Max A

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums Organ Synthesizer Recorder Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Conga Latin Percussion

I am a multi-instrumentalist, composer, producer, and improviser who is equally passionate about teaching music as I am about playing it. I graduated with a Bachelors of Music degree in Music Composition and Music Technology from the Conservatory of Music at Brooklyn College.I perform often as both a solo vocalist and technologist and with my experimental RnB group The Pluto Moons. As a soloist, my performances and recordings of my own compositions have been featured at a variety of festivals throughout the world, including the New York City Electroacoustic Music Festival, the PNEM Festival in Uden Netherlands, and the Hrlursfestival in Solleftea, Sweden.

Martin G

Instruments: Piano Guitar Keyboard Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

For beginners, I usually start with the fundamentals of the guitars and it's anatomy. I split my lessons with theory and scales/studies, and then we switch to the students desired repertoire. I like to also add duets and songs or pieces in which me and the student play together, to strengthen the confidence to play with other players. For adults, I start off with basics but move quickly to their desired songs/pieces. Read More

Kristin T

Instruments: Piano Voice

It gives you better vocal control, larger ranges, and overall finesse. Through both my teachers I also learned a lot about different techniques on piano. For most piano students I start them off with 'An All In One Beginner Piano Course' with Andrew Fling. This introduces the piano in such an interesting way and has students advancing in only a few short lessons. I also introduce scale exercises for both piano and vocal students, which strengthens their mastery of the instrument and introduces discipline and drive. Read More

Hi! I'm Zoe, a conservatory-trained classical and musical theater vocalist. I have over 10 years of experience teaching private vocal and piano lessons, working with students of all levels in classical, musical theater, and jazz styles. My teaching approach combines vocal exercises to assess progress, technique-focused repertoire, and student-selected music to keep lessons engaging and fun. I emphasize building a strong foundation in technique while fostering confidence and healthy vocal habits. Read More

Cameron E

Instruments: Piano Drums Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Conga Latin Percussion Keyboard Djembe

For beginners I usually start them off with two books, Stick Control and Funky Primer. I then pair what they learn from those with real world examples and try to incorporate that into songs that they want to play. For more intermediate students we focus more on developing their musical vocabulary and all around versatility. We go more in depth on rudiments and using them around the kit. We also start covering music industry fundamentals and the skills they need to market themselves as a musician and how to put together or find a band to start gigging with! Read More

Kate K

Instruments: Piano Voice Music

I always like to follow my students curiosities and guide them to learning foundational techniques through material they are passionate about. Cookie-cutter books and songs are not one-size-fits-all and I truly believe in an individualized lesson plan for all my students. I incorporate theory, historical knowledge, ear training, and music reading into my lessons at all ages and levels. I additionally have extensive experience in childcare and early childhood education so I am knowledgable on keeping young learners engaged and excited in lessons! Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Tim P

Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin Trumpet Drums Bass Guitar Synthesizer Ukulele Recorder Double Bass Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I have used Hal Leonard, Alfred, and more. I see what I think the student needs and I will pull pieces out of a book or exercises too. I create my own lesson plans that are geared towards success in terms of the student's goal. I do have sight reading books that the student will utilize every page. I believe this is fundamental knowledge for the student to know. I also create my own sheet music with Sibelius or Musicfirst, notation software. I also have the student compose their own piece of music and improvise. These are all skills a well-rounded musician should know how to use.

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
When I practice I play for about two to four hours. I start with scales using a metronome. I play my modes using one scale per session. I will play them in a swing style and as straight quarter notes utilizing techniques such as legato or staccato. I will sight read a few pieces without stopping, even if I make a mistake. i will sight read a technical piece a few times correcting my mistakes. I will play a jazz piece, melody first, bass line second, and solo last. I will improvise gloves with a metronome or drum machine. I will transcribe a piece of music by ear, then ear-train by singing bass lines or melodies using solfege.

If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have two music degrees. One is a performance degree and one is a music education degree. I have said this throughout my profile, I love music and I love education. I wanted to get a performance degree because I love playing music. I wanted to get a music education degree because I love teaching. To teach music means I get to play while I teach, and that is the best of both worlds. I am really passionate about teaching and education in general. I remember how excited I was to learn how to play and read music and I want to pass that feeling along.

What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I do not have a dream piece of music. As a bass player I had to learn how to play many styles of music in order to get gigs. I love playing any kind of music. I play anything from traditional celtic music, hip-hop, indie rock, jazz, and classical. For me it is all great to play. There is nothing better than picking up your instrument and know you will have fun, but also to get paid to do so. If I had to choose I love playing anything where i have freedom to create. Creating bass lines is a great thing.

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.
