Music Lessons in Taylorstown, PA

Instruments: Violin Viola

I have been teaching violin and viola for the last 10 years. My students have ranged from 4 thru 25 years of age. I love teaching the violin and viola to students who desire to learn the instruments regardless of their goals for the instrument. I strive to keep my students motivated, and if the student is bored with what is being taught I find something to inspire them. I, however, do not teach students that are unwilling practice.

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

Theres nothing more fulfilling for me as an instructor than witnessing my students ignite their passion for music. In line with the teachings of great musicians like Victor Wooten, particularly his work on Music is the Language, I firmly believe that every student is a unique musical soul, and its crucial that they progress at their own pace. To nurture this individuality, I employ a student-centric approach, setting realistic and personalized goals at every lesson. Read More

Instruments: Piano Music

My main objective is to find the optimal way to help each student master the material or skills taught. I deeply value understanding student's needs in order to guide them through their challenges accordingly. In addition, I believe that learning music should be engaging and meaningful. For example, students are encouraged to set their own poetry, short stories, or paintings to music. This provides them the opportunity to apply what they have learned and internalize new skills through practice. Read More

Instruments: Piano Organ

I listen the music which the student has been practicing. Then, I guide him/her to make corrections and enhancements.  I use positive reinforcement to strengthen those parts of the performance, and suggest and demonstrate correct concepts.  Then, after hearing the piece again, decide whether review the assignment or move on.  Playing duets with the student is often part of the process. Doing that helps them feel the true meaning of the music; and also helps make up for a pianist's ordinarily lack of group playing because he usually practices alone. Read More
