Angela C

Instruments: Piano Violin Cello Viola

I have extensive experience as a teacher as well as a performer. I bring these two accomplishments together to provide a well rounded experience for my students.  In High School, I performed with the Kansas City Youth Symphony for 8 years, the Kansas City Cello Choir for eight years, the Missouri All-State for three years, and various other honor orchestras throughout her career. While still attending Drake University, I played in the Drake Symphony Orchestra, the Des Moines Symphony and the Encore String Trio. Read More

Ani C

Instruments: Piano

If my students aren’t enjoying their lessons, I feel I’m not doing my job effectively! I also emphasize creativity, encouraging students to compose their own original pieces, alongside preparing for competitions and recitals. These experiences give them a sense of accomplishment and inspire them to continue learning. I am always excited to welcome new students of all ages and skill levels, tailoring my approach to meet each individual's needs and goals. Read More

Kevin W

Instruments: Piano Voice Synthesizer Keyboard

I have been teaching since I started University, about 6 years ago, both as a private teacher and also as a teacher at private schools in LA. I have had students of all ages, from kids in school to adults, all levels. I personally believe that music and practicing should be fun. Motivation is key when learning an instrument, and by exposing the student to their preferred musical style will allow them to work even harder at their skills. Read More

keen C

Instruments: Piano

My style is congenial and open-minded. I encourage students to initate questions and ideas, and to name song they like. Then I analyze the style and content of the songs they like, and find out their personality and psychological characteristics. Then find out the practice materials of scales, chords and arpeggios according to the musical ability of the students. as well as the repertoires of different periods of music that match the student's skills.I will also find out the students' hand shape and finger sensitivity during the pratice proocess, and use relevant to improve and solve them.

Jean-Luc P

Instruments: Piano Voice

I am a very relaxed teacher - I know that we do our best musical work when we are free from the constraints of judgment. So, I work very hard to create an environment of free artistic expression for my students, where they can feel at liberty to take chances in their music and know that I will be there to encourage them and help them find their way to what it is they aim to achieve musically.

I have also excelled as both a teacher and a tutor. In 2011, I began my own business teaching piano, strings, composition/music theory and electronic music production. Additionally, I have set up sound and instrumentation for orchestras and bands including Trey Anastasio of Phish and The National Chorale at Lincoln Center and has performed at Carnegie Hall. I also do string-instrument repair and maintenance. While working as an administrator at the NJ Workshop for the Arts, I was given many opportunities to step into leadership roles, both as administrator and educator. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Feef M

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Bass Guitar Banjo Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
My mother is very musical. She sang in church choirs, plays piano and guitar.

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
Every time I tried to move away from music, it came back and grabbed me. I got my Master's in Education from HArvard University and was set to interview to work on Children's Television Workshop in Boston, Mass But I went back to Scotladn, started busking inthe streets of Edinburgh adn fell in with a proudcer who ended up recording my songs and getting me a publishing deal in London.

If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I started by playing the piano, then grabbed my mother's guitar and stared playing that. Later, I gravitated toward bass, banjo, autoharp,dulcimer, ukelele, melodica. I do play some violin too. As I am a producer, and have a Pro tools and Logic studio, I find it helpful to play as many instruments as I can.

What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I love the electric guitar. i love playing blues riffs. I love grunge music (my generation, I guess) and I love jazz. But I also love Celtic music, American Folk music and I like to play in different tunings on the guitar.

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I am also a writer and an English teacher.

If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
B.A in Music, English and Theater. I wrote scores for theater when in college.

What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I like to take one songwriter/band and learn as much as I can from him/her/them. recently, I have been learning as much as I can about The Beatles. Studying each song is a huge education

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
We go something like this: 1. 10-15 minutes warm up: scales, drills, chords. Change tempos. 2. The rest of the session is on repertoire: we have a number of songs we want to learn. And so we work the song. I teach from the original recordings. we adapt as we go, but we really study the original work and learn as much from it as we can.

Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
When I teach piano, I use Hanon. These are the best finger exercises ever created. As to guitars, bass, string things, I use my own method. My book has not been published but one ofthese days it will be!

Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Two of my students have ended up with record deals. I provided a safe space for them to work on their crafts and record, I did not judge. I simply recorded them very well, and inspired a lot of confidence.

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing is to stick with it. Patience. Also focus. This is why an sintructor can be so helpful. It takes a while to build confidence and to get a sense of what you want to do with your instrument. You need support and structure.

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I was awarded BEST NEWCOMER in the UK and got to represent my country in Japan at a World Music Festival. The award was given to me by Sir Goerge MArtin, and I will never forget that moment, though I regret I was so young I tried to hug Sir Martin! And that was not appropriate!

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I really didn't. The guitar chose me. I had to write songs. I started writing when I was six, on the piano. The instruments were there, adn I felt the need. They drew me to them.

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
The answer to this is that my teachers were so awful I was determined to go into music to be better than they were to me. One viola teacher made me, for a month, stand and hold my viola. I didn't even play. And then he criticised the way I held the instrument.

When will I start to see results?
The result you want to see is a need the child will feel to play the instrument! To express. To release energy.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Build in foundation work. Practice scales, chords, and work with a metronome. Do the stuff that isn't fun first. But get it done. And do it often. Know theory. Learn how to read, if notation, tablature, chord charts. Anything that works.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
You will easily know if your child starts playing an instrument on his or her own. Do not push or force music on a kid.

...of those keys. The chords are either major, minor, or diminished. The great news here is that these assigned chords never change. We use a simple system of Roman Numerals to describe the way chords operate in keys. This is what the Roman Numerals look like for the chords of major keys:   I-ii-iii-IV-V-vi-vii° The larger Roman Numerals represent major chords, while the smaller ones represent minor chords. The 7th chord at the end with the circle represents a diminished chord. Here’s what natural minor keys look like:   i-ii°-III-iv-v-VI-VII Roman Numeral analysis is meant to help musicians understand the relationships between chords, and we... Read More

What is 'Concert Pitch'?

...topic here. In terms of the content of this article, chromatcism was not always possible on instruments. A great example is the flute. Consider the history of the flute. For a long time, flutes were diatonic instruments in many cultures. To play in a different key, you would need to play a different flute. But, now it is possible to pitch every instrument to C. The technology exists. Why don’t we simply change every instrument to a non-transposing instrument? Hopefully this hypothetical question sounds completely ridiculous to you. There are many reasons why this wouldn’t be plausible. Technically, it would be possible, but it wouldn’t be ... Read More

The Kodály Approach – More than Hand Signs

...Kodály inspired classrooms. Like any good educator, Kodály inspired music teachers use a great deal of tools that aid in music teaching and learning. In addition to solfege syllables, rhythm syllables (like “ta” and “ti-ti”) are an important tool to promote music literacy. There are two main types of rhythm syllables that are used in the music classroom. The first is a system based on note value. An example of this system would be the syllables developed by Chevé. In this system, the quarter note is “ta”, the eighth note “ti,” etc., no matter where the note is placed in ... Read More
