Music Lessons in Seaford, NY

Instruments: Piano Voice Keyboard

Hello, my name is Jihye and I am currently looking for new students that are interested in studying voice and/or piano, starting from January 2015. I teach anyone that has the desire to learn and the willingness to practice. I use an INDIVIDUALIZED APPROACH with all students and depending on students’ age and need, I write different lesson plans for each one of them. I am not just here to advertise myself. Read More

Instruments: Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I'm a professional guitar/singer teacher, teach musics both in English, Spanish, Italian, French and Portuguese if there's any interest, any kind of music. I've been playing/singing for 16 years, and done part of it as a job. I'm very passionate about music, and since guitar and voice always go together I think it's a great experience to do both at the same time. It doesn't take long to teach/learn if there is minimum training during the week, and and instrument is necessary for the student to practice. Read More

Instruments: Drums Bass Guitar

My teaching experience dates back to my high school days, as I began teaching private lessons part time 15 years ago, and have been consistently teaching students in my home studio for the last 10 years. Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I like to emphasize for younger students, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument. I've also found that a combination of jazz and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy the drums and motivate them to practice and continue to learn. Read More

Instruments: Double Bass

The goal I aim for is that the student feels the desire to complete individual practice tasks, fueled with positivity. I love seeing a student develop a personal drive for the music (or technique) they are learning. The way I approach this is getting the student to relate what they learn in bass lessons with everyday thinking, choices and activities they do outside the practice room. The idea is that the instrument can become an extension of themselves, if they choose that path. Read More

Instruments: Saxophone

My teaching method is roughly similar, whether you are young or old, a beginner or advanced. I believe in staying as close to music as possible; exercises have their place, but if we can use actual music to teach technique, sound, articulation, harmony, or any other topic, all the better. As a teacher, I consider a large part of my role simply curating the music you hear and learn, combining both your interests with your skill level and needs as an instrumentalist. Read More

Instruments: Trumpet Trombone

My particular brand of brass pedagogy has roots that trace back to the Chicago Symphony's legendary Bud Herseth. I believe in the pursuit of mastery of many of the basic techniques of brass playing - air movement, flexibility, and tone are the most important pieces of what we do as brass players, and I have collected an arsenal of exercises to build skill in these areas. I use a collection of techniques from a wide range of trumpet players from Ray Mase to Allen Vizzutti to Michael Sachs and will use these approaches to define musical outlook and technique.

Instruments: Flute Piccolo

Musicality and technique are two sides of the same coin. They co-exist and cannot be separated; I like to instill that in my students as early on as possible. I do so by providing a setting that values creativity and individuality and encourage my students to explore their musical ideas, find solutions to tricky passages and always keep a positive and intelligent mindset while practicing. The musician you are in the practice room is the musician you become on stage. Read More
