Music Lessons in Yukon, OK

Instruments: Guitar

The lesson material is completely dependent on the student. I believe the most important things for someone to learn are keys, chords, scales,intervals and improvisation. For students are just beginning the first step is to learn the notes on the neck of the guitar. The next step is to begin learning intervals that way the student is able to build chords on the neck. From there is goes on to chords then scales and then keys. Read More

My teaching style is to motivate students through fun while building a passion for music. I set expectations for each student and make sure they are a better musician today than they were yesterday. I enjoy finding new and exciting methods to teach any student. Nothing is more rewarding to me than helping a student get that important audition, scholarship, or honor. I always determine what inspires my students and coach them to success every time. Read More

Instruments: Violin

Nice to meet you! My name is Phil, and I'm a violin instructor located right outside Oklahoma City. I've been playing the violin for sixteen years! In 2017, I graduated Magna Cum Laude from the Conservatory of Music at Baldwin Wallace University with a Bachelor of Arts in Violin Performance. My musical journey has helped me achieve expertise in a wide number of styles and mediums, not limited to orchestral playing, chamber music, opera, musical theater, baroque style, contemporary style, and all nuances of classical and romantic playing.

Instruments: Saxophone

Whether you are beginning in music or experienced, I will design a program for you. We will start with a short time where we get to know each other. Then we can choose a music book for saxophone that we can work out of. For example for beginners we can start with the Hal Leonard Essential Elements book. (But don't let using a book frighten you, because we will have as much fun as we can learning music.) One important thing I want to mention is that I personally, although I have been singing and playing music for nearly 40 years, practicing has been very difficult for me. Read More
