Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin Cello Viola Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet Drums Bass Guitar Organ Synthesizer Harp Accordion Harmonica Lap Steel Guitar Banjo Ukulele Mandolin Recorder Lute Electric Violin Fiddle Double Bass Euphonium French Horn Tuba Piccolo Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Shakuhachi Oboe Bassoon English Horn Conga Latin Percussion Keyboard Electric Guitar Djembe Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

For beginning students who are children, I typically start with Hal Leonards Essential Elements book, as well a basic understanding of music. Once the student has progressed to have a nice grasp of the fundamentals of music, I usually begin to introduce solo repertoire appropriate for their first recital performance. I also believe in the importance of listening to as many professional recordings as possible of the instrument the student is taking lessons on. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Synthesizer Ukulele Music Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

At the later stages of the beginner course, students will dive into complex chords, power chords, barre chords, and playing with a capo as well as learning when and how to transpose songs of various musical keys using a capo. For intermediate to advanced students, I will teach them how to play more melodically as well as improve their finger dexterity. Students will learn how to play in alternate tunings as well as solos and single note lines/riffs in addition to exploring the guitar fret board in its entirety via the CAGED system and chord inversions/triads.

Teacher In Spotlight

Camellia F

Instruments: Voice

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I chose voice as my primary instrument because I feel most alive when I am singing. I love playing my other instruments, but it doesn't feel as natural as when I am singing. I don't get nervous or concentrate as heavily as I do when I'm playing the other instruments. I love being able to express myself through voice when words fail. Everyone loves a beautiful song, and it's also something that everyone can relate to when they hear it. I feel free and like there are no problems in the world when I am singing.

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I'm most proud that I have continued my journey from elementary school all the way to now and learned new types of music along the way. I never restricted myself to one type of music, and was willing to listen to advice that anyone had to give me. It has changed over the years, but it still holds true that I love singing the best. I'm also proud of the various shows I have been a part of, and the experiences I've gained through that. Performing at Lincoln Center and The Kennedy Center was also a great accomplishment.

Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
My father was a rock musician who sang and played guitar in various bands around my home town and also wrote his own music and recorded solo records. My uncle also performed with him and plays several instruments, including mandolin, guitar, violin, and sings. My twin cousins play several instruments including banjo, guitar, bass, drums, mandolin, and violin and sing as well. They have sang in various bands around our hometown as well. I'm very lucky to come from a musical family, as I think it has helped shaped my experiences in music.

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I decided to become a professional musician when I couldn't think of anything else I would rather be doing. I couldn't see myself stuck in an office all day, and I needed to be doing something creative. I never wanted to have a job that I didn't like, because life is too short to be unhappy with what you're doing every day. Nothing makes me happier than passing on my gift of music to others, and this way I am also improving my own technique by teaching someone else. It is a rewarding job that is fun!

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.
