Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone

I like to create my own lesson plans and materials, though if the student (or their parent) would like a specific method, I would be happy to oblige. For beginner, I start with the fundamentals of reading music: reading note names in different registers, reading rhythms (I like to use the Eastman system for speaking rhythms), and sight-reading skills using movable do solfeggio (all this in a manner that suits the student, whether a child or an adult.

Desiree R

Instruments: Piano Clarinet Music Keyboard

I have been teaching in New Orleans and expanding my studio for over four years. I love to meet my students where they are, push them to be the best musician they can be, and support them in achieving their goals. One way I do that is through asking them challenging questions that require them to apply previous concepts we've learned and reasoning. Another way is training students to use the metronome early on. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin Viola Drums Bass Guitar Mandolin Double Bass Music Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I understand that as a teacher, my job is to not just teach the instrument or a song, but to inspire a deep, passionate love for music. The teachers that had the biggest impact on me and that I enjoyed the most were the ones who cared the most about my relationship to the music I was playing. Because of this, I make sure the student is always engaged in what they are playing and are enjoying it. Read More

Gem B

Instruments: Piano Guitar

Teaching is something I naturally love doing, simply because I see it as an opportunity to share my interest and passion for a particular subject with someone, so that they may develop the same fondness for that subject. I believe the most important role of a teacher is to spark passion and curiosity in his student, hence my goal is to successfully demonstrate to my students why music is so amazing!I have about a year of teaching experience, tutoring high school students.I also have been teaching piano to my roommates and friends during my college, and have successfully hooked many of them to music.

Teacher In Spotlight

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Slow is a pace. Slow is better than no. Not just in the speed of the notes, there is more than one type of slow. If you work and work over time, and you gain just a little bit, then that’s progresss. Slow progress, but progress anyhow. Always forcus on sound. If your trumpet doesn’t sound like a trumpet, that’s not good. Listen to your own sound and think ‘How can I make this sound better?’ Always have a musical statement in mind. Don’t ever play an instrument. Play music. Use the instrument to play music. One requires careful thought and expression, the other can be done by a duck.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If your child can talk, they can study music. We learn music the same way we learn how to speak: imitation. The child just needs to know to imitate, and the rest takes care of itself. If the child is old enough to climb up on the piano bench, and reach the keyboard they are about old enough to begin playing. When I teach privately, I don’t recommend starting below the age of 3 because they need a certain amount of development in their brain to actually begin to make improvements. Musika starts out at 5, and that is a perfectly acceptable age to start lessons. It’s all up to what you want for your child. PS It is never too late to start taking lessons, even in retirement if you have a musical interest, anyone can play music.

When will I start to see results?
That depends on the student’s practice time. I see the student once a week for 30 minutes to an hour. In that time I deliver to the student knowledge, tools, and a model, for tackling the musical skills. In order to see measurable change, a student must take that set of information and apply it daily, but they can’t just go through the motions. They have to be actively thinking, actively listening, to their own playing, their own mistakes. I will teach them how to be effective practicers, but it is up to them to become effective practicers. The time will vaty from student to student.

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My steel band teacher had the utmost concern for high quality performance in our high school steel band. She could always tell when we made a mistake and was incessant about playing in the correct style. She also invoked to us hard work leads to excellence, excellence leads to pride. My pride in what we were able to accomplish in that band confirmed to me that she knew what she was talking about, and that if I took what she taught me in that class with me I will have a good life in music. I use her message in everything I do. Thanks Marta.

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.
