Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Bass Guitar Synthesizer Ukulele Keyboard Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

My expertise is in teaching modern guitar performance, vocals, music technology, songwriting, audio engineering, and music production.  I emphasize practicing and encourage students to have fun with music.  Every student learns at their own pace, yet I find that setting short term and long term goals help greatly in my students' progress. *** Travel Equipment *** I can provide keyboard and recording equipment. I expect my students to be able to provide their own guitar for lessons. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums Conga Latin Percussion

My teaching experience dates back to 1996, when I began teaching lessons to children in at-risk communities in dance and music, while going through school in Oakland. I then continued in Stockton, CA, where I developed music and dance programs in the Recreation Centers, and later developed my own non-profit organization. I began writing my own grants to teach classes in after-school programs, and in 2013, while attending my music program, I began instucting private music classes in classical guitar, beg. piano and beg. voice.

Wendy D

Instruments: Voice

My lessons typically start with stretching and breathing exercises and then transition to vocal exercises. The vocal exercises serve to strengthen their technique and solidify skills needed to tackle their song. I always ask my students what kind of music they are interested in and find songs to work on that will help strengthen their voice, but also connect with their soul. We will "workshop" their song to work on vocal production as well as fine tune their presentation and performance. Read More

Samantha S

Instruments: Voice

I prefer to take on students who are considered "intermediate" or at least working toward the intermediate level and advance because I specialize in developing a singer's performance quality. It's important that the student has basic vocal technique training prior to training with me because they'll have a technical foundation and sense of confidence that will allow them to explore (or as I like to call it "play") more of their vocal capabilities.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums Bass Guitar Conga Electric Guitar Djembe Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I began teaching Guitar and Piano during college as a way to expand my playing and teaching skills. Over the years I gained extensive knowledge of teaching techniques and how to work with students at all levels, ages, backgrounds, and understanding of theoretical music application. I handle my students with care, respect, and motivate them through positive reinforcement of their milestones while learning. Moreover, I have taught guitar and piano to over 200 students in the last decade - many have pursued careers in music, and some have even surpassed my accomplishments. Read More

Instruments: Guitar Voice Bass Guitar Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I assess what the student's current strengths, weaknesses, and needs are. Every student will have a different approach in the lessons as everyone has different taste in music and different learning styles. I cater to the student's interests to make the lessons easy and interesting while making sure that the student is aware of the reason that they are understanding how the topic they are currently learning blends and builds into their overall playing and musicianship.

Teacher In Spotlight

Robert G

Instruments: Guitar Voice Ukulele Acoustic Guitar

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
Since I believe that building a relationship with my students is fundamental to my effectiveness with them, typically, I'll ask the student how they are doing, how their past week has been for them. if they have a crisis, I give them time to vent and decompress--if all is well, we'll do a brief social catch-up, we smile and get into the lesson... Structurally, my protocol after that initial socializing is: 1-- I ask if everything we discussed/practiced last week made sense... 2--If not we review the questioned items... 3--I ask "What did you take home from last lesson" 4--They demonstrate --and I assess their progress... 5-I themn move into my lesson plan, couching it in terms of whta was touched on lasrt week.... 6--We close the lesson with an assignment of how to take the skill/technique of today's lesson into actual practice at home, This typically involve me demonstrating on via a phone video camera...

If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
My Msaters in related to the field of Education

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I have the grace every weekend of being a choir director who helps choristers enjoy the delight of singing their hearts out while we as a group help feed the hearts and souls of the folks who come to the table... I have published scores of songs that have become staples of weekly Sunday services... I have over my teaching career helped hundreds of students express their joy in song and in their instruments...

Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Indeed, having taught for 30 years+, I have proudly watched many of my students become professional musicians and teachers themselves...Such is a joy indeed to see student live their passion....

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
As with any instrument, with the guitar and the voice, it is not about simple "getting eh right note.." That's eh easy part--IT's COMMUNICATING the intent and power of that note and the passage that is the true purpose of this and any art....

Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
Through my education I have been exposed to all of these approaches, and they each in their way have influenced my rather eclectic pedagogical philosophy. My first task with a student is to carefully assess where thy are, how thy learn, and what they want to learn----From there, I draw from each of thse methodologies the techniques and approaches that best meet each student's particular needs.

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I've always been a singer, so choosing an instrument that would allow me to also sing was definitely a more logical choice that tuba... My parents were not wealthy, so a $100 guitar was more realistic than a $5,000,piano, so, guitar it was!

Famous Violinists That Inspire Through History

...from the techniques and philosophy she first taught to her students.   Isaac Stern (1920 – 2001)   How do you get to Carnegie Hall? Perhaps a more important question is why is Carnegie Hall still standing? Give a nod to Isaac Stern, who in 1960 led the charge to save the famous performance venue. This famous violinist made his debut at Carnegie Hall in 1943, and he couldn’t bear to see the venue demolished. The conservation effort was successful, and musicians to this day are able to perform in the Isaac Stern Auditorium/Ronald O. Perelman Stage. Musically speaking, Stern was a prolific musician...

Reading Music for Beginners: Rhythm and The Staff

...Learning how to read music is probably pretty low on the priority list of many musicians. How can something as dull and boring as staring at weird symbols on a sheet of paper make you a more skilled musician? I used to think thoughts like this before I learned how to read music in college. Reading music for beginners might seem like a huge undertaking, but with some practice, effort, and guidance, most people begin to understand the language of music rather quickly. Speaking from a decade of music education experience, I can tell you that the difference between a student ... Read More

Does this mean that you’re now an expert on playing in 12 keys? No. This series is meant to be an introduction of sorts. It is not a comprehensive method. Remember, studying jazz is a lifelong process. I don’t have any more clever anecdotes or hypothetical situations to explain why learning to play and think comfortably in all the keys is incredibly important. Just ... Read More

The Kodály Approach – More than Hand Signs

...far I have provided a very small amount of context and given examples of the plethora of tools that Kodály inspired teachers use in the music classroom. I find it important at this juncture to emphasize that while the Kodály approach was originally developed to aid in strengthening a nation’s cultural identity through music literacy, it does not end there. Although its inception was several decades ago, in a completely different country halfway around the world, a Kodály inspired philosophy and pillars of music education are most certainly applicable to modern day music education. By building a strong foundation of ... Read More

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.
