Music Lessons Campbell County, KY

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Recorder, Music, Keyboard

During my 14 years of music teaching experience, I have worked with students as a public school music teacher, a studio private lesson teacher for piano, voice, oboe, flute, clarinet and saxophone. I've started studio programs for music theory, group piano, preschool music and musical theater. I've worked with students of all ages and experience levels who have a wide range of musical goals. Because I have a background in Kodaly and Orff instructional methods as well as advanced knowledge of musical theory, composition, music history and recording arts, I incorporate these elements within my instruction as students learn a piece of music.

I have been in the marching band in high school for the last 5 years (8th grade - 12th grade) and was in the Ohio Chirstian University choir where we traveled to sing for different churches for 4 years. Music has always been in my blood and love to teach those who love music as well.   It is my goal to teach my students the basics of music to encourage and grow their love of music; from picking up their first instrument to singing their first note, my goal is to teach them music while playing and having fun by using the Kodály method.

Instruments: Voice, Clarinet, Recorder, Music

I put emphasis in acquiring a desired set of skills must not tarnish one's love for music. Saying that, I expect my students to complete the assignments given and work hard to advance their understanding and abilities as musicians. I endeavor to seek and consider new ideas and strategies to broaden my perspectives and understandings that are beneficial to teaching a student. I also reflect upon my teaching methods from time to time with feedback and insight from others in a manner that leads to improved performance and development of skills to use a variety of methods and exercises in order to become a better instructor.

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

My method of teaching is very detailed instruction. There are many books that tend to start with the assumption that you know something about music or that music is easy to just "pick up." I like to start from the students' most basic skill level and fill in all the gaps as they progress. This means that starting out might be a bit slow, but the learning curve for future lessons is shortened and students eventually end up further ahead than if they skipped around. Read More
