Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Trumpet Trombone Drums Bass Guitar Organ Synthesizer Double Bass Euphonium Tuba Orchestral Percussion Keyboard Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I began teaching music in high school, a friend coworker had a son that wanted to learn trumpet and it was a fun way to make money. As I continued into college, I learned that I was able to give lessons to members of the band or choir as an employee to the Adrian College Academic Services Department and I was happy to do so. In addition to Adrian College students, I also gave lessons to local high schoolers (mostly tuba players) and many where featured and scored well in state Solo and Ensemble exhibitions. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin Viola Bass Guitar Synthesizer Banjo Ukulele Mandolin Lute Electric Violin Fiddle Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

Students should have fun!!! Learning how to improvise and create your own music is a skill every child can learn. I create play-along videos so that you can practice at home... I present information in an educational and entertaining way for a living. A high achiever from a young age, I performed in Carnegie Hall at age 19, and was professor at two Universities by age 22. I've studied privately with the head of both Julliard's and Yale's guitar departments. Read More

Hello future students! I much enjoy sharing my experience as a creative musician to my students whether they are 5 or 55, beginner or advanced. I am a patient teacher and do my best to encourage each student to find themselves as unique learners (musicians) unto themselves. I graduated from Columbia College Chicago in 2002 with a BA focus on Music Composition. While recently living in NYC, I formed a 12-member saxophone orchestra, composed and recorded two symphonies, performed and recorded with the late Glenn Branca's 100 Guitar Ensemble, and provided live Sound Design for renowned poetess Anne Carson.

I have a Bachelor's degree in cello performance from Utah State University, where I studied with Anne Francis Bayless of the world-renowned Fry Street Quartet. I also have a Master's degree in composition from Arizona State University, and am currently working toward my Doctorate in composition at the University of Michigan. Read More

Every student is different.  Music Theory, various styles and forms and performance are all important and part of the main focus.  I also like them to learn songs and styles that they enjoy. It's important for them to pick up their instrument every day, develop their calluses and coordination.  I find this not only encourages them to play and explore more on their own, but keeps their focus on developing their own style.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Synthesizer Keyboard Electric Guitar

While I'm very new at teaching music, I have many years of experience in teaching in general. I've been pretty successful as a private math tutor since 2009, and more recently I've also been tutoring in ACT prep, SAT, prep, and C++. I'm very glad to be transitioning to music, since that is a topic I'm very passionate about. I love so many things about teaching, and I can't wait to see how they transfer to music lessons.

Teacher In Spotlight

Adrian B

Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone French Horn Tuba

What is your dream piece to perform and why?
The Arutunian trumpet concerto is one of my favorite pieces that I always enjoy performing. In my personal opinion this piece is one of the best written pieces for the trumpet. What I mean by this is that there are some pieces that are written for trumpet that the composer may have been thinking about another instrument being able to play it, so the piece may include techniques that are not best suited for the trumpet. However, this piece is perfectly written for the trumpet even though it is not easy.

If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have a Bachelor's degree in performance and a teaching license in Music: Instrumental Prek-12. I chose the performance degree because I wanted to become a professional musician and I felt that this would present the most challenges and help me improve with my instrument. After this, I decided that I wanted to more know about the pedagogy of the instrument so I began to take music education classes and pursuit a teaching license in instrumental music. I have recently finished all the required classes for this license and I am preparing to take the Praxis exams.

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
It is very important to warm up, even more so for the trumpet player. However, I like my students to know and understand the difference between warming up and practicing your technique. The first thing I do is warm up, this should take no longer than 10 minutes. After this, I rest as long as I warmed up. I then practice the first lessons of the Clarke or Arban's book (which contain scales). I will rest again and after this I will practice some of the flexibility and staccato studies of the Arban's book. It is important to mention that in order to make sure that I am resting enough, I will often record everything so that I am encouraged to listen to what I just played. Because resting can be boring, listening to what I just played keeps me entertained and at the same time I don't overwork. After this, I begin to work on the music that I am currently playing. When practicing on new music, I will often work backwards. In other words, I will start working on the end of the piece rather than the beginning. On the music, I will circle all the places that need the most work and I will spend most of the time working on those sections only.

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.
