Instruments: Flute
I find teaching very rewarding and love to help students learn t love the flute and music. I try to teach music theory as well as flute technique and encourage music appreciation. Challenging h student with new material each lesson and trying to find out what inspires the student helps to keep lessons challenging and interesting. I also like to arrange for students to play together in duets and ensembles and to find out what their musical connection are with in their school or community. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Drums Bass Guitar Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion
My style of teaching is personal and caring. Whether my students develop a desire to pursue music beyond our lessons, I care about their happiness and personal success in life. I develop a relationship with my students and I really enjoy it when I hear that they used a concept I taught them in our music lessons for something beyond music. I at least hope to instill a strong understanding and enjoyment of music in each of my students which they can share with the people in their life. Read More
Instruments: Trumpet Trombone Euphonium French Horn Tuba
I am a music instructor with a wide variety of experiences, knowledge, and pedagogical approaches. Since I began teaching private, I have had students of all ages and ability levels achieve success, including one student who was accepted into the Colorado All-State Band and All-State Orchestra. In addition to private teaching, I currently teach music classes to all ages of students at a home school enrichment program, where I also direct the after-school band program. Read More
Instruments: Flute
I love helping students succeed, and for them to feel a sense of accomplishment as well as having a good time while playing the flute. I try to make every lesson something exciting to look forward to, leaving them wanting to practice before every lesson, whether it be learning a new piece, improvisations, singing, or any new activities to mix it up. I consider myself as a guide, and not someone that pushes or dictates students. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Bass Guitar Ukulele Double Bass
In any lesson with me the studeent will be working on technique, ear training, learning music, and learning to play with other people(or "jamming"). The "jamming" section always keep the lessons fun and informative, and teach the student how to play music with other people. And as always, I encourage all of my students to bring in music they enjoy, so that we can work on learning it together. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar
I'm a passionate musician who loves music and need it part of my everday life. I graduated from Los Angeles Recording School in 2011 with an Associates degree in Recording Arts. I decided to start teaching what I know to whoever wants to learn. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet Drums Synthesizer Piccolo Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Oboe Bassoon English Horn Keyboard
I've been teaching most of my adult life. I started tutoring while still in high school, and I continued as a teaching assistant as a college student. I taught at Hope College for six years in a number of different subjects: saxophone, jazz ensembles, music theory, aural skills, piano class, and music appreciation. I even ran the percussion ensemble for one semester, which was a blast! I love my AF band job, but I do miss teaching full-time. Read More
Instruments: Accordion
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
My father was a professional trumpet player, my sister played piano and won the Miss New York contest 2nd place, my aunt, uncle and cousin played trumpet, piano, accordion, saxophone, clarinet and bass as a group for fifty years. I played with all of them on occasion. However, when I played club dates or weddings I worked through the musician's union local 802 or various bookers. I started on accordion when I was six years old and played in school, at local talent shows and learned from a number of teachers. When I was eighteen I studied with a great teacher and accordionist, Chelso Ferrari. He taught me how to play full chords from fake books utilizing jazz sequences and transposing major, minor, and seventh chords into augmented fifths, sixths, major sevenths, and primarily diminished sevenths.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
No, I have been a performer not a teacher for years now. However, one of my students became very successful playing eastern european groups - polkas and rondos.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
The first big one was when I played Mozart's Rondo Ala Turk at a talent contest when I was 10 years old. I was always asked to join other kids playing instruments and the neighbors had their children take lessons from me. When I conquered (that's the only word I can use) Malaguena at twelve, I was very happy with myself and all the neighbors and friends were telling me how great I was. I went through a period of plateau, then I played in a couple or rock bands and wedding bands. I became bored when my aunt told me that I should take lessons from Chelso Ferrari - It changed the way I played and gave me a way to make money for school. But just the accomplishment of learning how to play jazz chords, is what I am most proud of.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
It was Malaguena but I've lost a little bit of my speed. I'm 72 years old. Although, I can play songs like But Beautiful, So In Love, Moonlight Serenade, very well. I have a couple of 'fake' books that I put together on my own that work well as dinner music, wedding music, club music. I believe I can play many of the songs as well as my deceased teacher, which is saying a lot.
When will I start to see results?
In students with some talent, I see results within three lessons. In students with natural talent, generally after one lesson and a week of practice. If a child does not have, at least, some innate musical 'feel,' it is probably better to try another of the arts. I know people who are geniuses who can't sing or play no matter what their intelligence level. I know people who sat down at a piano when they were little and can play with the slightest bit of instruction. Look at Stevie Wonder or Ray Charles. Also, great jazz artists like Errol Garner, never had a lesson!
