Zachary A

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice

All students come with different strengths and weaknesses so I decided what needs to be done after hearing them. Basic technique is very important to consistently sing in any style. A singer must have stable, and consistent breathing as well as proper vocal balance. I have a substantial number of excursuses to begin training these aspects with a singer at any level. I structure the first part of a lesson as technical work and the second half as repertoire. Read More

Karleen G

Instruments: Piano

For beginning students I use graded methods such as Schultz Piano Course or Alfred Basic Piano to enable students to play a song from the very first lesson.  These graded methods introduce basic note reading, the layout of the piano keys, and proper posture and hand positioning, allowing students to progress gradually and systematically to more advanced music.  Interests and skill levels of older beginners and intermediate students are assessed individually, and a plan of study is tailored for them.

Jill W

Instruments: Piano Voice Keyboard

My students are my pride and joy and I customize every lesson to suit each student. By setting realistic goals, and motivating my students, they develop their love of singing and playing piano which in turn helps them blossom into musicians. By getting to know each student’s personality and musical preferences, I motivate them to progress and find joy in their practice and performance. I attend almost all of their school performances which enables me to improve their performance technique. Read More

I started my musical journey at the age of four years old and never stopped learning music and arts education since then. As a result of my commitment to my craft I had numerous opportunities to perform and record as an accomplished artist throughout the United States and abroad. As an international performer my credits include touring throughout the country of China as a lead singer for the state of the arts Thai City Theater. Read More

Bruce G

Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone Euphonium Tuba Music

I began teaching private lessons in 2019. Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I like to emphasize for student, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument. If a student is not having fun in their lessons, then I am not doing my job! My students are encouraged to enter competitions and recitals, as well as work on composing their own original material, so they can feel good about their accomplishments and stay motivated to learn.

Teacher In Spotlight

John C

Instruments: Piano Trumpet Saxophone Flute Clarinet Music Keyboard

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If a child sings or taps on things when they hear music, or even when they do not, it could be an indication that they have some innate talent. If they are just going along with the crowd because their friend is in the band that is usually an indication that they are really not that interested in the music itself. Those situations are not necessarily bad either because while playing with other children they may recognize some connection to the music. Students who want private instruction need to find an instructor that they can easily understand and identify with.

When will I start to see results?
If a student practices every day for a week they will immediately see the difference. Unfortunately most students do not believe this. I see this at all levels. I have always made my practice sessions enjoyable. I really enjoy playing so I try to get my students excited about it as well. I like to practice first thing in the morning. This is the great thing about keyboards as opposed to pianos. Keyboards allow for much more privacy because they can be can be turned down or sent through headphones only. Practicing is not a social event so the more focused a students is when they practice the better.

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I had a very good private instructor in high school who was an older gentleman who had made a career for himself as a professional musician and instructor. Working on my own now in the same field, I can see why he was always happy. He really took an interest in his students and had a very successful practice. As a younger musician, I was more focused on performing. At this point, I get as much satisfaction out of private teaching. In private practice, I have the chance to really focus on the development of my students.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Always go through things slowly and then in various tempos. It is important to play in a very relaxed state and to listen carefully to what you are playing. I use tuners extensively. Metronomes are good as well but they must be used properly. It makes no sense to set metronomes to meters that we cannot follow. Also, people often set metronomes improperly. Students may not feel meters in jazz when the metronome is set to 4/4 because jazz feels much more like 2/2. Music that is written in 6/8 may be played better if it was played with a feeling of two as well.

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.
