Music Lessons in North Metro, GA

Instruments: Piano Synthesizer Music Keyboard

For all of my students, I find out what they are interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly. I typically start with the Piano Adventures series and my own compositions. Once my students understand the fundamentals, I begin to introduce solo repertoire appropriate for their first performance or competition. All of my students get a complete musical education by learning theory, performance, and music history. It's important that lessons are engaging and paced accordingly to maximize my student's enjoyment and keep their interest for our entire lesson. Read More

Instruments: Drums

My lesson plan includes: Hand and foot technique, learning to read music, good practice techniques and habits, learning to play with a click track/metronome, live performance techniques, rudiments, limb interdependence, Latin, funk, rock, blues, jazz, reggae, and country styles, and charting (mapping out song structures for faster memorization of songs) which also deepens your understanding of the interworking parts of songs and how to arrange them to achieve the most effective response for your listener.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Bass Guitar Ukulele Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I first started teaching music in 2014. I began as a guitar instructor, then made my way into teaching piano, drums, and bass as well. I believe that the best way to teach a student how to play an instrument is to first teach them how to play music. In my experience I have found that allowing students to try several different instruments and participate in group jams with other musicians teaches them to fall in love with making music. Read More

Music should be fun. Period!  Whatever the student's age or background, I will help them achieve their goals and have a great time in the process!   I have been teaching (private and institutions) and performing for over 20 years.  My extensive touring and professional performing background offers students a real-world perspective and continually keeps students motivated and inspired.  Recently I was Adjunct Professor of Percussion Studies at William Carey University where I managed private lessons for all percussion instruments and wrote and directed for the marching line.

Instruments: Piano Voice Violin Viola

When I was a young viola student I was taught using the Suzuki method. For beginner-intermediate violin/viola students I find this to be very effective, and would supplement this with a variety of technique exercises as well as something of personal interest to each student (folk style, pop, etc). After some time, when I feel a student has a solid grasp of fundamentals, I will begin to introduce appropriate solo repertoire. Read More

Instruments: Flute Piccolo

My teaching experience dates back to my high school education, as I began teaching privately and section based rehearsals at the age of 16. Encouraging students consistency in a regular and specific practice schedule is one of the key points I emphasize with all students. I like to maintain a balance of traditional classical music as well as modern music to keep a healthy relationship between all musicians and their craft. Read More
