Instruments: Piano Trumpet Recorder Music Keyboard
I have taught trumpet for a while and recently decided teaching online is the way to go. I teach all genre's of music including classical and Jazz. I have seen each of my students grow in their ability to play. From their beginning notes, to their ability to play higher than before. Everyday that I meet with a student is a reward for me. I get to see their improvement week by week. Read More
Instruments: Piano Music Keyboard
I'm a passionate instructor who loves music and loves to share the knowledge and feelings of music. I started to learn how to play piano with my mom, a soprano singer and a piano professor in college since I was 3 years oldIn 2011, I graduated from Communication University of China in Beijing and I worked for 1 year in a Chinese Entertainment company called CN Live. I was a music editor and music event creator back than. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I started studying piano in my early teens and have continued studying all of my life. Even to this day I still practice 30-45 minutes every morning. I have played professionally all of my life as an accompanist for vocal and instrumental soloists, and having taught high school choral music for over 20 years, accompanied a variety of vocal ensembles. I have performed for weddings, banquets, parties, and civic gatherings, and have been my church's pianist and chief musician for the past 15 years. Read More

I have studied with and taken private lessons from many great musicians.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Ukulele Acoustic Guitar
I currently use Piano Adventures Lesson and Theory books for beginner students. I have also used the Alfred series and really like the Finger Power series, too. Fundamentals of music theory is extremely important for new students of any age. I ask students to use the Music Tutor App to help them learn note names for the treble and bass clefs, and they learn by playing a fun game. We sometimes have competitions with siblings to see who can get the highest score! Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
Theory and Composition: Integrating music theory lessons alongside practical piano instruction enhances students' understanding of musical structure, harmony, and composition. I encourage students to compose their own music pieces as a way to apply theoretical knowledge creatively. Performance Skills: Similar to voice lessons, I prepare piano students for performances and recitals. This includes stage presence, interpretation, and effective communication of musical ideas. Utilization of Technology: I incorporate digital tools and software for learning and practicing piano, including interactive apps for sight-reading, theory drills, and virtual keyboard tutorials.

Instruments: Piano Cello Music
I am a positive and encouraging instructor, and emphasize proper technique, music theory, and fundamentals through a variety of musical styles ranging from classical to popular music. My students are all ages (I once had a student start at the age of 70!) and come from a variety of backgrounds and experiences. I work with students to help them balance a practice schedule with the rest of their lives. I consider myself to be a coach and facilitator and work with my students to set realistic, achievable, but challenging goals. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
My advice to any student of guitar is to practice because any one who plays guitar or any other instrument learns - if I don't play, I don't learn. I have also learned that half an hour to 45 minute periods of time can be enough. More than that, can discourage a beginner. Also, even with my many years of experience, if I haven't played in a while, it shows. So enjoy practice, don't burn out, and don't give up!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
The way I believe any child's parents can know he/she is ready to learn an instrument or anything else is interest. If a child listens intently to music, talks about music, or even pretends to play music these are the signs that the child is ready. Some children show little interest in school work, but they easily concentrate on music. Although this can be irritating to a parent, music teaches us organization and the need to listen to the teacher to understand the subject. Also age pass 6 is a good milestone. Size does matter to be able to hold and do proper fingering on a guitar. As funny as it sounds, air guitar can lead to real guitar with the right teacher.
When will I start to see results?
Results are easy to see. Step by step learning to master the basics leads to growing accomplishments. Also, parents and family need to watch as a student takes the basics and turns them into songs. Before long, they will be creating their own music. So results are based on practice interest, and encouragement. If a student has that going for himself, results can come in the first few months. Every step is a success. Remember, they couldn't do any of this before. Their ability to play needs to be celebrated by the family so that students can be proud of their learning.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Yes, I did and his name was Steve Hunter. he was a rock guitarist from my hometown of Decatur, Il. He worked at a music store in our city called Ax-In-Hand. He was the guitar instructor there. I was 10 years old and dreamed of being a big rock star. He was very understanding and patient which is what a good teacher needs to be. He left soon to become a studio musician and later played with Alice Cooper and in the recording studio with Black Sabbath. He took me through the basics of cords and reading music, but he always said to listen to music and try to recreate it. That has been my best guide since his lessons started.
