Instruments: Piano Synthesizer Keyboard

For all students no matter if they are children or adults or if they are beginner students or advanced students I would tell all my students to get a large manuscript book and a metronome. Also they should get different musical instructional books. I will teach all my students how to read and write music. Very important. I will teach all my students all different styles of music and the many different ways or many different techniques in how to play music with their individual musical instrument that the student will take up.

Instruments: Piano

There is no single definitive teaching method series. I try to tailor the method to the individual. For the beginning student, my personal favorite series is the Diller-Quaile because it offers a gradual and steady progression from basic to more complex. Also, the material presented is far more interesting than in most other collections. For a more advanced student, I generally assess their capabilities and very often introduce them to the Bach two and three part Inventions. Read More

I love working with kids and see them have an interest to learn more about music! I am 19 years old and have been learning classical piano for 13 years now. I have taken ABRSM London School of Music exams and continued to showcase my skills in school, shows, and gigs. I also played piano for the choir and band in high school and that taught me how to perform with a group and not just myself. Read More

Nothing is more exciting than watching my student build confidence in their talents. Therefore, it is vital that I create a relaxed and comfortable environment for my students. We are learning together; I just provide the guidance and tools! Lessons are tailored to each student, and I love to structure lessons in different ways to add energy and intrigue to the lesson. I find it so helpful to set big goals at the beginning of each month, and then celebrate small successes along the way. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums Bass Guitar Ukulele Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I began teaching when I was 17 and have a pretty busy schedule of up to 35 students a week! Many of those students still continue to take lessons after 3 years of instruction and have improved beyond their original goals. I find that each student has different interests (rock, jazz, classical, pop, etc.) which is why I enjoy focusing on what they want to learn. Other students do not know exactly what they want to learn; however, they just want to improve in playing their instrument all around. Read More
