Instruments: Voice Drums

My teaching experience dates back to my first year in Yamatai. As a more advanced percussionist, I took it upon myself to assist my fellow new recruits with learning the material outside of regular practice times with the Musical Director. With percussion, we found that taking a piece and breaking it into small sections that were easily repeatable gave the best results. I took these techniques over to the drum set when the time came, and found ways to make simple drum rhythms more interesting and engaging. Read More

I can't wait to build a list of testimonials with this organization @ Musika Lessons! Here's the thing, everyone is unique. It's really hard to say any one method is best for everybody. Once I figure out how old you are, what your interests really are, and what current degree of mastery you possess and where you want to take them to, I will be able to custom tailor a formidable method directly for them.

Instruments: Trumpet

My teaching experience is based on what I learned in the French trumpet school and I have been teaching for more than 10 years with different methods according to the student and level he is at. What leaves me and being able to help and encourage students to play and participate in musical groups or even some audition for some I believe a lot in the student's patience, motivation and discipline to obtain a good result of a work plan to be followed.

I will be taking students of all ages; young or mature. Unless the student is a very beginner, I essentially go about teaching in the same method with each individual. I WILL TEACH THE STUDENT WHATEVER THEY WANT TO LEARN. Thats right. I've found that learning music is more fun for the student when you get to play what you already know, are comfortable with, or want to learn. It works like this: if the student wants to learn a guitar solo, I will show them the fundamentals of what it takes to understand it, break it down, and execute it. Read More

I see music as my life, and I can't live without it! Throughout my career as a music student, I have taught music/piano lessons to kids who are disposed with ADHD as well as Down-Syndrome; I had good amount of experience working with kids, and was able to spark their inner musical self throughout being their teacher. I also have experience working with advanced, pre-conservatory students who wish to prepare for college music auditions or other musical endeavors. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Music Keyboard Acoustic Guitar

I used to teach piano at a music store in the Village of Webster for about a year. The majority of my students were kids, from age 8 to roughly 16. I ended up teaching a 5 year old at one point. I do like to encourage regular practice but only if the student is genuinely interested in learning and enjoys playing the instrument. Piano is not for everyone but I try to make it as enjoyable as possible! Read More
