Music Lessons in Miller Place, NY

Instruments: Voice

But in the mean time, work on techniques, musically, and  breathing techniques, finding a method that will work to correct the weaknesses they have. Each student learns differently, so its about finding the method that works for that particular student. We will work on range, pitch (if thats an issue), vocal warm ups, diction (English or any other language they are up to learning...again it depends on their skill level), and more.  Read More

Instruments: Piano

I love music and I love teaching! I took piano lessons as a child, was in a band as a teenager, and began giving piano lessons in my 20's. I teach all styles of music, sight-reading, music theory and ear training. For those students more more interested in learning pop or jazz, I give special attention to chords and "lead sheet" playing. I have worked with many singers to teach them how to accompany themselves on piano. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice

I began my teaching career as a teenager with beginning piano students in my home. I continued to teach part-time throughout university, adding voice to the mix, and have taught full time off and on since then between singing engagements, mothering my children and working. I have taught at the Elementary/Middle School level in a private after-school program in NYC, at Westminster Choir College in NJ for a year and began teaching on Long Island in recent years since my move to Centereach, NY.

Instruments: Trumpet Euphonium

I like to take a friendly, low pressure approach to private lessons and strive to make my students as comfortable as possible. I strike a good balance between having fun and accomplishing our goals for the day. I also like to play as much as possible in my lessons so students aren't always on the spot. Read More

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Music Keyboard

I continue to practice and study every day. Since graduating with a degree in Jazz, I continue my studies of piano, saxophone, and flute, and most recently, North Indian vocal Music. My label and music has been presented at the Lincoln Center Film Society, The BJ Rubin Show (NY 1), and John Schaefer's New York public radio show, New Sounds. My studio is a very comfortable and professional place for recording, mixing, and teaching. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I am an accomplished self-taught musician. I am classically trained in Piano, which made teaching myself guitar, bass, organ, and keyboards (multiples at once) that much easier, and then I took lesson in each to sharpen the skills. I am also experienced in arranging, recording, and mastering thus I bring a unique expertise in blend and improvisation. I am seeking a teaching position where my focus is assisting others in learning and/or honing a craft as opposed to my focus being on locating clientele or promoting myself. Read More

Instruments: Piano Trumpet Saxophone Flute Clarinet Drums

 My teaching includes all aspects of music; Musical theory, sight singing, as well as Music History. My teaching style allows the child to have fun while they learn their instrument, but I emphasize a strong practice regiment. Your child will understand that while learning music and an instrument can be fun, there will be some work involved if they want to become great. I usually use either the Alfred or Rubank method books to supplement a curriculum that I tailor make for each individual student. Read More
