Aaron D

Instruments: Guitar Voice

I do this because I love music, and I love helping others love music. So, while I do want the students to be very proficient musicians, I am mostly concerned in helping cultivate the student's passion for music. After all, if the student doesn't love the music, it's not near as urgent to practice and produce results. The love of the music is what drives the practice. Also, while I have general curriculums designed to guide the student's educational journey, I know that all students learn at different paces. Read More

Stephen K

Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar

I started giving guitar lessons before I left to go to music school and continued to do so while I was in school and afterwards as well. It's always been for the love of sharing music with others and now I'm feeling called to do it full time. I have taught students from the age of 5 to folks in Their 50's. It's never too late to start learning an instrument. Read More

James K

Instruments: Guitar

I feel rewarded when I see my students develop a passion for music. I set goals with each student getting to know their style preferences, musical tastes and acknowledge their progress throughout the learning. My students will learn to reach their goals and become successful performance artists and musicians. With persistence and hard work they will be rewarded in many ways and will feel confident knowing the language of music and be able to perform for any audience. Read More

John M

Instruments: Guitar Ukulele Acoustic Guitar

I love to challenge and test my students so don't be surprised if I take you out of your comfort zone for a minute or two. This is done to see how far you've come along with my teaching so far. I understand that different people learn at different paces and I will always do everything I can to get you to master your instrument at any speed. I always do my best to introduce students to new ideas so that they are more likely to think creatively. Read More

Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar Synthesizer Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I am a father of two young daughters who share my passion for all types of music (so far). I've had many credits on several studio albums ranging from hip hop to country, and most genres in between. I believe that with discipline and perseverance, virtually anything is achievable. I am extremely motivated, very optimistic, and I absolutely love being in leadership roles. It is because of this affinity for leadership that teaching is something that I love to do. Read More

Daniel A

Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

Hi! My name is Daniel and I have been teaching guitar for over 15 years. I started playing the guitar at a young age. I learned mainly by ear from the first year or two, and asked anyone I met who played to teach me anything they could. Once I knew the basic chords and could play a few songs, I began taking professional lessons. My teacher taught me how to develop my ear properly so I could learn what I wanted without any help.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Build it into a routine or schedule. (For example, always practice for the first thirty minutes following supper). Set a timer, don't look at the clock, and read the notes left by the teacher. I always give students a list of what I'm expecting them to practice, and part of the lesson is that I teach them how to practice what I've assigned.

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Definitely a history teacher! History is my second love, and actually studying it is not that much different than studying musical styles. Both music and art reflect history almost more than a written record does! The world is full of rich cultures that I love to study, especially through music.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
There is usually one of two reasons a student begins lessons, and each have a different answer. First, a child wants to learn. Sometimes kids say they really want to learn an instrument, but don't understand the effort and diligence that it takes. While music is a gateway to train a child in effort, diligence, patience, and self-discipline, it's helpful if you notice these qualities in your child in every day instances before they begin. If a child has proven that he is willing to put work in for other things, chances are if he's wanting to learn an instrument, he'll put in the work in that area as well. Also, long-term interest is more likely to result in long-term commitment. How long have they been asking for lessons? A couple of weeks, a couple of months, or on and off for years? These answers can help determine how ready your child is. Second, a parent is looking to expose their child to music education. In this case, it's likely that the initial desire to play the instrument is not had by the child, although they quite possibly are open to learning and often do eventually enjoy it. Because a main ingredient of success is motivation, the same qualities from the first reason above can be good indicators that your child is ready to add this commitment to their life. However, if your child has yet to learn diligence and self-control, especially while sitting for long periods of time (such as the length of a lesson or practice session), I would suggest that you introduce them to this quality first before putting them in lessons. A child that has to learn to sit still at a piano bench, in addition to all the skills the teacher is trying to introduce, is more distracted, and therefore will stay at a beginner's level longer to compensate.

When will I start to see results?
It all depends on the student, the instrument, and what you consider to be "results". If you consider a short melody played on the piano to be a result, the student will begin to learn these little "songs" by the second week of lessons. For violin students, you may not hear melodies that resemble recognizable songs for several weeks, although many notes and exercises are learned weekly.

Chord Extensions

...constructed by adding a minor third and a tritone above the root note. A C diminished chord is C-E-Gb.   Just a reminder, basic chords, or triads, are built using three notes that skip every other note name. A C minor chord will always be C-Eb-G and never C-D#-G, because it’s easier for readers and performers to think of notes as thirds.   Extended chords   There are many extended chords in music, so we’re strictly covering the most basic ones for this article. Again, all of the chord examples here are in C, so adapt what you learn here to other keys when you’re ready. Major 7th chords: Major... Read More

Across the Universe Chords for Guitar

...“Across The Universe” was released on The Beatles’ album “Let It Be” in 1970. This masterpiece finds The Beatles at their very best, and it manages to showcase a spiritual and almost otherworldly quality. We’re going to show you how to play the Across The Universe chords on guitar with this blog and an instructional video. To make things easier, I’m teaching this song in standard guitar tuning, but the recorded version features the acoustic guitar tuned down a half step.   Intro   Featuring one of the best instrumental song introductions in all of pop music, this intro is perfect for helping beginner guitar students to get familiar with the upper registers of the guitar. I recommend playing this intro as slowly as possible, even though it’s played very quickly during the actual song. Verses   After ... Read More

Jazz Scales: The Blues Scale

...a video of a young saxophone player performing a solo rendition of “Giant Steps” on a beach boardwalk somewhere. We had to check out this young musician playing some of the most complex jazz changes. In the video, the young musician plays the head to “Giant Steps” and then proceeds to improvise using the Bb blues scale. Pretty entertaining to watch, but also kind of disheartening in a way. By the way, if anyone happens to find this video, please send it to me. I haven’t been able to find it since I first watched it eight or so years ago.   Scale ... Read More

How To Choose A Guitar Teacher

...style. It would be hard to find a musician who was an expert in every style of playing, but he or she should know the basics for every type of musical genre. 4.) Sheet music or Ear training? – a good guitar teacher should be able to use either sheet music or tablature. Also, the recent popularity of the Suzuki method, which focuses on ear training rather than sight reading, has led some to believe that being able to read music isn’t necessary. This is simply not true, being able to read music is crucial, with ear training being a close second. ... Read More

This is your first concert in New York but you’ve been performing all over the world. What was one of your favorite concert experiences so far?

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.
