Justin B

Instruments: Guitar Trumpet

Hi, my name is Justin and I've been teaching private lesson. And teaching band since 2015. I went to Wisconsin Lutheran College and earned my degree in 2007. Before beginning teaching I was a stay at home dad for a number of years until my two kids were in school full time. I'm very passionate about creating an appreciation and love of music in students of all ages. I love helping my students have fun, learn new skills, and grow as musicians. Read More

Grover N

Instruments: Piano Voice Trumpet Synthesizer French Horn Keyboard

I have taught music lessons both in college as well as for several years before that. I have experience coaching chamber groups, performing and running groups, as well as teaching both musical and non-musical subjects at a variety of levels, including one-on-one tutoring. I base all of my methods on proven cognitive research and fun yet rigorous hands-on experience. When I was younger, I experience many struggles as a musician, and had to work both hard and smart to overcome my more immediately talented peers. Read More

Ethan A

Instruments: Piano Voice Trumpet Trombone Euphonium French Horn Tuba Music Keyboard

I started teaching music when I was a junior in high school. I continued teaching private lessons through my college career to local grade school and high school students. College was where I learned how to teach and play strings, woodwinds, percussion, voice, and piano in addition to brass. Once I graduated with my Bachelor's degree, I taught as the adjunct professor of low brass at Saint Joseph's College teaching tuba, trombone, euphonium, and capstone performance courses to the college's music majors.

Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone Clarinet Euphonium French Horn Tuba Music Keyboard

Building a solid method approach for every student is essential to the students success. I choose a custom approach for each student, because each student is unique. There are many overlaps to my approach for each students lesson plan, however every lesson needs to be altered a little, since some students struggle in areas where others might succeed. Fundamentals are the foundation for successful music making, and thus are the foundation of the lessons I teach. I have worked with many different method books and do not have a single preferred book, rather each student may need something different depending on their strengths and areas that need improvement.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin Cello Viola Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet Bass Guitar Ukulele Recorder Euphonium French Horn Tuba Electric Guitar Djembe

In essence, my love of teaching stems from my Mom's love of teaching. She sincerely desired to teach my siblings and myself to pursue our highest dreams. It turned out that I did succeed as a star performer in music, on stages around the world. But also, when I decided to settle down, I added education to my 10-year plan. So, I went back to school for another master's degree, and taught music in CPS - performing three nights per week with my the Bartels/Benson duo, Connexion Band, Prohibition Orchestra, Bryan Skyler Trio, and other groups.

My teaching experience began in the fall of 2010, when I started my college career. Since then I have been teaching private lessons and have also taught in group homes. I encourage short, frequent practice sessions with a variety or repertoire to keep students motivated. I am always looking to bring on new students of all ages! Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Mark K

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Trumpet Trombone Ukulele Recorder Euphonium French Horn Tuba Music Keyboard Acoustic Guitar

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am most proud of my experience performing as a production singer and vocal captain for Carnival Cruise Lines. Performing on the Carnival Spirit gave me the opportunity to make a living as a performer while traveling the world. I could not have had that experience without years of music education in my life!

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
When I was in the 5th grade, I decided that I wanted to play the trumpet because my grandfather played the trumpet. As a kid I had always looked up to him growing up and playing the trumpet made sense to me. Singing was always a passion of mine even when I wasn't "studying" singing in the traditional sense. My love for signing, and my interests in other famously talented singers was what motivated me to pursue a degree in voice and vocal music education. When you know what you want to do in life, you don't stop until you make it happen!

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
I believe your child is ready to start lessons if they are starting to show an interest in singing or playing and instrument, they have experience learning from an adult other than their parents, and can focus for a 20-30 minute lesson.

When will I start to see results?
Each student's growth is different, but my students will leave each lesson with new knowledge of concepts. Results are also influenced by the amount of time spent practicing outside of the lessons!

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Of course! I had several teachers that inspired me to go into music. Each one of these instructors believed in me, and pushed me to be a better musician. It was their passion for teaching and belief in my abilities that helped shape me into the musician and educator that I am today.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
If you want to take you musicianship seriously, you really should try to practice everyday. One may think that the most productive practicing method would be to repeat an entire song over and over again, for as many hours in a row as possible, each day. However, it has been proven to be more effective to practice small segments of a piece of music, specifically the sections you are having the most trouble with, for shorter periods of time. By isolating the troubled sections, you're able to learn an entire piece of music in a shorter period of 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.
