Instruments:
My approach to teaching varies with the age level of each student. With younger students, imitation is often one of the best methods of learning and I prefer the Suzuki method for students up to age 8, especially with strings. For older children and adults, learning music notation and basic music theory for a full understanding of musical language are more important to get them to the level where they can learn any music that they want to play for fun. For students who wish to excel in their school band, a more practical approach with technique specific warm-ups and exercises seems to be the best in general.
Instruments:
I am a very motivated instructor who loves sharing my love and passion for music. I graduated from Glenwood High School in 2004. I then went on to Western Illinois University where I studied jazz on trumpet. I also went to Lincoln Land Community College with a Jazz performance major on trumpet and piano. I taught choir at Lanphier High School during the main choir teacher's medical leave. I played at Walt Disney World in 2005 as a fill-in on trumpet. I have traveled across the country and internationally as well. I have opened for and performed in major national acts across the country. My teaching career started in early 2001, including private instruction in piano, trumpet, and voice.
Instruments:
It feels like I embark on a musical adventure with each of my students! I love to see children's eyes lighting up when they understand a concept, or when they achieve mastery on a lesson! So, too, with adult students! As each student travels down his or her path of musical understanding, I am convinced that being able to share in their learning experience is a great gift.
Instruments:
Konnichiwa! It's Kopi here (you may choose to call me Matt :-) I look forward to potentially working with you, whether you haven't established yourself as a musician yet, or if you consider yourself quite cutting-edge. All styles are present in our lessons according to your wishes and desires, from Rock to Latin Jazz and all styles in between. I teach guitar, drum set, latin percussion, and bass guitar and have studied with graduates of the Music Institute (Hollywood), Berklee School of Music, the Players School of Music and more. Take lessons with me for fun/pleasure and/or to stay competitive in this ever changing world of Music.
Instruments:
My teaching experience dates back to college. I began teaching private lessons part time about 12 years ago and have been consistently teaching students in my home studio for the last 7 years. Routine and regular practice are a great combination to build muscle memory and an instinctual feel for music as well as a connection and passion to your instrument. Incorporating classical and oriental nuances are a great way to enhance rock music and solos, as well as make lessons & practice melodically fun and progressive. I can help you play the songs that you have in mind and that you might like to sing along, as well as enrich your musical vocabulary to build harmonious and melodic solos. Im always happy to pass on my teachings and introduce new students to music whenever I am given the chance.

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.
