Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums Bass Guitar Synthesizer Ukulele Keyboard Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I started teaching when i started college. I was first a substitute teacher. From then, I slowly built up my student database. I have worked for many music schools and have always had a packed schedule. I make sure the student feels at home and comfortable when taking lessons. I believe music education is important these days. Many schools are taking away their music programs. When teaching, I am confident in my skills for keeping the student interested, learning, and happy. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums Keyboard

I teach because I love imparting knowledge and making connections in this way, and because I love the fundamental building blocks of musicianship and music theory. I have found that with careful attention to a student's character, the possibilities for learning are boundless. I like to let love guide the process, in the sense that I observe carefully the kinds of sounds that a student is fond of, and attempt to structure their learning in a way that empowers them to make those sounds.

Learning to play an instrument is a skill that can last a lifetime. The benefits of perseverance, resilience, and positive self-esteem are also powerful forces in a student's development. With that in mind, I create a safe where students feel comfortable working to improve their musicianship. By acknowledging progress, students are excited to push themselves to accomplish their goals in music! By taking this student-centered approach, my students are excited to grow on their instrument.

I have been teaching drums and music for over 10 years now, and I have truly fallen in love with it. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing a student progress and achieve their goals on the drum set or in their musical pursuits. I approach each lesson with a balance of structure and flexibility, tailoring the lesson plan to the individual needs and goals of the student. I believe in building a foundation grounded in technique and relaxation, while also encouraging creativity and self-expression. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I love the John Thompson series for young children beginning their study of music. For 3 and 4 year olds, I start out with John Thompson's Easiest Piano Book. We also work on keyboard orientation, understanding and mastery of the musical alphabet, note values, and rhythm. I've found for very young children, drawing notes with crayons, clapping, singing, keep lessons fun and engaging. My 5 and 6 year old students respond well to Thompsons's Teaching Little Fingers to Play. Read More

My teaching experience dates back to my highschool days in Paris where I started teaching three students once a week each to make some extra pocket money. I always travel to my student's homes and also have experience with online tutoring. I am used to teaching in both French and English as I use to cater to the international community of Paris as both a music and a language tutor. Read More
