I have taught dozens students from over 20 countries about songwriting, guitar playing, singing, lyric writing, piano, ukulele and more. Since 2011 I have played in over 1000 stages, starting in my hometown of Corrientes, Argentina, at first playing on the streets for tips and later moving onto bars, later theaters, and now touring full time. Teaching has always been something I have gravitated towards, specially after several requests from my listeners. I have ample examples of frustrated or disillusioned kids and adults that left my classes with their heads held high, because they finally felt they were moving another more step towards their musical goals.

Whether in the studio, on stage, or on TV, Evan W. is an ambitious, multifaceted bass player that continues to deliver exceptional music.

I have about 3 years of private lesson teaching experience. I offer guitar, piano, and voice lessons. I believe that have a good foundation on any instrument can help with progressing in any music style. I enjoy teaching all ages and am used to adapting lessons for any age and level. Music can be beneficial for anyone, not just musicians. I always format my lessons around the particular students interest. I take teaching seriously and am very reliable. Read More

Though I have been teaching for over two decade years, I am far from feeling like a burn-out. In fact, the more I teach, the more intrigued I become with the learning process, and I am constantly re-tooling my approach in order to help my students learn more effectively. I LOVE teaching, and I have chosen to teach privately because I enjoy the one-to-one interactions with my students. I can actually get to know each of my students, and I use my knowledge of each new student's goals, temperament, age and learning style to tailor each lesson. Read More

After I graduated from Roosevelt University I had more time outside of academics to start a teaching practice. In 2011, I worked at Lynn Marcel School of Fine Arts in Hillside, IL. As a drum instructor I helped design a corruculum plan and taught younger students ages 8-14. In 2013 and 2014, I worked at School of Rock in Oark Park, IL teaching drum set, voice, and piano for students of all age groups. Read More

I am a skilled and passionate instructor, composer, pianist, and organist as well as a graduate of Loyola University New Orleans. Initially self-taught on the piano, I had my first experience with lessons on the organ thanks to the charity of Dr. Marcus St. Julien, and I want to pass that spirit of mentoring on to every student I meet. I am experienced in and passionate about all kinds of classical music, ranging from Bach to Beethoven to Ravel, Prokofiev, and Schoenberg, and I also have a background in jazz and pop music.

I begin with the fundamentals of music theory that you will need to begin playing your instrument, and then I like to get straight into learning songs as quickly as possible. The student may choose what songs to learn (recommended) or I can make suggestions. You will learn a range of skills including tuning, instrument care, song struture, chords, soloing, and MUCH MORE. My goal is for you not just to learn to play certain notes or chords, but also understand why that note or chord fits where it does. Read More

When will I start to see results?
The more consistently you practice, the quicker the results will be. But the key is to have patience! It will take time. Anything good takes time and is worth waiting for. The beauty of music is that there is always more to learn and even when you get to the skill level of a professional musician or a college graduate of music school, you will still want more results. So enjoy the process! But as I said before, 5 minutes of focused practice a day will go miles farther than an hour or two here and another hour later in the week.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If a child can talk or walk, they can play an instrument! It is never to early to start learning. Some of the best musicians in the world started playing music around the time they started talking. If anything, just put an instrument in their hands and let them get used to the feel of it, or let them enjoy making the sounds of it. In one of my favorite books on music education, Effortless Mastery, Kenny Werner often talks of letting go of the need to sound good and going back to the state of mind of a child first playing an instrument. I think that could be the most valuable time in learning music.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
First of all, enjoy it. It should not be a chore. If it is, find a way to make it fun (ex. practice to fun backing tracks instead of a click metronome).
Second, 5 minutes a day of focused practice is better than 2 hours of unfocused frustrated practice. Set a 5 minute goal each day, and when the timer goes off, if you're still enjoying it, keep practicing. If not, put it away until tomorrow!
Third, don't move on until you have the material you are working on truly mastered. Trust me, you will enjoy playing it much more once you have mastered it!
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
Right now I try to put in at least 20-30 minutes a day doing warmups on the upright bass, and often that's all I do! My warmups generally include playing slow scales bowed with a tuner or a drone and some metronome practice (walking a fast bass line with the metronome only on beat 4, or a really slow bass line and trying to keep the time on my own). I also spend a lot of time gigging and going to jam sessions, which I consider practice as well. If I have extra solo practice time, I generally spend it learning new tunes (there are ALWAYS more to learn!) or transcribing bass lines or solos.
