Marty M

Instruments: Piano Drums

Although I have taken several college classes in music -- everything from music theory to Garage Band (music software) -- most of my education as a musician, and as a music teacher, has come from real-life musicians! I've personally grown up with many excellent piano players, drummers and singers, so I've been taught by the best. My first love was piano, and currently I sing and play the drums in my church choir.

Hyeji P

Instruments: Piano

I started teaching in 2008 when I started college. I started couple of young students who were very beginners which was very fun! I love how creative young kids are. I learned a lot from my students. I also taught in music academy for a long time and it was totally different experience than private students teaching. I learned a lot about how to manage/teach many students in short amount of time.

Yi-Chien L

Instruments: Piano Cello

I'm a professional and motivated instructor who just graduated from UT Austin and would love to share music with whoever wants to learn. It has been 16 years for playing cello and orchestra whether in school and outside of school, and also for teaching experience. I have been working with several Maestros, including Bion Tsang, Rapheal Bell, Peter Seidenberg, Peter Opie, and Jonathan Spitz, and I had an opportunity to perform in the Taiwan National Concert Hall with Haik Kazazyan, who was the third-place of International Tchaikovsky Violin Competition.

Tanya J

Instruments: Piano Flute

My teaching experience dates back to my college days, as I began teaching private lessons 15 years ago, and have been teaching students at my home and at students' houses. Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I emphasize for my students. To truly become an accomplished musician, a student must be motivated to practice daily. I've found that teaching both classical and modern music motivates students to practice and continue to learn. Read More

Molly M

Instruments: Piano

I like piano lessons to be enjoyable while still providing an atmosphere of learning. Exactly how a lesson unfolds varies from student to student in order to fit the needs and desires of each individual student. Each student and I will determine what pace works best for that student. We will also work together to determine how to construct our lessons so we can introduce new information in ways that best help that particular student understand the concepts. Read More

Lauren E

Instruments: Piano Voice

I am a driven and compassionate teacher with an equal passion for music and teaching. I graduated from Luther College in May 2019 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music with a minor in Education. I have been singing and playing piano for as long as I can remember, and have performed with a variety of different groups and ensembles throughout the United States, including tours with the esteemed Luther choirs.

Adam W

Instruments: Piano

I like to first assess what is the primary goal of the student and progress from there. Teaching methods that are too strict or too generic can often leave a lasting impression on a student (and not a good one!) Thus, I attempt to make all students feel comfortable and secure - with an understanding that mistakes are necessary to progress forward. Read More

If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
My Masters Degree is in Music Education with a Piano emphasis. I was playing trombone in the large ensemble, but taking private studio lessons on piano. I chose music education as I was already 17 years into a thriving teaching career. Earning a masters degree in education would help provide me with more strategies to be effective in my teaching relationship with students. As long as you are majoring in a music study, performance is a big part of your program. I still perform quite frequently, with and without students. Sharing this passion through education allows the passion to spread and flourish.

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
That is a relative question, based on the level a student is playing. Beginners often struggle to get two hands to play independently of each other. It can also be a challenge to move into a triple time signature. More advanced students sometimes find it a challenge to bring musical expression into a technical piece with phrasing, dynamics and tempo. Playing at a consistent tempo and not rushing can be a challenge, especially in performance situations. The piano is a very expressive instrument, great for solo and accompanying. Putting it all together is exciting!

Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
Yes, I do use specific curriculums in the interest of making sure all the bases get covered. I have used most of the major ones through the years, but have primarily narrowed it down to a couple now, at least for the beginners and intermediates. Depending on progress and efficiency of learning, I will make a choice of which method I think may be beneficial to a particular student. More advanced students begin to choose a direction their musicianship is leading them, so curricular choices become more varied.

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
Students are given 3-4 books to work out of - Technique, Theory, Piano Literature (where everything is ties together into actual songs) and Performance. Practice sessions should begin with some technical studies for warm-up of fingers and mind. These are very gradual in their approach to technique - fun little exercises suited appropriately for the level where a student is currently. Upon completing the technique practice, move into the piano 9lesson) book. I would suggest playing the song through as far as you can comfortably go, making note of anything that needs work. Then, go back and work your way through the problem spots slowly. Pick out just the tiniest part of that spot until you can play it well. Then add some context to it until it can be played well, three times in a row preferably. This little fixit session should be applied each day until the song can be played all the way through with no mistakes.

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.
