These practices immediately result in visible positive changes. In the learning process, defining the goals is crucial. Depending on a particular case of the student, I proof-check the competition or audition demos, find people who could help my students’ aspirations. I make sure to articulate my critique in the most constructive way possible and to listen. I am convinced that to educate an individual efficiently, one needs to understand the student’s background, psychological profile, temperament, and character. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Trumpet
A Texas native, Clynt grew up exposed to a variety of music. The southern influence of blues, gospel, country, and jazz were a huge part of his musical upbringing. While his formal training was largely in classical music for many years, he also remembers learning his first tunes note-by-not from his father (a jazz and country musician) in their living room in Texas when he was not out of elementary school. Having experienced both formal and informal training methods all of his life, he is adept at providing either - or any ratio - of the two to a student in need. Read More

My teaching experience dates back to my high school days, as I began teaching private lessons part-time 7 years ago, and have been consistently tutoring students in Boston for the last 3 years. Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I like to emphasize for younger students, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument. I 've also found that a combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy the piano and motivate them to practice and continue to learn. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I started playing when I was 7 and just really haven't stopped. I have always enjoyed playing the piano and also teaching the piano. As a performer I have played in a wide variety of styles and ensembles from giving Solo Recitals to Rock Bands, and playing in Big Bands to Musical Theater Orchestras. After earning my Masters degree in Piano Performance I taught for several years and then began to perform on Cruise ships as the MD of the show band for the next 6.5 years. Read More

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing than of my students develop a passion for music! There forests important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments help fuel a student desire to progress and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs Read More

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.
