In that case, I work with them on whatever they may be playing in their respective school band programs. Read More
Instruments: Flute Piccolo
I like to start beginning students with the Rubank Elementary series of books. Along with the Rubank books, I like to also focus on music being covered in school, if applicable. For more advanced students, I focus on the mastery of scales, technique, intonation, and sound production. I like to use the Andersen etude series, but this will vary from student to student. With adult students, the material covered is completely individual. Read More
Instruments: Bass Guitar
Because everyone is at a different point in their abilites, each student's lessons will be customized to fit where they are, whether it be at beginner, intermediate, or advanced level. If a student specifically wants to learn a specific style or styles, then the lessons would focus on that. If they desire to be the most well-rounded in all styles, then the approach would fit that. It depends on which direction the student needs or wants to go. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I am good at combine technique and music performance together to teach students. Because I believe that any technique are serving for music, when I teach student, I will tell and teach them why we use this technique to play this music section. For beginner, I will teach them how to build up strong finger and how to complete relax which is very important. These two factors are dependant on each other. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Keyboard
I have been teaching young people and adults how to play musical instruments for over 20 years. Currently I conduct after school music programs at the University of Memphis Campus School, CTK Lutheran School in Memphis, and Incarnation Catholic School in Collierville. I also have performed with many local bands in a variety of music styles. I enjoy playing out and I try to instill this natural attraction to music making in all of my students. Read More
Instruments: Trumpet Saxophone Flute Clarinet
I teach according to each students learning ability and I also love to challenge my students to help with their daily practice time. Depending on the level of advancement , we will determine the materials that is needed for each lesson. If its a beginner they will start on the basic learnings and fundamentals of music to help them better understand the lesson. Once the students progress to a certain level in their music I will then introduce more challenging exercises to prepare them for the next level. Read More
Instruments: Piano Keyboard
Greetings future student! I have composed, performed, taught, and produced music for 25 years now. One way I continue to experience the joy of music is by passing along what I have learned. I am currently the Pianist for Saint Michael Catholic Church and have extensive experience in many facets of music and the challenges we face - both in performance and development of musicianship as well as understanding. I don't live vicariously through my students. Read More
Instruments: Bass Guitar
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
It helps with structure when you want to learn the bass guitar. Practice time is very important. Practicing effectively is even more important. Effectively practicing helps with finger coordinationp. You will be able to sit down and say, “I want to learn about blues for a month.” After you get down finger warm-ups then you get into a few transcriptions you want to know about. You write them out. Then spend a few hours on just listening to the blues songs. This is practicing effectively. Get down warm-ups every practice session then get into a genre and master it!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Once your child talks about the instrument all the time, it is time for them to get music lessons. The lessons will be important and your children with thank you. I say this because even though YouTube is amazing and you can learn from there, a teacher in real-time is better. The student can develop a bond with the student and share personal ideas on learning the instrument. A child should never be given am instrument just to leave it to themselves to learn it. They will never learn it the way that it is intended to be learned. The child would thank and appreciate the parent for getting them an instructor.
When will I start to see results?
The time period where the student and parent will begin to see result will vary. It will completely depend on if the child retains information from the lessons. If the child can successfully retain the information from each lesson, learn the material given in his/her personal time than no later than a month will be the time frame wher results will be seen. If the student does not understand the information and I have to go over it more and more than 6 weeks will be the time framer where results will be seen.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Growing up, I always had an eye for the bass. I really liked to hear how the instrument sounded on the radio. It always fascinated me by the look and the sound. It was so unique to me that a string instrument only had four strings and the neck was so long. From then on I began to think about it and what I would do if I had one in my possession. I enjoyed how it can have various strings and tunings and layouts. I knew that I was sold. So from that point on I began to picking the instrument out of a whole band. I was so happy to begin playing and learning that I never looked back.
