Piano Lessons in Beach Center, CA

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Clarinet

This is important for students of all ages and skill levels and is something students can forever practice and improve upon. I also focus part of the lesson on learning various scales, arpeggios, and other theory based materials. Lastly, I like for students to work on real songs that can be used for performance during every lesson. Thus, the 3 areas I focus on are breathing and overall sound, theory and technique, and perfomance repetoire. Read More

My music leadership experience began with competitive show choir in 8th grade - voted Student of the Year - and these experiences inspired me through high school! The show choir program director appointed me tenor section leader in 9th grade and Voice Captain in 10th grade for my ability to lead voice sectional rehearsals and provide pianist accompaniment when needed. I am currently a performing arts coach for the Anaheim Union High School District, supporting vocal music and dance program directors with clinician and choreography services. Read More

As a multi-instrumentalist, I've loved teaching piano, accordion, and brass instruments to all ages and levels the past +20 years. I've lived, taught, and performed around the world: after earning my bachelor of music in piano performance degree alongside my bachelor of music in horn performance degree in Kansas, I went to the New England Conservatory in Boston for my master's in horn. I was lucky to have received full scholarships for all my degrees. Read More

Instruments: Piano Drums

My teaching style is very Freddie Gruber, if you don't know who that is I recommend you look him up on youtube! I believe in motion. In understanding the motions your body has to make and repeating them like an athlete to get the same sound on the drum every time you hit a drum. In sitting down to play and not be nervous you will mess up, but love the fact that you will mess up and it's okay and part of this process. Read More

One of my strengths as a teacher is adapting my teaching style to fit the needs of any student I'm working with. For some students, concepts come easily and their motivation is very clear, but for others, it's not always so easy. The biggest virtue that I've found to hold true throughout my years of teaching is patience. I treat all my students as (young) adults, and that means treating them with respect and understanding to the utmost degree. Read More
