Music Lessons in El Mirage, AZ

Instruments: Oboe English Horn

Every person is different. Therefore, it is safe to say that everyone's learning style is different as well. As your teacher, it is my job to discover how you best learn and respond to the material I assign. I make each student an individual plan that will help them succeed. I want my students to have fun, too... after all, that's what music is all about! I like to play duets with my students and teach them basic reed- making tips, something they will need to know if they continue with oboe. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice

For piano students who have already been playing and/or taking lessons, I usually start from where they left off with their former teacher. I then gently guide them to the Faber books or continue using the series they're comfortable with, depending on the needs of the student. I find that consistency helps encourage the student, giving them confidence that they can be successful. For my voice students, I usually start them with proper breathing techniques. Read More

Hello, thank you for viewing my profile. I see myself as a lifelong student and believe knowledge and skills should be nurtured and passed on and get a great sense of accomplishment from teaching.

Prior to that I was a self-taught electric player playing at local churches and playing with local bands before beginning a formal education. Read More

Instruments: Piano Violin

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace with the encouragement of the teacher to encourage their musical goals with a consistent desire to progress. No two teachers teach in the same way, just as no two students will learn in the same way. A teachers style is based on their educational philosophy. Read More

All children are different and are progressing at their own pace.Most important for me is to see that they enjoy making music at any level. Another important thing for me is to remind my students to practice with a good posture and poise.This will ensure that they look as a performers and enables them to practice and perform for much longer periods of time. I teach my students to be creative during their lessons and home practice,this makes practicing fun and study of music enjoyable and rewarding. Read More

Instruments: Trombone Euphonium Music

My methods are fairly simple. No matter the age or experience level, fundamentals are key. This includes proper embouchure, good posture, effective warm ups, and a consistent practice routine. Once the fundamentals are secure, especially for younger students, I like to move on to more "fun" music, such as Rochut etudes or beginner level solo music. Besides fundamentals I believe the most important element in playing brass instruments successfully is confidence. Read More
