Maria M

Instruments: Violin

My teaching method books involve All for Strings and Suzuki books. Suzuki books are categorized from level 1-10, level 8-10 is the equivalent of college level repertoire. I currently have students on level 1-8. In addition, I also look for individual method books and outside repertoire of Suzuki once the student is ready to move at a faster pace or in need of additional help. Finally, I also include basic music theory in lessons. Read More

Carlos M

Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin Saxophone Bass Guitar Organ Acoustic Guitar

To be honest, I never had a formal teaching experience as a music teacher since it is more like a hobby to me. I pursued a different career but music has always been part of my life and my burning passion for it never ceased. When I was a kid, I performed couple of piano recitals, and after several years, I eventually made my mom proud by playing the piano/organ in our church. Read More

Nikkia C

Instruments: Violin Viola

I have been teaching for the past 11 years and have had a full studio of 20-25 students during that time. Over the past four summers I have also directed chamber music and fiddle music camps. I specialize in starting very young children on the violin, as young as age 2, although depending on the child starting between ages 3-6 is ideal. It is very important to me to tailer my teaching to each student and their developmental and musical level. Read More

Shirley T

Instruments: Piano Violin

Most students were sometimes getting good but sometimes they have a hard time playing with difficult notes that I teach. Some students were getting good on the beginning methods and understanding what the music book is going to read and learn about. I encourage the students to practice the beginning methods seriously for about 30 minutes. If the student is getting a little hard, she can take a break for 10 minutes and go back to the homework.

Gabriel D

Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin Viola Drums Conga Latin Percussion Music Electric Guitar Djembe Acoustic Guitar

I am a composer and performer who relishes music education! I hope to be a perfect fit to your needs as a teacher and I am determined to bring the best out of you, whether a beginner, intermediate or advanced student. I am a graduate of Berklee College of Music, where I majored in Contemporary Writing Production (Music Production Arranging) as well as Jazz Composition. At the college, I had to privilege to perform with Arnie Roth at the Boston Symphony Hall as a violinist, as well as perform and record with microtonal pioneer, David Fiuczynski on Drums. Read More

Pejman A

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin Cello Viola Flute Drums Bass Guitar Organ Electric Violin Double Bass

I have an interactive yet focused style of teaching. I can(but don't recommend) to use the Suzuki method. I feel that all aspects related to the instruments weigh much importance in teaching the student. However, with the Suzuki method, the student's primary focus is to learn pieces rapidly and climb the level of difficulty as fast as possible. This prevents him/her to fully understand and analyze the piece and lesson and it can also turn the student away from pursuing the instrument further.  Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Grace R

Instruments: Violin Viola

If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
My Bachelor of Music was a concentration in Violin Performance. I chose this path because I primarily wanted to be a performer able to play in orchestras and live music settings. I was also lucky enough to have a teaching internship during college, so although I was giving recitals and learning major violin repertoire, I was also learning how to be a better teacher. My performance education has allowed me to do everything I want to do because it was a well rounded program. I am able to perform with orchestras and popular artists as well as teach many students!

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A normal lesson with me begins with scales and technical exercises. We go over things like posture, bow hold, and left hand position in the first portion of the lesson. The student focuses on intonation, bowing straight, and making a solid sound. After scales and etudes, we move to any repertoire the student is working on. For younger students, it is generally something out of the Suzuki books. For older students, it is generally a more advanced piece, or any orchestra repertoire they are working on in their school or youth orchestra. While practicing repertoire, we focus on musicality as well as technique.

Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I teach the Suzuki Method as well as All for Strings method books for beginners. My more advanced students use the Carl Flesch Scale Book, as well as standard etude books (Sevcik, Dont, Wolfhart, Dounis, etc.) I grew up learning the Suzuki method, so naturally when I began teaching, those were the books I was most comfortable with. The Suzuki method is a wonderful way for students to learn skills through playing pieces. I find it makes students excited because they are actually getting to play a song rather than only scales or etudes. I supplement the Suzuki method with All for Strings so students get comfortable with note reading and technique early on.

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
My decision to become a professional musician was a gradual one. I began playing the violin when I was eight years old. As I got older, I also became very involved in musical theatre. My schedule was filled with violin lessons and practice as well as stage productions and rehearsals. At some point the violin became my main focus, and I knew I wanted to pursue it in college. I had always been on the music career path in my private lessons, but once I decided to audition for colleges, I had to work even harder and prepare for my professional music education.

Rhythm Notation: Learning to Read Basic Rhythms

...acknowledge the strongest beats in a measure even if they’re not being played. Use the word “and” to account for the eighth notes in a measure. For example, a measure of only eighth notes in a 4/4 time signature should be counted as 1-and-2-and-3-and-4-and. An “e” and “uh” syllable can be used to count sixteenth notes.     Say It and Play It   The act of playing and saying a rhythm is a powerful way to solidify your rhythm reading knowledge. This is because counting out loud forces the music reader to get their thoughts out in the open... Read More

There are plenty of audio and video examples of other performances. Listen to a bunch of them and compare them all. They all sound different, but they all have the same essential elements that lead sheet notation provides. The lead sheet provides the basis for the performers to create a complex arrangement out of. Some recordings are more arranged and some ... Read More

...had on music today.   Jazz Origins The history of jazz is as vast, complicated, and sprawling as the music itself. During the turn of the 20th century, African American folk songs began to intertwine with traditional European music in cities like New Orleans, St Louis, and Chicago. The result became jazz music. Early jazz is often said to be the combination of complex African rhythms and western European harmonies, but it in reality both cultures contributed much more to the art form than that. African music brought hugely-impactful ideas to American jazz music like call and response phrasing and the unique ... Read More

The Benefits of Classical Voice Training

...operatic repertoire. I’ve since echoed the importance of classical voice training in my own teaching after having experienced the benefits of my classical technique firsthand. I’ve performed an abundance of non-classical opportunities as a result of my technique, such as singing backup vocals for a hip hop album or taking on a contemporary, “belty” musical theatre role. I was hired for these jobs largely because the professionals who hired me trusted my abilities as a singer due to my classical background.   Classical technique is commonly used among voice teachers as a healthy foundation for any style of singing because ...

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.
