Music Lessons in Diamond, OH

Instruments: Piano Voice Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Euphonium French Horn

As a teacher in public and charter schools, I have directed choruses, small chamber ensembles, orchestras, and musical theater. I started teaching music lessons during college, where I excelled as a trombonist. Although I remain a brass teacher, I "made the switch" to singing in 2005. In 2006 I was accepted to graduate school for singing and historical musicology. I have had the opportunity to perform with some of the finest conductors and ensembles in the nation, and I bring my professional experiences into the classroom and the studio. Read More

Instruments: Voice

My approach to lessons differs significantly from student to student. After initial skills and/or vocal health assessments, I choose repertoire and books for them based upon their abilities, age, and musical interests. While I think that vocalises and technical exercises are important to the learning process, I believe it is essential for students to be singing and playing music that they are passionate about at all times. In this way, they can learn to love the process of improving. Read More

Instruments: Voice

My name is Rowanne, and I have graduated in Voice - Performance from Berklee College of Music. Coming from the struggling yet revolutionary country of Lebanon, I have found healing in expression and performance. Finding my voice constituted the foundation of my artistic journey as a singer, dancer and actor.  That is why my aim in life is to help others liberate themselves and find their own voice. I love singing in various languages such as Arabic, Greek, French, English, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, as I am deeply drawn by the mixing of different genres of music from all around the world.

Instruments: Flute Recorder Piccolo

I began teaching private lessons 6 years ago during my studies of a undergraduate. While living in Tennessee I maintained a studio of many students ranging from age 8 to age 50. I believe that lessons are about what the students want to know and I am very willing to give them what they want. I encourage students to work towards competitions, recitals, and their own projects.

Instruments: Drums Latin Percussion

My method varies for each student since every student will learn differently. I start by assessing where a student is at in terms of skill level and what their intentions are for learning how to play drums/percussion. For younger students, I'll start with getting their coordination together so they can begin to play and be involved in the learning process. After that, I'll begin to teach fundamentals and stylistic things to get them going. Read More

I like to tailor my approach to make music FUN for my students. I don't want them to ever think practice is a chore. My students don't "work" their insturments, they "play" them. Read More

Instruments: Voice Music

My teaching experience dates back to my college days in Italy, as I began teaching private lessons part time 6 years ago, and have been consistently teaching students in my home studio for the last 4 years. Although I come from the classical environment, I've found that a combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy the singing and motivate them to practice and continue to learn.
