Michael P

Instruments: Piano Voice Keyboard

I have an incredible passion for music and I believe that I pass that passion along to my students, helping them also develop a love for the technique and nuances that music contains. I was born in England and came to America to complete my Masters degree in Music at the age of 21. I have been teaching both in England and America collectively for 7 years and feel extremely confident in meeting the needs of every student I meet. Read More

Trent P

Instruments: Piano Trumpet

For teaching trumpet fundamentals, there are a handful of helpful books that I use. One of the main books I would suggest students to use is the Arban book. This book contains exercises for just about everything on the trumpet, ranging from excerpts that are challenging for beginners, and excerpts that are challenging for more experienced players too. Another book I would use is Clarke Technical Studies. This book contains a lot of exercises to help build dexterity in the fingers with playing the trumpet. Read More

Erik M

Instruments: Piano Guitar Trumpet Bass Guitar Synthesizer Music Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

There is no such thing as a "best method for everybody" but better methods for people's unique needs. For beginners, texts from Hal Leonard, Jamey Aebersold and Alfred's piano course are great examples to guide students through, but ultimately the specific text doesn't matter as long as I can teach the fundamentals necessary to be performance ready. After the basics are mastered, I'll introduce the skills needed for a first recital. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Katherine M

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.

...and the instrumental section has been abridged for our purposes. Also, I’ve adjusted the time feel in the intro and instrumental sections to make it less confusing (I’ll explain this and demonstrate it in the video).   We’re also gonna approach this from a strumming standpoint. We’ll be using a pick and I believe John Rzeznik and Robby Takac (the guitarists on this song) both use picks. Feel free to use your fingers to strum and they do provide more sound options. More importantly, I encourage you to approach the song however you feel most comfortable. These are just my suggestions. Accompaniment... Read More

There are many ways to get involved in this area of the music industry, and sorting through all of them can prove overwhelming for some people, so let’s look at the basics of it. What Exactly Is Audio Engineering In its simplest form, audio engineering is the manipulation of sound, either recorded or amplified.

...to sit still and focus for at least 30 minutes. It is best if your child has indicated some desire to learn piano. If the interest is generated by the parent, younger students have been known to lose interest more quickly than if they expressed desire to try the instrument themselves. Mental readiness: All music is made up of notes and every note has a letter name. In order to properly grasp the concepts of music, younger children will need to be able to read and comprehend the alphabet. In addition to understanding the alphabet, numbers and counting are a concept that students will also need to understand. Counting is necessary to learn the concept of rhythm and beat. ... Read More

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.
