Music Lessons Johnson County, IN

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Music

My teaching style is adhered to the student themselves. I don't want anybody to feel like they need to copy someone else's singing style! I want to help students grow into their own unique voices, using a variety of diction techniques, as well as call and repeat types of exercises. IN terms of teaching piano, I have taught piano to beginners before! I start by teaching them the names of the keys, a bit of music theory, and then going from there! Read More

Instruments: Piano, Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet, Music, Keyboard

I always ask the student to find music that they like listening to, and I work this into the material they are learning. Even if the instrument they play is not a part of that music, listening to music critically will help them develop a concept for sound and an ear for musicality. I try my hardest to keep the lessons both fun and engaging - I'm always open to questions! Read More

I have made a lot of sheets/handouts that I have collected over the years and give these out to my students for free, this has worked well for most students. I try to adapt my teaching style to fit any student and help them achieve their goals and believe the best teachers are able to break down complex ideas or difficult concepts into simple steps that any student can follow.

My goal is for my students to love music and enjoy the process of learning and growing and reaching their personal goals as a musician.

I strive to have a positive teaching style by focusing on their strengths and helping them achieve their personal goals. Read More

For beginning or new students I like to begin with the Faber and Faber lesson books, although I am flexible to use whatever methods course works best for each individual student. Once a student has some beginner playing skills and theory basics, I like to encourage them to pick songs that they enjoy playing. I focus on a combination of classical, Disney, pop, and jazz. I encourage students to practice on a regular basis, write in their music (if necessary), ask for help (communication with what is and isn't working is key to success), and to work in a step by step system to learning music.
