Gloria G

Instruments: Piano Violin

I use different book series, depending on the age and level of the student. For young students, I start with the little Mozarts book series, lesson books, and workbooks. For older students, I will either use Bastien or Alfreds lesson and workbooks. This is mixed with a classical and folk book. We also work on theory, and making sure we know our intervals. Students also learn about key signatures and recognizing sharps and flats. Read More

Bill B

Instruments: Piano Drums

Okay. maybe TV inspiring us to be better is a reach, but myself as a drum instructor I am there to do that very thing; I am there to support the student in learning, to stand beside them as they discover their potential and to make their hour spent with me "alive time". A time full of humor, learning and playing that the student will look forward to week after week. Read More

Matthew H

Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Bass Guitar

We learn the music you want to learn when you study with me! The very first lesson I ask the student what he or she is inspired by. We then work towards those songs, in a step by step gradual process. Along the way fundamentals about rhythm, the musical alphabet and theory are taught within the context of the song we are learnning. This makes the lessons moreenjoyable and relatableto the student's deisred outcomes. Read More

Here's a detailed description of my teaching methods, practices, and philosophies, including the creation of custom lesson plans and materials: Teaching Philosophy: My teaching philosophy revolves around fostering a holistic musical experience. I believe that music is not only about technical proficiency but also about cultivating a deep connection and understanding of the art form. I aim to nurture well-rounded musicians who not only excel in playing an instrument but also appreciate the broader aspects of music, such as theory, history, and creativity. Read More

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Anyone at any part in their musical journey is ready to start lessons whether you're a complete beginner or a professional. Any one at any age with a passion for music is ready to begin working with a teacher. It's better to start your children with a teacher then to have them be self taught and eventually start taking lessons, however everyone at every level in their musicianship will benefit from working with a teacher.

When will I start to see results?
Most people aren't able to tell how and when you're progressing but as a teacher I can say that you are always making progress even if the results aren't obvious to yourself. I think depending on where you are in your musical journey the progress you see when you start working with a teacher can be immediate and linear growth, however a lot of people who are self taught and seek a teacher after being self taught might come to find you actually regress a bit due to having to back track to fix bad habits or implement necessary technique you didn't on your own. While this feels like negative results your still making progress towards the penultimate goal of mastery. Having a teacher will not only help make sure you're making consistent progress but we'll also be there to celebrate the progress you don't always recognize when teaching yourself as well as fixing habits and finding solutions that would take years longer on your own.

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I had really great connections with all my music teachers in middle and high school, especially with my middle and high school choir teachers which is definitely what inspired me to be a teacher. I saw what they did everyday and thought to myself how fun it would be to be in their shoes teaching music all day. I think the way they inspired me more so in high school was as a teachers assistant I got to see the nuance of teaching and how you get to share a part of yourself with others through music. I was inspired by how much my teachers loved what they did and put so much time and effort into sharing music with us.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
My biggest advice to practicing effectively is to have a consistent practice routine that you take full advantage of. Even when doing the repetitive "easy" stuff like warm ups and exercises, giving it your full focus and effort is the fastest way to make progress in your solo repertoire, leading to your improvement of skill. Practicing everyday for a short period of time will do you more good than practicing for a long period of time less frequently, like 1-2 days a week. 15 minutes a day minimum for children and 30 minutes a day minimum for adults is what I recommend and make every minute of your practice count. I like to think of my practice routine as 20% warm ups and exercises, 20% sight reading and literacy training, and 60% repertoire 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.
