Nicholas S

Instruments: Piano

I truly enjoy seeing my students learn to appreciate music and its many styles and uses. My teaching style, while keeping a focus on the fundamentals of piano, also encourages creativity and exploration of their own. All students have different learning styles and speeds, and some students may take longer to understand certain concepts. I take this into account before each lesson, and tailor the lesson to be both productive and enjoyable. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice Music Keyboard

I did a lot of YouTube videos for them. I have helped them with performing opportunities such as at churches and events in Lincoln. I always create a connection between learning and performance so that students can strive for the best results to look toward. I don't hesitate to share my experiences to my students so that they have the opportunity to interact and learn in many music areas besides learning piano and singing such as ear training, theory, composition, using the software to record music, and a bunch of other things.

Clara Y

Instruments: Piano Keyboard

For beginning students who are children, I typically start with Essentials Element Piano Theory. I like to separate practical and theory in different sessions so that they are familiar and comfortable with reading the notes while playing. I would also start with some fun and interesting melodies to get the kids engaged. When it comes to learning theories, I would use fun and creative symbols that associates symbols in music to get the student to remember them better. Read More

Blake M

Instruments: Piano Trombone Keyboard

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing real life results from my students. Setting concrete goals is very important for me and my students, weather that be to get into all-state or to be able to play a scale at a certain bpm. First and foremost, I hope to cultivate passion in my students. I believe that when a student is passionate they can learn to teach themselves and my job is to provide that student with as many different tools as possible. Read More

Brandon P

Instruments: Piano Trumpet

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
1. Get on a schedule. The connection between mind and body is an amazing thing. Establishing a regular routine and practice time helps to engage both mind and body within practice, thereby facilitating more efficient development of the mental and physical skills needed to become a better musician. 2. Tune in to the music and out of the media. Given enough time/exposure, even the most motivated minds will succumb to the temptations of readily available distractions. So practice in a room separate from devices that provide distraction. Put the phone on silent and in a different room. Turn off any screens that cannot be easily removed from the room. 3. Start small. Practice for meaningful improvement in a narrow scope. If you try to cover too much ground in a single practice session you will not be able to see much of anything in the way of improvement. Narrowing the scope of a practice session allows for focus and improvement in small areas that when linked together across multiple practice sessions will yield meaningful improvement over a larger scope.

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Control is the most difficult thing to master on the trumpet. It is easy to play loud and fast with an edgy sound. It is easy to play soft and slow with a breathy sound. It takes consistent time and effort to develop the control necessary for consistent tone across every style of music. It takes even more time and effort beyond that to build up the control necessary to modify your sound to play with tone appropriate to each unique style of music. There is a fine line within the tonal range of the trumpet wherein the sound is distinctly that of the trumpet yet does not push the sound beyond the range of pleasant tone.

What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
My favorite style of music to play is jazz. While jazz can have the connotation of being a technically "loose" style of music, an understanding of classical music theory is enormously beneficial to playing jazz. The seeming freedom heard in jazz music is based on the foundation of classical music. As such, jazz is a unique blending of emotion, knowledge, and technical ability that, to me, represents the best parts of music performance rolled up into a single style. Also, the sheer breadth of jazz as a genre of music allows for significant variance in styling and sound while under the same genre umbrella.

...copied and pasted at any location on the guitar. This means that memorizing a few simple scales translates to knowing how to build scales anywhere on the guitar. That’s powerful stuff. To know how and where to play scales on the guitar, you’ll need to at least be familiar with the note names on the 6th string. This shouldn’t be difficult. Starting with the note on the open E string, the note names move up fret by fret. Remember, flats and sharps share the same fret location. For example, the 4th fret is the location of both the Ab and G# ... Read More

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.
