Instruments: Piano
My primary desire for teaching piano is to make a positive impact on children as individuals. In the spring of 2022, I received my Master of Music diploma with a Concentration in Music Education from California Baptist University. I grew up in Veszprém, Hungary, where I started playing the piano at age 7. In 2010 I began her studies at Csermák Antal Music School in Veszprém, where I took lessons from jazz pianist and composer Orsolya Lakatos. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Synthesizer Keyboard
Depending on previous experience, voice lessons tend to begin with foundations of breathing and relaxing the muscles of the jaw and throat. From there, repertoire is developed based on the long term goals and needs of the student. I have taught piano from the Bastien, Keith Snell and Alfreds Music series, and feel most comfortable when the student is open to my advice about which series would be a good fit for then :-) i also firmly believe that working on material a prospective student loves listening to is paramount!

Hello, My name is Sharon L., and I am a musician and board certified music therapist with a diverse background. I love teaching any subject, but music is my favorite. My method is also diverse, as I focus on the method that works best for each individual student and each of their unique goals. I try to focus on helping my students develop a technique that will help them develop their facility, as well as ergonomically safe. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Organ Keyboard
< My teaching experience includes public school, private schools, homeschool groups, and individual studio instruction. Most recently, I am an undergraduate music instructor. I love performing but more that that I love to see my students embrace a lifelong love of music. I employ a variety of hands-on techniques that engage students and use incentives to help them achieve success. In a collaboration with parents, I seek to know the student and set up a positive reinforcement dynamic. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
If you are interested in taking piano/keyboard, guitar or voice lessons...I would really like to be your music instructor! I will travel to your home, hoping to make it more convenient for those students that would like their lesson after school hours. You are also welcomed to my home music studio each week for your lesson, conveniently located in Anaheim. To tell you a little about myself, I was raised in a musical family introduced to music at a very young age. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I like to see what type of music you like and base my lessons around that specific band or style. I will make transcriptions of a song that you've always wanted to learn and we will go over it together. I think playing stuff that you are interested in makes learning music so much more rewarding, you will have to learn the basics like scales, hand positions, and specific techniques but doing it while not thinking you're doing tedious work is so much more fun.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Ukulele Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
From 2009 until 2016 I was on the faculty of the prestigious Orange County School of the Arts in Santa Ana. I also co-owned and managed the Green Room Arts music studio, where I recruited, prepared, and led several middle and high school student guitar orchestras on national and international tours and competitions. In 2017, under my direction, The Green Room Arts Youth Guitar Ensemble won 3rd place in the Large Ensemble division at the prestigious Guitar Foundation of America International Ensemble Competition.

Instruments: Trumpet
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Focusing while you practice is a big part of practicing EFFECTIVELY. The whole point of effective practicing is to fix a problem in 10 minutes, which would normally take 45 minutes. Practice slowly, use a tuner, use a metronome, and PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT YOU PLAY.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
A child is ready for lessons when they feel like they are ready to excel and become serious about their music. Skill level does not matter, as a beginner can be serious about music while and advanced student can be casual about music.
When will I start to see results?
It is hard to pinpoint when a student will put out results. Typically, students go through phases where they become more skilled quicker, or could barely make any progress. It doesn't mean they are not working, it just means that their brain is still piecing together what small detail is needed to make something just a little bit better.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My private teacher in high school, Andrew Gushiken, trumpet player in the Navy Fleet Band, was a large influence in my musical career. He introduced me into the more professional side of playing trumpet, and showed me that I could do it as well if I work hard enough.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
My father was a trumpet player, so it seemed natural that I would play trumpet as well.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Performing with the OSU Trumpet Ensemble Silver included some of the most important performances I have experienced as a musician.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Some of my students have been selected to play solos, or participate in higher skill ensembles. My students that succeed truly enjoy creating music with their instruments, and when a student enjoys what they do, they will typically expel that to their audience.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Creating a tone that satisfies the musician who creates it can be very difficult. Our ears can tell us if it is wrong, but most of the time, our bodies do not know how to fix it, and get it exactly where and how we want our tone to sound.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
Hal Leonard is great for beginning musicians, as it is incremental so a student does not take on too much at once.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
5 minutes of mouthpiece buzzing
15 minutes of Stamp Flow Studies
25 minutes of the Vacchiano Trumpet Routines
10 minutes of Clarke Technical Studies
10 minutes of Irons 27 Groups of Exercises
20 minutes of Etudes
30 minutes of solo work
30 minutes of excerpts
30 minutes of extra time to work on anything else that needs work
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I am currently pursuing a Bachelor's of Music Education, because I personally enjoy the teaching of music, rather than the sheer performance of music.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
There is too much great music to choose a favorite to perform.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Neuroscience, the brain is fascinating in its function and abilities.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Classical. The amount of color that is expelled through classical music is truly amazing. There is so much art in classical music.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I started playing piano when I began composing music. Piano is a very useful instrument to understand at a basic level, as it can influence musicianship.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
My father was a trumpet player in Denton, TX. He passed his trumpets down to me and was my first teacher.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
It was gradual, my love for music increased every year in high school, until my senior year of high school when I decided I wanted to do it for the rest of my life.
