Maryssa M

Instruments: Voice

Hi! I am so excited to get started here with Musika and to start working with students who are just as passionate and love music as much as I do. I just graduated with my Associates of Arts in Music from Lone Star Community College but have had a lot of experience with experienced voice teachers who have actually performed all over the world. I've had the opportunity to join in singing with Houston Chamber Choir throughout this last year, and singing with the Houston Cecilia Chamber Choir. Read More

Stephanie B

Instruments: Violin Cello Viola Double Bass

I found myself wanting to teach students, of all ages- anyone that had a desire to learn the cello. With regard to my private studio, I teach using the traditional method. I believe every student needs a foundation of classical music. If a student wishes to learn other genres, I am happy to support those interests as well. I teach music primarily through reading. I incorporate some ear training. I also teach music theory and music history within a given lesson, because it is my believe that theory and history assist students in having a greater understanding of why they are performing what they are and how to interpret the work.

Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone Drums Organ Harmonica Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Latin Percussion Music Keyboard Djembe

I begin with a meeting. A meeting about you...How you are doing this fine day. We will make GREAT MUSIC together and learn more about music and the world's vibrations together. I want you to tell me what it is you want me to teach you, and in the process I will learn how you learn. You teach me while I teach you; then the music will flow from ALL DIRECTIONS! =) My philosophy is a simple one. "If you put the work in you will improve." We will go at the pace that you desire and what you show me you are prepared for. Read More

Jessica F

Instruments: Flute Recorder Piccolo

I will start with basics and lay that out for the student and parent and require consistent 30 mins of outside practice each day to be able to build on skills in the lesson. Part of my lesson will working on reading music, learning scales visually with notes & fingerings as well as clapping rhythms prior to playing using a metronome. That way by building a foundation the student will have that to help achieve success. Read More

Onah K

Instruments: Piano Violin Music Keyboard

For beginning students who are children, I typically start with either Music for Little Mozarts Series or Piano Adventure Series with essential music theory related piano. Once the student has progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals, I will begin to introduce solo repertoires appropriate for their performance levels. For adults, I try to find out what the student is interested in first, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and fun, no matter their ability level. Read More

I'm one of the best booking agent, music promoters and drummer in San Marcos, TX. Born and raised in McAllen TX, I began playing piano at the age of 8 and picked up drums at age 10. With strong support from my family, I began studying jazz when I was 13-years-old and continue to study the art form of jazz to this day. I've recorded on a couple of albums, gone on four national tours with three different bands and currently perform with two jazz trio's: The Rex Simmons Trio and Austin Kinney & Friends. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Amy S

Instruments: Flute Piccolo

If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
My degree is a BS in Arts Administration with a minor in Radio/TV from Butler University in Indianapolis, IN. For a while I thought about being a Music Education major, but felt like I would be in a better position for administration so I would have more experiences to delve into upon graduation.

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I like to welcome the student and check in quickly to see how their week was. Then I would get started on scales, a few major and minor scales, as well as harmonic and melodic versions of the minor scales. Then, I like to do some short etudes in my student's text-type book. I like to end a lesson by going through the areas of full pieces that need the most help. I love to hear a piece in its entirety if there's time to do so.

Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
Hal Leonard is my go-to regimen for students. It's a comprehensive method which builds on the techniques needed to excel technically. I used this as a young student and feel it is a great base for young flautists.

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
For me, the technical runs, trills, double and triple tonguing, 32nd note runs...I could go on and on. I could always feel the music. The technical side of hitting all the notes and having the breath support to sustain it is paramount.

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I have loved teaching and witnessing how much a student has grown. That is the reason why I teach in the first place. Prior to that, I loved playing in ensembles in large music halls. You feel larger than life.

Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I've had my most recent student win a first place medal with her wind ensemble at their state contest. I've been working with her to enter a solo piece, but she's very shy and doesn't want to do a solo. I've also encouraged her to do a duet or trio with other flautists and I would help them as they practice. It hasn't happened yet, but I think she's more willing now than a year ago. Here's hoping she can overcome her stage fright.

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
My aunt thought I had the mouth to play the flute. I also loved the way it sounded. It was a challenging instrument in that one must have a tremendous amount of air flow, as it is not easy to breathe with a flute, it takes stamina and practice.

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.
