Josh H

Instruments: Violin Cello Viola

I had around 20 students I taught on a weekly basis ranging from the ages of 4 to 60; the majority being on the younger side. However, I think its never too late to learn an instrument! I am now an Orchestra Director at a local high school and teach privately as well. I love what I do and want to share my passion for music and the pride that comes with the mastery of an instrument with others. Read More

Instruments: Violin Viola

I mainly use the Suzuki method, but also teach other non-tradiational methods including hmyns, gospel, ect. Read More

Kasey K

Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin Viola Bass Guitar Harmonica Mandolin Electric Violin Fiddle Double Bass

My teaching experience spans 6 years. I've taught all ages, so I'm comfortable with everybodys learning pace. In college I studied under the Latin Grammy award winning La Catrina Quartet, and I hope to pass down the knowledge I gain from that experience to my students. With my students, I take them step by step through were they are as a musician, to were they need to be. My experience working in ensembles will also expand my students ability to play in groups of all sizes (which will often happen). Read More

Jacquelyn J

Instruments: Violin Cello Viola

I am a passionate instructor who enjoys working with students of all ages. I started performing, professionally, at a very young age, during my 6 years at the Alabama School of Fine Arts. From there, I attended the Louisiana State University, as a cello performance major and performed with the school symphony, as well as the Alexandria Symphony, the Lake Charles Symphony and local venues. I went on to get my Master's degree at Georgia State University and then returned to Louisiana State University for my final degree in Cello Performance. Read More

Sherri K

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin Ukulele Recorder Music Keyboard

My teaching style is more hands on approach, I have a lot of opportunities for my students to perform. I believe that actually playing the instrument will make them better players and performers. Even when a student sign up for private lessons, I have opportunities for them to perform in groups. I think that students learn better when they have the chance to perform in a group. I also hold master classes for the students to learn from. Read More

Abigail M

Instruments: Piano Violin Viola

I began teaching private students in high school, and have been consistently teaching students in my studio for the past five years. Many of my students have gone on to be very successful in youth orchestras, school programs, and music conservatories. During my senior year at university, I had the opportunity to serve as a faculty member for my university's pre-college music program. In this role, I represented the university by providing musical instruction to young upper string students. Read More

Marcela C

Instruments: Violin Viola

When teaching students how to play an instrument I always keep in mind my end vision: students realizing that music is not just about perfecting the technical skills required to play, but it’s about getting to express that which makes us human; our feelings, personalities, hopes and dreams, our realities. I am incredibly passionate about music; this is because it has always been a way for me to examine myself deeply, understand my strengths and weaknesses, and make sense of my existence. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Anthony G

Instruments: Bass Guitar

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I have wanted to be a musician since I was little. I would watch videos of Elvis and watch how he moved the crowd. He could ask the to do anything and they would have done it.

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I would be a chef. There are many forms of art. Painting, sketching, sculpting. There are just as many mediums of that art. We can of course paint or draw, we can build things out of wood or metal or glass. We can make things out of food. I can't think of anything else that makes people more happy than a good meal.

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The two hardest things to master on bass guitar are the proper tone to fit into whatever music you are attempting to play and finger strength. Bass guitar strings are 10 times thicker than guitar strings and they can be very abrasive. For the first couple of months, your hands are going to cramp up.....LOL!

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I can't lie on this. I saw my first KISS video clip in 1976 and thought Gene Simmons was the coolest thing I had ever seen. I also was able to see at a young age how music moved people.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
To practice effectively one must filter out distractions. Put down the phone, turn off the TV, and focus. We also need to understand what it is we are trying to learn. We have to understand the goal of the student / parent before we can discuss how we are going to learn. We will only practice that elements that we set out to learn. When the student has learned that, then we move on. That is very important. We cannot skip steps.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
I would not recommend starting lessons until 11 or 12. Preteens and even some adolescents don't have the concentration to focus on lessons. Around 11 or 12 is when I would begin to examine their interest. Do they sing in key to songs on the radio? Do you see them in the back seat "playing drums" on their thighs? Can they keep time? Those are some good signals

When will I start to see results?
If they actually practice what I give them to practice, you should see results in 4-6 weeks. If you have to make them practice the instrument........you are wasting time and money.

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My inspiration was a man named Bobby Slone. He was the upright bass / fiddle player for a world famous bluegrass group called JD CROWE and THE NEW SOUTH. He lived close to me and was very patient. He knew so much of what the bass was, and where it should be in a song.

Accidentals In Music: What They Are and How They Work

...devices that provide tension and drama within the sonic story of a piece of music. Composers don’t use accidentals in music, rather they write melodies and chord progressions that sound good or interesting to them. We can use various music theory ideas like accidentals to explain what they’ve done and perhaps why they made the choices they made.     Put What You Know Into Practice   Now that you know how accidentals operate within music, try analyzing different pieces of music and see if you can identify notes that are played outside of the key. This shouldn’t be difficult, because all you’ll need to do is look for flats, sharps, and natural signs.... Read More

There’s no real advantage to these tuners other than the fact that some come with a metronome.   Pedal (Stompbox) Tuners:     These nifty pedals are a real gift for any serious musician who performs often. Pedal tuners fit right into any guitarist’s pedal board so you can just plug in, tune, and play. In addition to tuning, these tuners also completely mute your guitar, so they’re any easy way to reduce unwanted buzzing or stage noise from electric or acoustic guitar. These tuners don’t ...

I’m Not the Only One Chords for Beginning Guitar (Sam Smith)

...Dm chord on beat 1 of the next measure. Add a percussive strum on beat 2 Switch to the Bb on the “and” of 2. Add a percussive strum on beat 4. Aim for keeping a steady rhythm throughout.   Basic Fingerstyle Technique   I’m Not the Only One is perfect for beginning fingerstyle players. The right hand is notated as follows: P = Thumb I = Index M = Middle A = Ring   I find that using a pick to strum the chords can be a little too harsh sounding for the mood of this tune. For that reason, I suggest ... Read More

Jazz Exercises for Saxophone: Intermediate Studies in 12 Keys

...great understanding of Music Theory, particularly in relation to harmony. Each chord is not its own entity; chords are not isolated or random. There are pre-dominants, dominants, and tonics. Jazz musicians understand this because they have to. This is a necessary part of being a great improviser.   With the digital pattern exercises, we were treating each chord as its own thing. Practicing digital patterns can feel like a tedious process and doesn’t sound very inspiring or interesting, but it’s a necessary first step. You need some understanding of vocabulary before you can begin to understand syntax. After understanding each ... Read More

Your intention might just be the thing that sustains you through the ups and downs of songwriting. Practice will make you better, but there’s never a guarantee that your efforts will get what you want if your intention is to make money or to attain notoriety or acclaim from writing songs.

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.
