Abbie F

Instruments: Piano Acoustic Guitar

Each student learns at their own pace, therefore goals are set individually for each student.  Students need to have a passion for learning music, therefore I try to create a fun, patient environment in order for children to learn.  I believe in setting goals and acknowledging when an accomplishment is made to reinforce the desire to learn. Regular practice is encouraged and incentivized if needed because practice is a necessary habit in learning and furthering development.

Brooke B

Instruments: Piano

For children beginners, I typically start with Hal Leonard's "More Popular" books. Once the student has begun to learn how to sightread and grasp the fundamental elements, I begin to introduce a repertoire suitable for the student's performance. For students who are a little bit older and have a little bit more experience I ask them what they would like to learn. I am a firm believer in asking the student what their goals are and what they are interested in. Read More

Robyn R

Instruments: Piano Cello Music

For all my cello students, I start with 170 Foundation Studies and a modified Suzuki Method (Cello). Once my students reach Suzuki book 4, then they can start playing Bach Suites, and other intermediate repertoir. The Bach Suites, however, are what most of my cello students are interested in learning. For piano students, I use the Bastien piano series by Neil Kjos. I want my students to be interested and engaged, and coach them through basics while also trying to find pieces or genres they want to play. Read More

Scott Q

Instruments: Piano Trombone

My teaching experience comes from a variety of different sources for the last 8 years. During college, I taught at my alumni as a summer marching band assistant. During that time, I also taught trombone and piano lessons to students around the Waco area. I have also taught as a elementary music teacher for two years, and I bring those skills with me to my lessons studio. For students of all ages, I give out as much encouragement and guidance as I can, but ultimately, I want students to become their own critiques. Read More

Jillian W

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Bass Guitar Ukulele Keyboard Acoustic Guitar

For piano ages 7-12: I typically start with Primer Piano Adventures or Level 1. I also use Keith Snell Scale Skill Levels for skill and chord practices which is helpful for all kinds of music! For guitar and ukulele: Hal Leonard guitar and ukulele method. These books also teach reading the notes in sheet music and understanding how to play them on the guitar or ukulele, as well as including a tab. Read More

Andrew S

Instruments: Piano Organ

My experience with teaching began during my undergraduate studies. I have worked with students in the classroom teaching elementary music as well as at the middle school and high school level teaching choir. In addition, I have taught my closest friends in piano and organ. While I was the staff accompanist at a high school, I taught the treble choir and gave piano and voice lessons during off-periods. I have thoroughly enjoyed teaching, especially when I see that students are inspired by music and are willing to take on the task of mastering their craft. Read More

Julie D

Instruments: Piano

I am a professional licensed educator, as well as, a mother of two grown children, both of which influence my teaching method. My style is individualized to the student's personality - what works for one may not work for another. One student may be very driven to learn theory and do written homework, while another may find written homework to be agonizing but love learning new pieces of music - I will work with both styles, with the same result - each student learns to play the instrument and learns the required theory to be able to play the piano, while hopefully enjoying it along the way!

Teacher In Spotlight

Barbara D

Instruments: Piano Voice Organ Music Keyboard

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I was 7 when my Dad put a keyboard before me and I have been hopelessly hooked every since.

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Not a teacher, but my Father. I was 7 years old when he placed a keyboard in my hand and it never departed thereafter. When I was 9, I took my babysitting money and paid for my own private lessons and walked 4 blocks each week to get to them. When I was 13, I started working at a nursing home afterschool and on weekends, and paid $1300.00 for my very own Kwai Organ. I loved singing and playing. However, my father always said it was not a good way of making a living or I believe it would have been my first vocation earlier in life. In that sense, the one who inspired me also discouraged me.

When will I start to see results?
Everyone and every class is different. However most students are playing recognizable songs and selections within a few months.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
The truth is, that is a hard thing to determine but there are tell tale signs that you can look for. Those include the child playing with their fingers and not their entire hand. Playing one key at a time instead of banging on the keys. Singing and pretending to play or actually picking up the right note for some songs. Sometimes just clapping in rhythm, singing with good pitch or banging something with good rhythm can be signs. Being able to sit still for small periods of time and good focus help. However, the best way of knowing is letting your child do a trial lesson with an instructor that is experienced in teaching that age group. They will be able to let you know if your child is ready or if 6 months to a year will make all the difference in the world!

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am most proud of seeing my students compete in school and local talent shows and complete national online testing and contests successfully. I even have some that have competed on America's got talent. If I were to say my greatest personal accomplishment is that I taught my own children (now grown) to play and I have 6 of my 8 grandchildren that also play. My grandkids range in age from 5 to 14. I never coerced them to play. Each of them came and asked to be taught one by one. Many of my colleagues cannot teach their own children. My grandchildren often play for our Church services and are paid well when they do.

How To Sing And Play Guitar At the Same Time

...  Strum and sing chord names at the same time:   Start by strumming and singing the note name of each chord in unison. Simple quarter notes here are fine. The notes you sing should be the roots of the chords you’re playing.   Once you get more confident, keep strumming the chords with simple quarter notes but sing the note names with different rhythms. This can be a little like patting your head and rubbing your belly at the same time, but it’s meant to develop independence between your vocals and guitar playing.   As you improve, add in more chords,...

Focus on mastering transitioning between chords in this style before you move on to learning entire songs. For more helpful articles about the world of music, check ... Read More

Mixing Basics: Intro to Audio Mixing

...There are two instances when you need to mix audio: when an album is being recorded and when a band is performing live. In either situation the intention is the same; ensure that every piece of the performance can be heard. Some audio mixing basics make it possible to achieve this balance and the fundamentals are often enough to achieve an adequate sound. When beginning the art of audio mixing, it’s often helpful to think of the process visually; in a band every instrument has its place, and they all must be seen. If the drums are right in front, the bass ... Read More

Principals of Basic Drum Beats for Rock, Part 1

...first we have to nail down just what exactly is meant by ‘beat’ itself. Fundamentally, beat refers to the underlying pulse of the music, and is often described as corresponding to the rate at which one might naturally tap her foot with the music. In classical music, it can be seen in the changes in direction of the conductor’s baton, which are usually (though not always, to the chagrin of many a classical musician) fairly distinct. It is considered the basic unit of time in a given piece of music, which is then divided into smaller units, and from which larger structural units emerge. When we ... Read More

Jazz Exercises for the Saxophone: Advanced Studies in 12 Keys

...The ii-V-I progression is the most common progression in jazz. Now, you can start applying the ii-V-I lines that we learned above to tunes you know and tunes in the Real Book. For example, we can apply the three ii-V-I lines to the three places the ii-V-I progression happens in “Groovin’ High”. Applying the second ii-V-I example to “Groovin’ High” would be pointless, though, since that’s where we extracted the ii-V-I line from. Try taking the ii-V-I lines and applying them to “Cherokee”. “Cherokee” has the ii-V-I progression in seven different keys. The example below illustrates taking the ii-V-I that ... Read More

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.
