Music Lessons in Somerset, TX

Instruments: Flute Recorder Piccolo

I approach teaching with a fun atmosphere, laid back to be comfortable to ask questions, develop passion for music to allow progress and praise to build confidence so students want to try more difficult music to help build that motivation and eagerness to learn. I always like to use my first lesson as a get to know. Being able to ask students questions on why they choose to play flute, what inspires them to play, etc will allow me to mold my teaching to their wants and needs. Read More

Hi, my name is Mike. I am from Boerne, TX and got a degree in Music Marketing from the University of Texas at San Antonio. I played the trumpet in middle school, high school, and it was my primary instrument in college.

I am apart of several classic rock bands where I perform locally and in surrounding cities. Read More

Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar Music Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I started teaching back in 1995 due to repeated requests from customers at the music store where I was working retail at the time. Turned out to be the best decision I ever made as I left the retail world within 1 more year and never went back. When I was growing up I did not have a teacher which is why I love being able to do this so much. "Be Who You Needed When You Were Younger" has been an incredibly rewarding path for both me and my students. Read More

Instruments: Violin Cello Viola Double Bass

I am a firm believer that every person should have some sort of musical experience to enrich their lives. Teaching music has been a deep commitment and passion for the last 20 years. My specialty area is bowed instruments. How did I begin my experience with the cello and the other bowed instruments? I began in an elementary strings class in a public school in Tennessee. Through that experience as well as private lessons and youth orchestras, I developed a profound connection to music. Read More

Instruments: Voice

I believe that half of the joy of making music is sharing it with others. In 2011, I graduated from Howard Payne University with a degree in music education, where I often performed lead roles in production spanning from "Bye, Bye Birdie," to "Gianni Schicchi." I am currently pursuing an advanced degree in Vocal Performance and Pedagogy from UTSA, and am projected to graduate in Spring 2015. I have had the opportunity to perform both around the State of Texas, as well as in Italy. Read More
