Daniel S

Instruments: Piano Violin Keyboard

I am somewhat flexible on books and methods, but unless my students have already invested time and money in a particular published method, I start them on the Bastien series, which is not too expensive and is well designed and effective. As they progress to intermediate, they will be expected to buy some classical music, collections, and technique books. In addition, I will write out some exercises and guiding information and instructions to assist them in their practice and approach to style and technique. Read More

Jordan D

Instruments: Piano Voice

I, above all, want students to develop their own love and appreciation for music. I have high expectations in y studio, but I make it clear that students will progress at different speeds and that’s okay. Every week I give a set of warm-ups and exercises to focus on and expect students to practice so we can hone them when we’re together, but I’ll never ask a student to do something they’re not comfortable or familiar with - if ever there’s a question I’m there to answer or demonstrate.

Carlie W

Instruments: Piano

I'm currently attending school and majoring in both Piano Pedagogy and French Education. I love to play the piano and sharing my talents with other people. I have had many opportunities to perform in front of people. I love working with students and helping them to improve their musical abilities. My greatest achievements come from seeing the joy that piano can bring into students' lives. My goal every lesson is to get a smile from my students' faces. Read More

Darcy R

Instruments: Piano Organ Keyboard

I like playing games and playing through music with the student. I have flash cards, sometimes we play concentration, war, find it on the keyboard, spoons, relay races. We use gross motor skills, with big floor keyboard, dance, etc. Sometimes we do note speller things, technique learning from books. Sometimes I record them so they can see their own progress. We adjust, we just have fun.When they start spelling words with note names and are able to write and find them on the keyboard and on the staff, then we begin composing our own music. Read More

Christy G

Instruments: Piano Guitar Flute

For guitar- I studied under Mike Christensen at Utah States University. I use his guitar books that he has written. For piano- I use Alfred''s piano books. They are very well written and are geared for success! For flute- I start with Suzuki and then the sky is the limit! I like playing music theory games with kids. It is more enjoyable to learn this when it is a game. Read More

Hannah N

Instruments: Piano

I am passionate and highly motivated about music and teaching music. I have been studying piano for over 10 years now. I graduated from Weber State University (WSU) with a Bachelor's of Music in Keyboard Pedagogy. I have performed many times in solo and ensemble works in different settings during my education. I had the opportunity to perform a Bach Concerto for Two harpsichords with WSU's orchestra. I have always loved making music and sharing it with others. Read More

Valerie E

Instruments: Piano

I have been playing the piano since I was 7 years old. That's been 45 (yes) I said (45) years ago! I'm old. I'm married and have four adult children. I have a crazy cat named Lady. She rolls around like a dog. I love to crochet, knit and machine embroider and other hand crafts in my free time. I love to read. At this point in time Brandon Sanderson is my favorite author.

Teacher In Spotlight

Arlette C

Instruments: Cello Music

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 a Masters Degree in Cello performance and a Bachelor's Degree in Cello Performance. Both these degrees focused on the study of playing the advanced-professional cello. I picked the cello out when I was 10 and ever since then, I never looked back because this is the instrument for me.

What is your dream piece to perform and why?
There is a beautiful piece composed Ernest Bloch entitled "The Prayer", absolutely beautiful. This piece is gorgeous on the cello and after learning it several years ago, I would love to perform it at some time. I might have an opportunity to play this piece this year. This piece depicts the calm and quietness of the Jewish people. He wrote this piece for Hans Kindler, with the intent to capture the Jewish spirit and soul.

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
Assuming this question is truly about practicing and not a lesson. Then practicing should involve slow and thorough practicing by reading the correct notes, knowing which finger needs to be associated with the note. This should be done every day in order to learn each note. then on the 3rd day playing the entire piece. At this point, if you have some errors, isolate what is the problem, fix that problem after 5 times. Then back up one measure and try playing two measures together. If your problem is fixed then you practiced correctly. After this point, start from the beginning and your problem should have been resolved.

Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
Yes I use String Builder by Applebaum. This book is very helpful because it is a step by step method, that way there is a logical order in which the student learns. There are other books such as Alfred, Hal Leonard, or Suzuki, but I am very happy with the String Builder.

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
I think the technique of learning how to vibrato is the toughest part of the learning process. It requires a lot of patience and due diligence of practicing. The process is slow and ugly sounding, but if done right it sounds great.

Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I have two high school students who have won scholarships from Music Teachers Association where each received $300 towards private lessons. These same students are now in their 1st year of college and continue to play at the community level. In addition, one of my students played a solo piece with my orchestra 2 years ago when she was only 15.

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.
