Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Trumpet Drums Bass Guitar Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Latin Percussion
I have been teaching for four years in many capacities, from teaching full bands, to working one on one with students of all ages. I have taught many older students who have a strong foundation in music, as well as young students with no music expierience at all. I have competed in competitions and been a featured soloist, and my love for music challenges me to be the best teacher I can be. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Clarinet
For my younger students I usually start with major and minor scales tied in with simple to challenging etudes. I do not have a specific book that I work out of, though if the student has one that they work out of I would be happy to accommodate. For adults I usually have the same approach, but we will focus more on a specific genre or style that they may want to emulate. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I'm a passionate and motivated instructor who loves working with students and sharing my love of music. I'm currently an undergraduate student at the University of Wisconsin, Madison and I'm still playing piano in school and teaching piano part-time. I'll be teaching both online and at my home studio in Kirkland. I've performed in several recitals when I was living in the Bay Area. I recently moved from the Bay Area to Kirkland. Read More
Instruments: Piano Drums Orchestral Percussion Latin Percussion Music
I have taught in the classroom, small group settings as well as one on one in both piano and drumset. My favorite thing about music instruction is connecting with the students on a musical and personal level. I started studying piano at the age of 5, making it my career as a teacher after college and into adult life. Choosing to focus more on drumset and percussion studies at the age of 11, I then studied Percussion Studies in College, playing in many bands and in multiple styles. Read More
Instruments: Piano
My lessons can be fun! Students know that they can approach me with any questions or comments that arise from the subject matter at hand. In spite of this informality, they can rely on my knowledge and experience in the music world. I now teach successfully on Skype or Zoom with distant learners. My students with regular practice (so important) can progress from beginner to advanced. Technique is important such as scales, chords and theory but once reading music a student can diversify into their own particular styles such as jazz, classics and other popular styles. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums
No single approach works with every student when teaching drums. There are simply too many styles and methods to choose from. But when working with beginners, I tend to focus mostly on developing a good internal sense of rhythm and good listening skills. Then if the student wishes, we may specialize in classical, jazz, rock, latin, or whatever style the student is interested in. There are many excelent published methods to choose from and I occasionally assign etudes and excersizes of my own. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I am a recent graduate of Seattle Pacific University and happily teaching in the Seattle area from my Magnolia home and in surrounding student's homes as well. I enjoy performing and teaching, and strive to give my students the best music lessons I can give supplemented by great recitals and performance opportunities. Read More
Instruments: Piano Keyboard
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
My favorite genre of music is classical, especially romantic era like Chopin, Schumann, Rachmaninoff. I sometimes play or listen to jazz like telenious monk or ella fitzgerald too, but i choose classical over them because i never get tired of them n listen to them every single day. Music gives me joy, comfort, tears, heart warming n pounding all together. I have to listen to them every single day to survive, especially on my sad or depressing days. Think about it! Why would people use music for all those different occasions? Because it helps each of the occasions out to be even happier or give comfort.
When will I start to see results?
It really depends on how focused you are n how much time you spend practicing with. I sometimes have students requesting to have lessons with me more than once a week. I tell them directly n right away that it seems like a waste of money. Having a multiple time of lesson per week does not make you play better or learn faster. You should rather practice more everyday or at least 5 days a week at least than 2 to 3 days a week, for example. Having a great teacher would help to be able to learn quickly or play well, of course, than a someone who is not as famous. However, students should not think taking many lessons per week would automatically make them play superbly well all of a sudden. There is no easy thing we can accomplish in life, especially in music. This is something you being able to accomplish a tiny bit at a time by doing it everyday, diligently, n sincerely.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
I usually prefer teaching students who are at least 6 yrs old of the age. The reason is a lot of times the students who are younger than that do not seem to read or write n that makes the piano learning experience pretty difficult n frustrating for both the instructor n the student. I think the student doesn't have to read or write fluently, but at least be able to read the 7 alphabet we use in music, n be able to count 1 to 10 since we have 10 fingers. Also i have experienced before that if a student doesn't read, they don't know what their home work is. Therefore, someone like their mom or dad always have to tell them what it is by reading it for them. Quite inconvenient i would say.
