My name is Ethan F. and I graduated From ACM @ UCO with an associates in Guitar performance. During my time at UCO I studied music theory, live performance, music business, and music history.

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

My favorite thing about teaching is getting to discover how others learn. The approach I use for one student will not always work for another. I think every person has a unique learning style and I love to develop new ways to teach concepts to my students. I work to encourage my students to be an active participant in setting and achieving goals in our work together, while maintaining a fun, positive atmosphere. Read More

I enjoy teaching students in both the classroom and private setting. Nothing gives me more pleasure than to see a student master new ideas and advance as a musician.

I have been playing and teaching for over 20 years. Read More

My passion for teaching is a big part of my career as a musician. I learn so much from my students. My favorite part of teaching is experiencing a student start out as a beginner and watch them develope into acomplished musicians. When I first see that spark in their eyes when they learn their first song is why I enjoy teaching so much. Read More

I emphasize the method of divide and conquer; the idea that if we are confronted with a complex problem, then we isolate each difficulty in that complex into a collection of simple problems. We master simple situations on the guitar individually until we are performing complex tasks that were once physically impossible. Ultimately, I think a blend of competence in technique, tone, and interpretation with a comprehensive outlook over specific works, studies, and the instrument itself will foster rapid development in a beginner, define the path of an intermediate, and supplement the advanced player.

I've taught in New York City, Los Angeles, and Oklahoma since 2009. In New York City, I teach theatre technique at a musical theatre school. In Los Angeles, I teach Alba Technique at an Actor's Workshop. In Oklahoma, working with children, I've taught ages 6-adult, directing musical and theatrical productions like Grease, Les Miserables, Much Ado About Nothing, and The War of the Worlds. I also teach acting - theatrical, classical, and on-camera - and approach singing from a "storytelling first" approach. Read More
