Merve T

Instruments: Piano Violin Music

I began teaching piano and violin lessons 15 years ago and have been consistently teaching ever since. Encouraging daily practice, and helping the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument is one of the key points. While enjoyment is the number one rule, following their development and progress with certain method books are really important. I encourage my students to compose their own original material as well as participate in certification exams and recitals. Read More

James S

Instruments: Piano Violin Viola Trumpet Recorder Fiddle

My goal is always to take students where they are: beginning, intermediate or advanced and help them discover and develop their own love of music. I do this through introducing music that develops their skill and gives them the satisfaction of playing music that they enjoy. It is not only about playing scales and such but learning to play musically so that people they may play for in the future will enjoy listening to them and they will enjoy sharing what they have learned.

Michael F

Instruments: Violin Mandolin Electric Violin Fiddle

I have been teaching both private and group lessons for ten years, teaching students in their homes, my home, and after. I have noticed a lot of violin students tend to be tense, and judgmental against themselves, so afraid of making a "mistake." So my first task is often to get them to relax, and love playing the violin. I search for ways to make it fun for them and help them learn the music they want to play. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin Viola Bass Guitar Ukulele Mandolin Keyboard Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

Traditional. Classical: Suzuki Jazz: Mel Bay Modern Guitar and Mickey Baker. Styles and lesson books used varied depending upon student and school. I like to involve the student in any way I can and make sure they have an interest in the subject matter. I stress the importance of practicing and enjoyment of music. I believe music is a universal language and I approach lessons with an intuitive understanding of musical elements as well as traditional study of theory and craft. Read More

Instruments: Violin Electric Violin Fiddle Music

I began teaching lessons 4 years ago when I decided to set foot on my career path of choice. I knew teaching violin would always become my career but didn't know quite how I would get there, and here I am 4 years later still pursuing it every day more passionately and purposefully than I have before. I started with posting substitute or private lessons online and got so many great job offers, and from then on I have advertised in schools and local music studios to bring in more clients.

Brandon E

Instruments: Violin Viola

With consistent practice and lessons I’ve had success with having some of my youngest students start with Mozarts twinkle little star and in 2-3 years play at a very high level with skill, artistry and reading abilities in Suzuki books 4/5 Vivaldi Concertos. Students start off with a box violin to focus on posture and ear training right away. Once some of the fine motor skills are established, we transfer these skills directly to the violin, and begin create sound on the instrument. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
I advice all students to know practicing does not have to happen all at once. When you go home and you are trying to figure out how much time you truly have to practice - write out a realistic timeline of how your day looks. Once you have written out how your days look assign about 30 - 45 minutes a day to music. Think of it this way. Your average television show is usually 30 minutes. If you watch 2 episodes of your favorite show, you can practice for that same amount of time. Developing skills is practicing. If you struggled with a specific part of a song at your lesson. I would suggest listening to the song and focus on how to fix that particular section by using the tools taught to you at your lesson. For piano, I notice that a lot of beginner students will not practice because they didn't know what a note was while reading the staff. Usually the book in which the student is reading has the answers. Make sure to look back at the information provided to find the answers. USE THE INTERNET. Formulate questions and research.

When will I start to see results?
Honestly, this depends on the student and the level of their vocal and piano skill. Every student has different practice habits. I always tell students to give lessons about 3 months before noticing significant change for piano and voice. Now for vocal students, some changes will happen immediately and some changes will take time. For piano students, results vary because some students may pick up on theory quickly but not piano playing or vice versa. Some styles might be easier to play versus others. Give lessons a few weeks before getting nervous about results.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
You will know that your child is practicing when you ask them to stop practicing. LOL. Honestly, if you hear your child singing in the shower or playing piano in the middle of the night you will at some point ask yourself - does he or she really need to practice that much. The answer is yes. In order to improve as a musician the student has to practice and sometimes they may practice at odd times. Now you can tell your child to practice after 8am and before 10pm at night. The other sign that your child is practicing is through their behavior. If they begin to dislike lessons it is usually due to the dislike of practicing. If your child does not have the same excitement for piano or voice lessons anymore, it's usually because the student has now realized they do not like music at the level that requires them to practice. Lastly, I will comment on the students practice habits.

The Importance of Creativity in Piano Lessons

...training exists for a good reason. The split between Commercial/improvised and Classical styles was probably caused by the practical needs of an age before recorded music, resulting in an illiberal performance tradition inspired by the need to hear a printed score. Without recordings, the music was heard only if someone had the facility to play it. Even the term “recital,” first coined by Franz Liszt as a musical term rather than a poetry term, shows a desire to preserve the tradition of “reciting” famous music. Yet if I may use another example from this same piano legend, he was also known in his time for ... Read More

This is significantly more detailed and important when you are mixing a studio recording rather than a live performance. This process can be very involved, and is different depending on the recorded instrument.   Each instrument has a unique sound which is referred to as its timbre ... Read More

Many of the directions were delightfully vague in nature, such as “Make it happen,” or “Repeat any note in Morse Code pattern,” providing fun music-making opportunities for both adults and children. When the procession arrived at a park overlook, the score instructed performers to “Play your favorite song as loud as you can.” And indeed, while some used their voices to sing pop tunes, others played familiar ditties on horns and keyboards. Through the entire forty-five-minute procession around the park and Columbia University’s campus, the lanterns created an illuminated canopy over Davis and the local music-lovers, as they created a cohesive cacophony, punctuated ...

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.
