Music Lessons in Watertown, MA

Instruments: Trombone

Listening to these masterpieces filled me with great awe and made me more aware of the world, which strengthened my desire to explore it through music. Therefore, I chose to attend Montclair State University in my home state of New Jersey where I majored in music. My goal was to achieve a principal position in a high level orchestra and teach. However, I started to rethink my decision. Although playing the trombone gave me purpose throughout my early schooling, I did not explore other disciplines. Read More

Instruments: Guitar Electric Guitar Djembe Acoustic Guitar

My teaching experience began with my passion for the guitar. I started teaching a few students early on when I first was learning how to play. I have since then taught students with disabilities and students of all ages. I have around 1 years of experience with teaching. I teach modern, rock, experimental, metal, blues and classical guitar as well as keyboard. I like to make learning fun for children so I let them pick a lot of the material they would like to learn on guitar or piano. Read More

Instruments: Cello

I center the way I teach technique around what "feels" good to a student, especially older students who have already started, to make sure that we are able to prevent and respond to injuries. So, I start with stretching and will frequently refer back to exercises that are meant to integrate physical ease into playing. Aside from that, I try to balance a consistent routine/expectation of things I want to cover (asking for things a week in advance, always playing a scale at the start of the lesson, etc), while also meeting a student where they are at on the day.

I'm a passionate and motivated vocalist/guitarist/lyricist who is mostlynew to teaching in the formal sense. I've spent time in the past teaching friends here and there, but never really setup a regular clientele due to family or work commitments etc. While I consider myself to be a versatile vocalistwho can sing most styles of music I belive my greatest gift to be able to access the deep emotions that make a song stand out to the listener.

Instruments: Trumpet Music

Watching my students develop a passion for music is one of the most rewarding things a teacher could ask for. To that end it is important that each student progresses at their own pace. Most importantly its important that all of my students leave their lessons knowing more than when they walked in! I will always set realistic goals and expectations for all my students. It's also important that my students have their accomplishments recognized as it encourages them to keep trying to get better and I will constantly push them to do that. Read More
