Music Lessons Woodford County, KY

Instruments: Flute, Piccolo, Music

I've always believed that everyone has their own unique learning style, and everyone learns differently and at different paces than everyone else. I like to have a more relaxed style to my teaching, to help keep my students at ease. I also like to make sure to acknowledge the accomplishment and progress students have made, as sometimes learning music can make you feel like you're not making any progress or moving very fast.

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music. Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments fuel students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. Read More

I put emphasis in acquiring a desired set of skills must not tarnish one's love for music. Saying that, I expect my students to complete the assignments given and work hard to advance their understanding and abilities as musicians. I endeavor to seek and consider new ideas and strategies to broaden my perspectives and understandings that are beneficial to teaching a student. I also reflect upon my teaching methods from time to time with feedback and insight from others in a manner that leads to improved performance and development of skills to use a variety of methods and exercises in order to become a better instructor.

Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Drums, Mallet Percussion, Orchestral Percussion, Conga, Music

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

Instruments: Guitar, Music, Electric Guitar, Classical Guitar, Acoustic Guitar

I started teaching guitar when I was in High School to my friends that I met through singing beside and learning music theory in the choir room. Shortly after I graduated from High School and went to college at Western Kentucky University, I was teaching even more people from ages 5 to 90, at WKU and Musician's Pro, a local music store. My goal as your music teacher is to give you courage to express yourself, have a lot of fun, and play music to the best of your ability! Read More
