Voice Lessons in Crabb, TX

Instruments: Piano Voice

I like to get an idea from the student and the parent what their expectations are for music lessons. From there, the student and I come up with musical goals to accomplish for that year. We create a practice schedule based on the student's school and extracurricular activities and try to follow that schedule as much as possible. I also like to incorporate other styles of music such as popular Broadway pieces and Contemporary pieces into the student's repertoire so that they can have greater diversity in their piano playing or singing.

For a first timer i typically would relate with the student so as to connect with the basis for their interest in learning the musical instrument. Different students have different levels of perception or assimilation. This i establish before i even start the introductory class proper. Then i go through the fundamentals with the student, and observe their progress along the way. My instruction is flexible even though its structured in a way that prompts the student for further and regular improvements. Read More

I have always believed that music is a conversation between the musician and the audience, and the instrument is the interpreter. With this in mind, with any age, I start with a regular conversation. Knowing the passion, interest level, and motivation of the students helps me create a method of teaching that is specific to the individual. I also learn their experience and knowledge level. I then let the student show me their skills by playing a little, allowing them to loosen up and get comfortable with me, while I analyze and access strengths and weaknesses. Read More

Instruments: Voice

I encourage progress, not the speed of which progress occurs. I set realistic goals and tasks that help focus on other aspects of performing so the student is not focused on their own voice and singing all the time. The very first thing I always do before each lesson is I ask "What do you want to work on today"? This can mean vocal technique, acting choices, interpretation or a particular passage within a song.

My teaching style is very patient and encouraging and I can tailor my lesson plans to suit each individual student. Although building technique and comfort are extremely important, I find that the most essential aspect of learning an instrument is to study the music that you love, and I'm definitely open to adding a bit of musical theory to every lesson if the student is interested. While the student is learning the basics, I also add pieces in different genres to the student's repertoire so that he or she can develop early familiarity with a variety of styles. Read More

The student will have the choice to decide the music that he/she would like to learn to play. My aim is to teach the student all the tools he/she will require to play and enjoy their instrument. My aim is also to make the student independent by introducing him to resources where he can find music to study or learn at his own pace. This is the start of a lifelong love and relationship with your instrument and I would like to make it a part of their reality. Read More
