Michael A. G

Instruments: Saxophone

For my beginner saxophone students we will start by assembling the instrument and using the Hal Leonard's Essential Elements to learn the basic fingerings and songs. As for my beginner piano students we will start off with the Faber Piano Adventures book and work our way through the lessons. Once the student becomes more comfortable with their instruments we will start introducing appropriate solo repertoire and find songs that the individual student would enjoy learning. Read More

Rosanna H

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet

I have been playing piano since age 6 and clarinet since age 10. During my time at university I was taught to play all of the woodwinds, focused on pedagogy and music technology, and achieved many awards and recognition. My clarinet/woodwind pedagogy instructor was a student of Himie Voxman, author of many woodwind teaching method books. My university band was, at that time, considered one of the best in the state of SC, and was invited to play at the state music educators' convention in 2003. Read More

Peter L

Instruments: Saxophone Flute Clarinet

I've been teaching privately for about 15 years, starting when I was a student at Rutgers University in New Jersey. Since that time, I've taught students on Saxophone, Flute, and Clarinet at all levels, from beginners all the way to advanced players in high school. My focus as an undergraduate was in jazz performance, and I love to teach about jazz techniques, beginning to advanced improvisation, and group dynamics. However, I feel that a strong classical foundation is important as well, and emphasize reading and technical studies to make sure my students are as proficient as possible on their instrument.

Rosendo S

Instruments: Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet Euphonium French Horn Tuba Oboe

Since most of the students I teach are members of a band program, I make sure that most of my lessons are based on what is being learned at school. Planning an individual practice schedule is imperative for their success but at the same time make it enjoyable so the student will want to practice. Constant acknowledgement of their progress each lesson the student more eager to learn. Even though the school program may require students to learn from specific material, I also tailor instruction to music they enjoy performing. Read More

England N

Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Flute Ukulele Recorder Euphonium French Horn Tuba

For beginner students who are children, I usually start with the Hal Leonard's Essential Elements. Once the student has advanced to where I can see that they have a good grasp of the fundamentals of the instrument, that is typically when I begin to introduce solo repertoire and supplement with my own material. For adult beginners, I typically will try and use the Essential Elements book to start with but not for very long. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Caroline G

Instruments: Violin

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
To me, mastering an instrument is an impossibility in that there is always so much more to learn!! It is entirely endless! Once you get past one challenge that you have set for yourself, there are loads more which is allthe fun of it! New dimensions can and will unfold to you not only within the spontaneity of each given moment which only comes through the lucidity you bring to that given moment but also to the creation and ability to comprehend metaphors and the language and databases of those metaphors developed overtime! Things that I always work for and with are bow distribution, direction, intonation and INFINITE MUSICAL AND SPIRITUAL SUBTLEITES that unleash themselves within the very given moment of initiation.

Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I began studying under the tutelage of the Suzuki repertoire alongside a more traditional rugged approach to playing the violin. I also learned by playing Kreutzer etudes and exercises from the Carl Flesch books early on in my training. I find that these books worked moderately for my individual learning style. At age 9, I began to steep myself in the learning style of Paul Kantor my next consecutive teacher along the path which included self-created intonation practices and individualized intonation practices and technical practices taken generally from the pieces that I loved and we together chose to explore. This kind of applied learning worked successfully for me. Picture this metsphor for my learning style: it felt something equivalent to that of a moderate mathemtician that was not digesting the material in the most efficient way and was bored by the exercise of math in and of itself until applied to physics and then began to enjoy the math immensely and grew to learn it at a lower-entropied pace. Placing a focal point in such a relationship to something other than itself where it is necessary for that which it is in relationship to feed it and supplement I find is the necessary building block of building a balanced marriage between imagination and logic.

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A normal practice session is variant upon the day but includes a form of meditation (yoga, sitting practice, walking meditation) at the beginning of each session, and before I bow to the instrument, followed by a slow warm up of the technical most difficult passages within the piece that I am working towards. After this, I play something of Bach for an hour to begin and finish with segments of the pieces that I am working on slowly and incrementally with rhythmed patterns. There is also a time and place for running through a piece. This will be explained directly with the individual student at the approrpiate time.

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.
