Music Lessons in West End, GA

Instruments: Piano Voice Violin Cello Viola Mandolin Electric Violin Fiddle Music Keyboard

Teaching for 12 years and playing for 18 years has really inspired me to cater to every age, and the student’s personal goals and their particular culture as there are no limitations to my style. I have experience creating music programs for church ministries, learning centers, music academies and more. My programs offer growth within child development skills as an individual as well as a group setting, helping the student to be more confident at a young age and continue to grow as well for adults, give challenges to the student, fun games for memorization of music and to enjoy the lessons, and most importantly how to share their gift with family and friends while going through performing etiquette training.

Instruments: Guitar Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I start all beginners with the Mel Bay guitar method. That's how I started. From there we create what works for them. I'm also learning as I teach and creating each lesson newly. I like to keep the lessons fresh and exciting too. Finding fun ways to practice the modes and scales. After each lesson we want to measure our growth and our progress. I also love seeing my students play live too. Read More

Instruments: Drums

For beginning students of any age, I always start with learning the correct way to hold a drumstick and how to get the proper sound out of the drums. Once a good fulcrum and technique are established, I'll typically move on to a brief lesson on terminology. The drum set can be a complicated instrument to set up and use and I like to give my students a good foundation in that area. Read More

Instruments: Drums

My lesson plan includes: Hand and foot technique, learning to read music, good practice techniques and habits, learning to play with a click track/metronome, live performance techniques, rudiments, limb interdependence, Latin, funk, rock, blues, jazz, reggae, and country styles, and charting (mapping out song structures for faster memorization of songs) which also deepens your understanding of the interworking parts of songs and how to arrange them to achieve the most effective response for your listener.

Instruments: Piano Flute Ukulele Recorder Piccolo

Lessons will feature a warm-up period, followed by review of material from previous lessons, playing of new material, and wrap-up with sightreading and assignments for next lesson. Students are often encouraged to self-evaluate and set their own level of rigor. I believe in a collaborative approach that involves questioning students and having students ask questions of themselves. More than having students be able to perform technically, I want students to have an understanding of music and their instrument intimately, from their own awareness, rather than rote explanation or practice.

Instruments: Piano Voice Keyboard

I am a very goal orientated individual who pays attention to detail and has a passion for learning. Studying such courses as piano pedagogy, piano literature, and advanced music theory have given me the fundamentals to take my musical creativity and discipline to another level as a pianist. Working with the VSU, MGC, and CSU Chorale Singers have shown me how to work with other musicians and develop an extensive vocal repertoire. Read More
