Instruments:
I believe in an active method of teaching. The student must not be seen only as a receiver but as an active participant in his own learning. The lesson should remain pleasant and joyful so the student can always enjoy playing piano and enjoy the music. The ways of teaching should always lead to the development of the faculties of observation, concentration, creativity, self confidence, personal expression as well as musical skills. Finally I insist on the encouragement and the support of the students regardless of their specific talents or skills towards a more effective and beneficial musical experience.
Instruments:
I am a degreed professional who has years of experience teaching all ages, levels, and many styles. I have taught both classes and private lessons in the Clearwater area for over 38 years. My main instruments I play professionally are guitar, piano, and bass, as well as vocals. I was a Band Director for 28 years and can teach orchestral instruments through High School. I teach students of all ages, backgrounds, and skill levels.Over the years I have developed a technique Book written by me awaiting a publisher when the right time comes about. I teach all ages from beginning through Professional. My object would be to teach and have the student enjoy his or her instrument enough to look forward to the recommended practice session every day. I am very motivating and competent as I was trained by College professionals to teach and perform at a high level.
Instruments:
I'm not one to push a student too hard; after a certain point, it becomes counter-productive. Everyone is going to progress at their own rate and it's my job to find out what that rate is. Naturally different people will gravitate towards different things. By putting some time in and figuring out their strengths and weaknesses, I can address certain concepts accordingly. Personal preference is very important; you can't force enthusiasm. It may or may not come easily, but I intend to make it a worthy and enjoyable experience!
Instruments:
Hey there! I'm a private voice and piano teacher, actor, and singer performing profressionally in both musical theatre and opera. I have both an undergraduate degree in Voice Performance from the University of Colorado (Boulder), and masters degrees in the same from the Chicago College of Performing Arts. I have have students who range from beginners, to stars at the Lyric Opera of Chicago (Lun Tha in their upcoming production of "The King and I" with Kate Baldwin), and the National Tour of "The Wizard of Oz" (as Dorothy). I am currently working at FreeFall theatre in St. Petersburg in their production of "Sondheim on Sondheim."
Instruments:
Despite having had classical piano training via Trinity College of Music and the Royal Schools of Music at an early age, I have always appreciated music of every genre. So as a child I took the responsibility of learning to play other styles on my own. It quickly became obvious not only to me but to my fellow classical students that I had a huge advantage over all the other students in the real music world, because I could appeal to a much wider audience. Over the past 30 years I have stayed true to this concept in all things musical ( including teaching ). I have performed at many different venues all over the world ( fom hotels to cruiseships,to concert halls.). I have also taught many students around the world. Not every audience likes the same type of music so the performer has to be versatile. Similarly, not every student likes the same kind of music so the teacher should be able to adapt. The same thing applies to teaching methods. The same method doesn't work with every student
