Clarinet Lessons South

Instruments: Guitar, Clarinet, Bass Guitar, Electric Guitar, Acoustic Guitar

I'm a passionate instructor with over 20 years of playing and teaching experience combined in guitar and bass. In addition, I've toured with a major metal band and have had the opportunity to study and jam with music legends every year. I also teach sight reading, theory and songwriting. I've also had the opportunity to play major rock festivals and I bring a lot of that real world knowledge to my students. Read More

Instruments: Clarinet

My teaching clarinet began when I was in high school, giving lessons to 18+-students after school and on Saturdays. Later, in college, I continued to teach on the weekends, helping to cover additional expenses. Then, in the national guard band, I taught private lessons to several of my fellow clarinetists. After about a two year "sabbatical" I really missed teaching. I then began acquiring new students through the Methodist church I attend. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet, Music

My methodology is somewhat rare, in that I don't have a standardized set of books or resources that I require. I typically focus on fundamentals of musicianship -scales, chords, etc.- as a main focus. as for repertoire, I tend to gravitate to the great American song book/ other Jazz Standards. I will, if I feel the student needs it, assign etudes from various books. I also spend time developing the students ability to recognize and react to sounds that are around. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Clarinet, Bass Guitar, Electric Guitar

I have been an employed private teacher at Lyman music city for 3 years, a student teacher at Spartanburg high school, and an individual contractor hired by Spartanburg high school to teach private lessons/sectionals. Assisting students in gaining a passion for music has always been the highlight of my career and I hope to pursue that goal with any and all students who enter my studio. Students will work on fundamentals as well as repertoire, composition, improvisation, and audiation, all while keeping pace with the student above all else. Read More

My lessons include theory, ear-training and voice training within the context of games and enjoyable activities, as well as technique appropriate to the solos students are working on. I talk about where the music comes from, the composers, and other ideas to make lessons more interesting. We often perform pieces for parents and siblings to show them our progress, and recitals are an exciting culmination of a unit. Read More
