Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
My first experience giving lessons actually began eight years ago with my first instrument, the guitar. I have been playing guitar since I was 7 years old, though I still consider Voice my main instrument. This was my first experience teaching and everything I needed to unleash the excitement and passion my instructors had shown me throughout my life. Since then I have been teaching beginner level piano and beginner to intermediate voice lessons in both my home state of Michigan, and the greater Boston area. Read More
Instruments: Piano Trumpet Organ French Horn Tuba Music Keyboard
For beginning students who are children, I typically start with Bastien Piano Basics or Hal Leonard's Essential Elements. Once the student has progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals, I will begin to introduce solo repertoire appropriate for their first recital performance. For adults, I try to find out what the student is interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and fun, no matter their ability level. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Cello Viola Music Keyboard
Methods will be by case to case basis. Children with be asked to purchase the John Thomson Piano Book series as we first dive into reading music notation, learn our Keys, and begin basic music history. If parents are interested I suggest learning alongside children to help with weekly practice. Adults will be depending on resources and goals - What makes you want to take lessons? - Who and what inspired you to do it -What genre are you looking to play *Classical Music ( My expertise) is a lot of fun but can be very demanding, I will not introduce this material unless requested* Read More
Instruments: Piano Keyboard
Understanding a style of a musical composition is always an important part of my teaching process. There are three elements of how I see a complex musician: emotional reaction to music, intelligent understanding of a musical composition, and the technical ability playing the piece. I always project a long-term and a short-term plans with my students. I believe only mutual interest and collaborate engagement would bring us to the goal. Read More
Instruments: Piano Trumpet
My approach to teaching is centered around whether the student is having fun. My goal is never to force anyone to become a professional in our lessons. If you want to get to that level I can certainly help, but I am more concerned about having fun playing trumpet and piano. We will do a lot of listening homework as well, since listening is just as important as playing. A lot of my students so far really appreciate that balance and the break between playing their instruments. Read More

Hi everyone, my name is Kyle I'm a recent graduate from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst.

My passion in music is coming up with new ideas for well known song as well as coming up with my own songs and lyrics. Read More

I started my teaching career in 1996, teaching at the same music studio where I took lessons when I was younger. I try to carry some of the teaching techniques that were shown to me when I was taking lessons into my own style of teaching. This includes making the lesson fun as well as educational for the student. Daily practice is strongly encouraged, as well as playing with other musicians, recitals, and writing their own songs.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
It takes a lot of focus and discipline. I would make sure that practice time is set aside and written into a schedule. Don’t spend too much time focusing on things you aren’t succeeding at but go back to a simpler form that you have already mastered and build on that area. For example, if you are having trouble with a C Major scale in piano, you can go back to a five finger pattern by breaking the scale down into those first five notes (C, D, E, F & G). Once you have mastered this, you can add on A, B, & C.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I had quite a few teachers who inspired me to do music. My mother, first of all, took me a church choir rehearsal at age four or five, and it was love at first sound! My grandfather listened to big band music & songs that sounded like Frank Sinatra. And he was always listening to tapes and records as far back as I can remember. My earliest music teacher was back in kindergarten. Having a music class at that age was so influential for me. My introduction to instruments was in fifth grade when I started taking clarinet lessons. This was when I really started to pick up on music notation/reading music. And although, I've been singing my whole life, I didn't quite learn how to properly sing until my freshman year of high school. I worked incredibly hard for three years so that I could eventually join the elite chorale, which I made my senior year. I would have to say my high school choir director had the biggest influence on me in terms of really studying and pursuing music.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
My music degree is in vocal performance with an additional focus on piano. I chose vocal performance because I have always been singing and this is the instrument that has always come the most naturally for me. I love singing and it just made sense. After a couple of years I chose to add piano lessons because this was another instrument I seemed to pick up quickly and enjoyed playing. I had a goal to be able to sing and accompany myself on piano simultaneously and I was able to reach that goal in time to perform a piece at my recital.
