Instruments: Voice
I am a passionate and patient vocal coach who loves working with students that are excited about becoming better singers and musicians. In 2018, I graduated from Belmont University with two Bachelor's Degrees in Commercial Music and Music Business. Currently, I am studying to earn a Master's Degree in Contemporary Performance from Berklee College of Music. I began performing onstage at five years old, and haven't stopped since. Over the years, I have had the opportunity to perform in many shows and venues across the U.S., largely in the Kansas City Metro area. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Trumpet
It is such a joy to see students progress in lessons, especially younger students. My former piano teacher of 10 years inspired me so much and was the most amazing and professional piano instructor in my area. She really lived by the reward system. Anytime, I would finish a goal or objective for the day, whether it be scales, or finishing a pieces, she would reward us with stickers or candy or anything to motivate us in love. Read More

My instructional method does not lean toward one method book for instruction. There is however a useful combination of selected literature, excerpts, solos, exercises and play alongs in addition to anything the student wants or has to work on. I teach technique and fundamentals that are applicable to all styles, not just one particular style. I'm teaching you to play music. Not a collection of beats and fills. Standards are met and individual goals are not ignored. Read More
Instruments: Piano Synthesizer Keyboard
In 1987 I began teaching Piano in California in the Bay Area. I traveled to the students homes to give lessons. I truly enjoyed getting to know the students and families and of course to see the students enjoy learning the piano.. It made teaching extremely enjoyable. After teaching piano from (1987-1997) in California, I moved to Indiana, where my parents lived. I got a job at an extremely busy music store in Mishawaka/ South Bend Indiana. Read More
Instruments: Drums
My name is Tom and I'm a young professional drummer living in Nashville. I'm originally from Iowa, went to the Berklee College of Music in Boston, and have lived in Nashville for a little over two years. I have been playing drums all my life, starting on pots and pans and eventually graduating to bigger and better things. I was brought up on a heavy dose of classic rock and The Beatles, and later got into jazz, concert percussion, and a myriad of other styles and genres. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I, like many other kids my age dreamed of being a rockstar but something more than the looks and swagger of the guitar drew me to it. It is a very personal instrument. I loved the idea that I could take it anywhere with me, unlike a giant piano! I could play it soft or I could wail away on it as loud as I wanted. It is an instrument that can accompany others or shine on its own and is quite limitless. But, back to the rockstar ideal, all of my favorite musicians were guitar players. From Stevie Ray Vaughn and Buddy Guy to Segovia and Villa Lobos.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I was very fortunate to be able to start taking lessons when I first picked up my instrument and continue taking those lessons up until I left for college. I had the same teacher from 14 years old to 19 which is when I went to college. He was and still is a phenomenal teacher! He encouraged me to learn many styles and incorporated music theory into my lessons as well which I find can be somewhat lost when learning the guitar. When I got to college I had the honor of studying with one of Canada's most renowned classical guitarists whom, while very hard on me, was very inspiring! Those two have made me the player and the teacher I am today!
When will I start to see results?
I get this question all the time. If you are a beginner just picking up your instrument for the first time and you are practicing efficiently you should see results fairly quickly. However, this question completely depends on how much time is being spend practicing. As a beginning guitar player I had to start out practicing in short segments in order for my fingers to get in shape and stop hurting. Once the calluses on my fingers got stronger I was able to practice for longer periods of time and began to notice results faster. The more you practice, as long as it is done efficiently, the more results you will see.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Always start with a warm up! I can't tell you how many times as a young kid I ignored that advice! Thankfully I smartened up and always warm up now. It is also very, very important to make sure you practice at least a short time each and every day versus trying to practice for one long session at the end of a long week. I also encourage to take whatever you may be working on, whether it be from your lesson or a separate piece of work, that you break it up into small sections. If what your working on is something like an ABA format, then focus on A before moving onto B rather than playing through the whole thing start to finish over, and over and over again, like so many of us like to do.
