Music Lessons in Canal Winchester, OH

Instruments: Guitar Music Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

My teaching style is flexible and is contingent upon the wants and needs of the particular student.. in a nutshell my aim is to cultivate enjoyment for the art and not stifle a student with some stuffy old concepts or ideals however.... It cannot be disputed that the best art is objective and requires a distinct and focused approach..Music is of the highest order in the realm of arts and should be treated with respect and devotion; deviating from this credo produces inferior results ..I also believe that is it's important to explain to a pupil why it is suggest they do something a certain way.

Instruments: Piano Guitar

I have been teaching professionally since graduating from Capital University in 2009, and have had the pleasure of teaching individuals of all ages and interests. I've developed a lesson plan centered around building a complete musician, not just a guitarist. Integral to that plan is the development of reading, writing, and improvisational skills. I also like to focus on each students' own musical interests, studying music that they're interested in, as well as what I think is important for everyone to learn. Read More

I teach through positive reinforcement and encouragement with a set structure that allows for discipline and certain benchmarks that can determine success and mastery of certain skills. I truly believe that when students are nurtured and given a comfortable space they will excel as creating music and art is vulnerable and requires the student to let go. This cannot happen unless the teacher facilitates an environment and space for organic innovation by the student. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice

Bastien Books are my favorite piano books to teach out of. But, Others are good as well. (Piano adventures, Alfred, Faber and Faber, ect) For piano we always do Theory , Technic, and go through a song book which will take you gradually through the levels and correspond the Theory and technique lessons. For Voice, We focus on Breathing, Warmups and I teach in the style that suits the student. Each student has their individual track. Read More

Instruments: Trumpet

I have been teaching trumpet and conducting on and off since graduating from high school. I have also taught marching technique and drum major conducting in my summers between school. My teaching style reflects methods that did and did not work on me as I grew up learning the trumpet. Regular practice times and a variety of learning material help to keep lessons fresh and dynamic and allow me to assign new materials faster. Read More
