Music Lessons Campbell County, KY

Instruments: Piano, Music, Keyboard

For beginning students, I typically start them with learning the notes, staff, beats, etc. Once the student has mastered those abilities, I begin to introduce playing "by ear" as I like to call it. This process involves the student choosing the song and learning how to play it solely by listening to it and figuring out the chords. If the student is looking to fulfill a career or perform at a competition as a piano player, then I also take the time to focus on the best practices to get them up to par with what they need for the career/competition.

Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Drums, Mallet Percussion, Orchestral Percussion, Conga, Music

I began teaching percussion immediately after high school. While attending EKU, I helped my former high school by teaching the percussion section during the marching band season. I taught the section every year for about 12 years before being hired as a full-time teacher and becoming the assistant director of the band. I still mainly focus on the percussion section every year, but my responsibilities have spread to assisting with other sections of the band as well. Read More

Instruments: Voice, Music

For beginning students who are children, I typically start with breathing and vocal exercise. Once the student has progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals and are introduced to the Belcanto technique, I will begin to introduce solo repertoire appropriate, for their first recital performance or audition. For adults, I try to find out what the student is interested in, and guild my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging, fun, productive and fruitful, no matter their ability level.

Instruments: Flute, Piccolo, Music

While I do not have much experience teaching music, I've been playing for over a decade, participating in both concert and marching ensembles, as well as Murray State's flute ensemble for several years. I also have plenty of experience working with children, both in my time working in daycares, primarily with ages 6 months through age 5, as well as volunteering helping with the children's choir at the church I grew up in and have attended my entire life.

Instruments: Guitar, Music, Electric Guitar, Classical Guitar, Acoustic Guitar

I started teaching guitar when I was in High School to my friends that I met through singing beside and learning music theory in the choir room. Shortly after I graduated from High School and went to college at Western Kentucky University, I was teaching even more people from ages 5 to 90, at WKU and Musician's Pro, a local music store. My goal as your music teacher is to give you courage to express yourself, have a lot of fun, and play music to the best of your ability! Read More
