Diane L

Instruments: Voice

I have taught beginners to headline concert singers and work with each student individually. What works for one will not necessarily work for all. Each singer has issues and insecurities unique to the individual. I clear out the blocks with simple techniques that a kindergarten child could understand, yet the techniques work at even the mastery level. Great singing is surprisingly easy once you understand the psychology of singing and apply effective training habits that reinforce the inner workings of the singer's experience which manifests the outward.

Michael M

Instruments: Drums Conga Djembe

As previously mentioned, i do believe in the saying that the best you can do is good enough. I expect students to practice equal to the amount they wish to improve. How quickly or slowly someone grows on their instrument is often a simple result of time spent working. But making music is incredibly fun and i make every effort to keep the time spent doing the study fun.  For the drums i tend to buy into the philosophy that playing a first complete rhythm on the drumset as soon as possible, regardless of how basic it may be is important for keeping a student motivated.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Bass Guitar Latin Percussion Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I began teaching at the age of 19 and within one year ended up teaching over 70 drummers weekly at four different locations in which I managed 2 of them. I then went on to open my own studio in 2007 to great success. Recently, desiring more musical adventures, I've decided to relocate to Las Vegas in search of more music opportunities in The Music Business. I have taught thousands of drummers and guitar players over the year and am looking forward to teaching thousands more! Read More

Alison K

Instruments: Guitar Voice Trombone Flute Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I like to see students getting excited about learning new concepts in music. I also like to see music becoming a part of their lives and learning. I enjoy passing on what I've been given. I like to see music becoming a part of students lives and being an enjoyable experience for years to come. One area I specialize in is helping students with their band or ensemble music and giving them the extra help they may need to excel in their band or choir classes in school.

Tony P

Instruments: Piano Voice

I approach teaching on a person to person level by getting to know and understand what is required of me. I create a program exclusively for each student that fits their comfort zone. I enjoy doing the videos they make for me to critique. So with the use of video sharing there is documentation so the student can refer back to them in the future. Teaching online is different than teaching person to person. Read More

William M

Instruments: Piano Trumpet Recorder French Horn Oboe Keyboard

For beginning students, I prefer to use the Bastien piano method. This serious comes in 4 levels and is very thorough The Bastien series offers numerous books for each level in addition to the lesson book. Each level comes with a recital book, a arepertoire book, and a theory book for students to write in. The solo repertoire book is exciting because it showcases the child's ability to interpret concepts learned in the lesson book. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Sal M

Instruments: Trombone

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
During my college years we did a tribute to Miles Davis. I arranged a big band chart of the Davis tune "Joshua" and was a featured soloist on NPR during our live telecast.

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing to master on a trombone is the ability to improvise. It involves music theory, dexterity, scale knowledge, and flexibility.

Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
Arban, Rochut, and Mueller. These books provide different challenges, technical studies, and studies. I like how they all accomplish technical and musical aspects that help a student become more confident in their instrument.

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
30-45 minute warm up (long tones, legato lounging, lip slurs, couple lounging, scale studies) Five minute break 30-45 minutes of transcriptions Short break 20 minutes of technical studies, solos, or exerts I try to repeat this later in the day if I am lucky.

If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
Bachelor's in Jazz Studies, covering performance and composition.

What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I would love to play all of Louis Armstrong's solos. His musicality and style are so personal yet so worldly.

What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I love soul music. It is fun, yet still offers great challenges and some great musicality. Also, it makes fantastic music to jam, or sit in on with a band.

If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I started teaching myself piano in college to further understand chord structure and theory. I also taught myself some trumpet so I can double and offer more services. I am currently learning guitar.

Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Music does not run in my family, but both my brother and I became professional musicians in spite of this. We both studied music at our universities, and have been playing professionally for over 20 years. He later became the guitarist for my band, and is currently working with some country artists in Nashville.

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I chose trombone after seeing James Brown on tv, and falling in love with his horn section. The trombone looked like the most fun!

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
The easy answer is if they enjoy their instrument and music. It's never too early to start if they are excited.

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
In high school. It looked fun, challenging, and something that I could do all over the world. Since then I have performed on four continents, on cruise ships, and with ensembles ranging from shortness to orchestras to jazz combos to gospel bands.

When will I start to see results?
A beginning student can see results quickly. As time goes on, results will still happen but will come in smaller increments. This is when practice and dedication can excel a student. At the end of the day, it is really a matter of how much and willing the student is to practice.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Develop a warm up. Play long tones every day, and make them long. Then work on scales, and finally lip slurs. You can add to this over time, but a warm up is the most consistent thing that should be done.
