Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar

I love to see students learn something and progress as the make music. Therefore, it is my goal that my student progresses at their own pace. I encourage the students to set goals for themselves and help them achieve them. Commendation is given as the student progresses and this encourages the student to dive deeper into his playing. Also, I try to see what the student is interested in, where her it be rock, alternative, blues, classical, or even jazz. Read More

Instruments: Guitar Drums Bass Guitar Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

When I begin with any student, I like to ask what they love, what they wish, and what they'd like to do during their lessons. Depending on the answer, I may start the student with tape on the fretboard, under the strings, outlining the chords for a guitar player. Or I may start with a book outlining the fundamentals of music and focus on sight reading. I like to have the lesson be a mix of what the students want, and what I believe to be useful information.

My beliefs are very clear in regards to learning and the dissemination of information “ It is impossible to learn effectively in a bubble” learning requires interaction with all forms of life and keeping an open mind. As a teacher I also believe that “in order to teach you must be a student of and for life,” This belief has allowed me to be a good listener and a practitioner of setting new goals and creating new paths with my students  regardless of their particular backgrounds, disabilities, cultures or religions.

I'm a compassionate and enthusiastic instructor who has a love for creating listening to a diverse collection of music and passing this love of music onto my students. Since 2002, I've taken piano, vocal, songwriting music theory lessons at Twin Town Guitars and in my youth performed in youth music camps, jazz bands at St. Louis Park Senior High and various piano recitals. In 2018, I graduated from University of California, Santa Cruz with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a minor in Electronic Music. Read More

Instruments: Guitar Drums Bass Guitar Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

Despite my young age, I've had extensive experience in Early Childhood Education as well as one-on-one music lessons. I gave my first lesson as a high school graduate to a neighbor who wanted to learn drums and start a band. I was able to provide a technical foundation for him to feel comfortable playing with others. In no time I was working with his band on learning songs to play at a school performance. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin

I like to start by teaching all of the students music theory before we play any instruments. In the real world, you cannot read a book properly if you do not know the "ABC's". I strongly believe the same goes with music. Once we learn the fundamentals of music theory, learning songs, and other instruments will become a lot easier. Once we have the music theory settled down, we will play books. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Robert B

Instruments: Guitar Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
It was always a goal of mine to improve and become a professional musician in the genre. Overtime I noticed my playing abilities became greater and greater over the years and I soon as I knew it I was already improving to the next level in a short amount of time this proved to me that it was what I needed to do in life. I can’t say there was a specific defining moment because music is a lifetime journey but if I had to say there was a specific moment It would definitely be receiving my first guitar when I was 12 years old that they change my life. I was filled with so much joy and happiness something that I can always say was huge for me.

Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
I can definitely say music has ran in my family over the years. My mother was a great singer when I was a kid and I could deathly say that rubbed off on me with playing guitar. Music was always played in my house it was a huge part of the family so I can say I definitely come from a musical family. Music is an expression which I feel can hold a family together and build a strong infrastructure. My family always have supported my musical talents and abilities and I’ve always push me to further it I am thankful for their support and being passionate towards music!

If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I’ve deafly only stuck with one instrument because I believe if you really have a passion for that one estimate you’ll stick with that only to achieve complete greatness. I have dabbled around with bass and piano in my younger years taking classes in it and learning theory behind those but definitely guitar has only been my first and my one true love. I could never betray playing guitar for another instrument because it’s my favorite instrument to play and has always been since I was a young man and I think my parents for that support.

What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Jazz guitar is definitely a huge influence of mine and one of my favorite styles to play it’s definitely something that requires a great deal of knowledge and preciseness behind this playing. I just love the sounds that creates and it’s definitely something I want to further my abilities in every day it’s pushing me to take it to the next level and really master the genre. Overtime when I’m older I deafly want to have a larger influence in this genre as long as I keep up my playing I deafly will be able to master it over the years.

What is your dream piece to perform and why?
My dream is to perform all 24 of Paganini’s Caprices clean and thoroughly. His pieces are so rigorous and tedious and technical that it would definitely require a great amount of skill to complete them all simultaneously and clean. I know one day I will be able to achieve this and it’s definitely a huge dream of mine because I love his pieces and the way they sound they are definitely beautiful instrumental pieces to practice. I myself as a musician work on these pieces daily in hopes of finally achieving them I know one day I will!

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
If I wasn’t a musician I definitely would be a teacher in some other form of art because of course music is an artform. I definitely get up the filming from teaching so it’s something that I would be doing regardless whether it was guitar not. There’s no better feeling than teaching someone in seeing them improve with whatever they do it’s such a huge for filming in life I can’t describe the feeling I get from teaching it’s like military experience I wouldn’t be doing anything else instead because it’s my passion!

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.
