Tim G

Instruments: Guitar Drums

I am enthusiastic about teaching others both how to play and understand the art of music. In 2009 I graduated from North Central University where I truly fell in live with music and gained a passion for learning and performing through both my education and the rich Fine Arts culture in the city of Minneapolis where I studied. Since graduating, performing professionally has been a wonderful experience and tantamount to my ongoing growth as a musician. Read More

Cassie D

Instruments: Voice

I began teaching back in 2013. I assisted in music direction for numerous musicals as well as teaching private voice. I have continued teaching private voice, in both my home and the student's home as well as online, since then after finding such a joy in individual teaching! I really try to emphasize the fun in music. I feel it is important for the student to enjoy what they are learning. Read More

Ashley T

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet

I started teaching in 2009 in Mississippi. I taught 6th grade band (beginner), 7th grade band, and high school. I taught in Mississippi for 5 years and just recently moved to Tennessee. While teaching, I've given private lessons to some of my students after school and to some students who did not attend my school. I always encourage doing a recital, entering competitions, and continuing on to college playing their instrument. I love motivating students and challenging them to be the best and nothing less.

Alicia F

Instruments: Saxophone Clarinet

Hello All! I am a woodwind instructor, specifically clarinet and alto saxophone, with over 15 years of musical experience. I began my interest in music through band in school, and my love for it grew as I developed as a musician. I then began transposing music, composing music, and began to learn the keyboard as well. I have studied musical history, performed in group and individual settings, and am currently developing unique musical concepts to make the learning experience for my students as enjoyable as possible.

Holden B

Instruments: Cello

As a teacher, my goal is to equip students with the tools they need to succeed at their personal goals, encourage students to become dedicated thinkers and learners, and also to foster a loving relationship with music and social consciousness. I generally focus on teaching students how to practice and problem-solve, and set goals for themselves. Throughout the learning process, I believe it is important to practice and study music in an empowering way, so I want to learn about my students in order to help them practice music in an empowering way that intersects with their lives and understanding of the world around them.

Teacher In Spotlight

Daniel E

Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I, like many other kids my age dreamed of being a rockstar but something more than the looks and swagger of the guitar drew me to it. It is a very personal instrument. I loved the idea that I could take it anywhere with me, unlike a giant piano! I could play it soft or I could wail away on it as loud as I wanted. It is an instrument that can accompany others or shine on its own and is quite limitless. But, back to the rockstar ideal, all of my favorite musicians were guitar players. From Stevie Ray Vaughn and Buddy Guy to Segovia and Villa Lobos.

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I was very fortunate to be able to start taking lessons when I first picked up my instrument and continue taking those lessons up until I left for college. I had the same teacher from 14 years old to 19 which is when I went to college. He was and still is a phenomenal teacher! He encouraged me to learn many styles and incorporated music theory into my lessons as well which I find can be somewhat lost when learning the guitar. When I got to college I had the honor of studying with one of Canada's most renowned classical guitarists whom, while very hard on me, was very inspiring! Those two have made me the player and the teacher I am today!

When will I start to see results?
I get this question all the time. If you are a beginner just picking up your instrument for the first time and you are practicing efficiently you should see results fairly quickly. However, this question completely depends on how much time is being spend practicing. As a beginning guitar player I had to start out practicing in short segments in order for my fingers to get in shape and stop hurting. Once the calluses on my fingers got stronger I was able to practice for longer periods of time and began to notice results faster. The more you practice, as long as it is done efficiently, the more results you will see.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Always start with a warm up! I can't tell you how many times as a young kid I ignored that advice! Thankfully I smartened up and always warm up now. It is also very, very important to make sure you practice at least a short time each and every day versus trying to practice for one long session at the end of a long week. I also encourage to take whatever you may be working on, whether it be from your lesson or a separate piece of work, that you break it up into small sections. If what your working on is something like an ABA format, then focus on A before moving onto B rather than playing through the whole thing start to finish over, and over and over again, like so many of us like to do.

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.
