Music Lessons in Geronimo, TX

Instruments: Violin Viola Recorder Fiddle

I have been teaching privately since 2017, and I have always enjoyed working one on one with all ages and levels of students who have a passion for music. I have helped prepare several students for various auditions including the Texas region. Last year, three of my private students auditioned well enough to make it into the region orchestra, and I was really proud that I was able to help them perform their best on their audition day!

Instruments: Drums

For my beginning trumpet students I always make sure to start them off with a solid warm up routine. I start them off with long tones which helps them to establish a great sound. Building a great trumpet sound is necessary, and happens by creating a warm up routine the student can do every day. In addition to long tones I will add in a few basic lip slurs from the Arban book to help the student learn how to keep that great sound while moving pitches. Read More

Instruments: Cello

I started taking cello lessons over the summer before 6th grade, and played in the ensemble at my middle school and high school, continuing lessons throughout. I have also participated in solo and ensemble events through the schools. I have never taught before, as it is only now something I have to start doing, but I am excited to begin teaching others. The extent of my teaching only includes helping other cellists with pieces I may have previously played, and working with a quartet on pieces that I already know. Read More

Instruments: Piano Ukulele

I have played piano since about age 4, starting lessons at 5 and studying privately for about 8-9 years before college. I did not major in music in college, but I continued to play and occasionally teach piano and guitar. After a career as a university professor, I have moved toward my love of music by playing and teaching, mainly piano but also beginning guitar. I have taught for about 10 years total, for a music business and in my home. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin Saxophone Clarinet Drums Bass Guitar Synthesizer Keyboard Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

My process is based on (but does not adhere strictly to) the Classical approach to Western tonal harmony and asks that the students develop certain fundamentals of technique and theory.  In my experience, this structure creates the strongest foundation for pupils to build the rest of their musical lives on, whether professionally or solely for personal enjoyment.  All of my students are on the fast track to studying music theory.
