I have been teaching private lessons for about 15 years, as well as camps and workshops. I have served as a clinician and instructor at Drumline camps and with Orchestra. I created the Percussive Arts Institute of Ruston to bring music education to an underserved community and taught around 100 students in an after-school program. Most of my students study the fundamentals of piano and voice, and then Branch into either percussion, guitar, strings, or brass, as they develop their interests. Read More

When it comes to teaching style, Mr. Alben focuses on building a strong technical and theoretical basis, providing the student with a road map to navigate the greater world of music. He believes in providing the tools necessary in order to facilitate the exploration in their own musical language. Therefore, though the technical and theoretical foundation is rooted in the Western Classical traditions, he encourages the exploration in other musical traditions and genres (including popular ones), especially if the student has a desire to do so.

For children and beginning studetns, I will typically start in a level one method book. This allows us to get acquainted with the instrument and some terminology that may be a bit foriegn for some students. This also provides an opportunity to learn how to read basic notes and chords which will highly accelerate our learning process. For those with experience and established musical interests, I will form a plan and practice schedule based around the interest and concepts that the student seeks from theirmusical quest. Read More
Instruments: Piano
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
First, they need the support and supervision of the parents or child care workers. It is especially great if parents sing or play a flute, for instance, along with the student's piano.
For students who have moved into playing with both hands, I point out how unique it is that the piano can accompany itself. I advise them to practice each hand separately and then to slowly put both hands together. The are usually amazed that they can do it. One student came up with the idea that "Amazing Grace" is the way to signal to me that his lesson has ended and it also signals to his household when his practice time has ended. They love the song so I explained the story about John Newton's and why he wrote it. Music lessons can become teaching opportunities in many ways. When he plays it to at practice, his mom knows she can put supper on the table.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
It can be hard to tell if a child is ready to start lessons until you actually sit down with him or her child and make them realize they have to pay attention and engage as instructed. Although a teacher wants to make learning anything fun at first, the child needs to accept that it isn't just a play date with music thrown in. How soon they can focus and sit still for 30 minutes varies. I am willing to try it at age 4, but it usually doesn't work. I don't have a minimum age requirement, but it progresses works best if they have started school and can read at least a little.
When will I start to see results?
You will start to see results when a student can look at the simplified, large size notes on paper and know how to play the song as written. I usually give them a paper keyboard to line up where the keys meet the backboard and learn to match "a" on the printed music with playing the "a" key. It is a shift, but I compare it to learning the alphabet, then making words, then sentences. It requires a connection and we usually start with something they already know, such as "Twinkle, Twinkle little star" or another childhood song. Sometimes I get a younger sibling to sing along with the older child playing. I've found students like to "teach", too.

I am interested in learning to play piano. I have a keyboard at home that has never been used. I've always wanted to learn to play and now, at 44, I'm ready to learn.
