Music Lessons in Nicholasville, KY

Instruments: Saxophone

I believe students will perform how teachers educate them, and I also believe in developing ones own style. Students need to understand how to get to a certain level due to practice and patience. Discipline and a positive mindset will help achieve goals. I believe advising students on how to focus and practice is the key to potential. Read More

Hi! I'm Maeve. I am a professional soprano with 13 years of instruction and 4 years of paid experience as a performer under my belt. Since 2011, I have attended voice programs at Interlochen Center for the Arts, Brevard Music Center, and VOICExperience, and I regularly work in churches and sing weddings. I recently graduated from the University of Kentucky, where I studied with Dr. Dennis Bender. Dr. Bender's students have studied at Juilliard, won the Metropolitan Opera Laffont Competition, and sung with Houston Grand Opera - these are just a few of many success stories. Read More

My teaching style is very organic and personal. Because I feel music is more of an expression before it is a discipline, I am a strong believer in giving tools of discipline as they are needed, rather than forcing a student into a rigor just because it worked for a different student with a different personality. We are all so very unique in our expressions as human musicians that even the same note on the same instrument played by different fingers can change the tone and resonance of the note. Read More

My method of teaching is very detailed instruction. There are many books that tend to start with the assumption that you know something about music or that music is easy to just "pick up." I like to start from the students' most basic skill level and fill in all the gaps as they progress. This means that starting out might be a bit slow, but the learning curve for future lessons is shortened and students eventually end up further ahead than if they skipped around. Read More

I can play anything you hear on the radio. I can not only teach you how to play the bass guitar, I can also teach you about recording, song structure, history of the instrument, and repairs and maintenance / care of your instrument.

Instruments: Piano

I began teaching piano my sophomore year of college. During my college career, I built up a studio of nearly 20 students, tutored college-level piano courses, and worked as a Teacher's Assistant in Sight Singing and Aural Training. Since then, I taught for two years at a Summer Music Conservatory in Texas, led week-long keyboard intensive seminars throughout Western Kenya, and most recently, taught at the nation's largest piano conservatory. I believe that lessons should be fun, fast-paced, and stimulate the whole child through a wide variety of songs and genres. Read More

However, for those that are a little more outgoing, I first assess what level their at, and begin from there. For beginner students, I am a firm believe in mastering fundamentals but making them fun at the same time. There's no need for fundamentals to be monotonous and boring! For more experienced students, I like to find out what their goal is and create a development plan for them according to their individual goals. Read More
