Sejeong J

Instruments: Piano Keyboard

The essence of my teaching comes from the faith and love that exist inside music and students' potential. Music is the universal language that has a powerful connection to every aspect of life, and I believe anyone can build relationship through music. In the diverse universe we live, music provides unity, liveliness, hope, and love to connect to a different world and people. I want to inspire, encourage, and help students who will connect others through music. Read More

In my private lesson, you'll gain an understanding, not only of the piano and how to play it in many different styles, but also of music, how it works and how songs are formed and structured. You are about to begin a journey of playing the piano that will take you as far as you are willing and able to go. I will give you everything you need to learn to play the piano by ear, along with lots of extras. Read More

Willis M

Instruments: Piano Guitar Saxophone Flute

For beggining students in guitar or piano, I would have them start with a basic beggining book such as something by hal leonard. With guitar I will teach basic chords and go from there to working on songs. Scales and chords will be a big part of beggining work in these instruments. As for Saxophone, I will usually begin with scales and long tone work- the later being something extremely important. Read More

Caleb I

Instruments: Piano Voice Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet Drums

My methods are executed with one core value in mind: create a life long learner and lover of music. This means I establish the fundamentals of theory with beginning students and reinforce them with intermediate students. Before an instrument is played, the concepts of rhythm, note value, and scales must be approached in an engaging way. With collaboration over curriculum, I would work with the student to find his/her interests and inspiration, making the journey worthwhile and fun! Read More

Matthew P

Instruments: Piano

I am a pianist, composer, and educator who strives to bring out the best in all my students. I have composed for film, internet, and theatrical productions and performed across the country in classical and jazz contexts. I hold a masters degree in jazz studies from the Jacobs School of Music, where I studied with Luke Gillespie, Steve Houhgton, and David Baker. In the summer of 2013 I performed with the Disneyland All-American College Band. Read More

Vickie P

Instruments: Piano

I typically begin by teaching students how to visiually identify the keys on the piano, as well as notes on sheet music. Then I like to begin to work on finger shape when playing, as well as basic scales. As we continue practicing with the fundamentals, I like to pick simple identifiable songs for students to move into next. Easily recognizable melodies make the learning process easier, more attainable to the student, and fun! Read More

Kathleen S

Instruments: Piano Voice

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, its important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments help fuel the students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs! Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Marjorie L

Instruments: Piano

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
The piano was the first instrument that I played after that there was no debate. The piano should be the first choice of instruments for all parents because of the following reasons: It uses both hands and all 10 fingers By using both hands in unison the piano helps to correct mirror movement tendencies The piano develops aural skills The brain processes music and language in the same regions and at the same time and at one location they actually overlap. Therefore, when playing the piano the brain is developing and integrating: language spatial-temporal reasoning skills and many more too numerous too list here.

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
My Senior Recital Performance when I played 30 minutes of Bach, Chopin, Mozart, and 30 minutes of Rachmaninov piano repertoire, as well as my performances at Southern Seminary with internationally known Dr Maurice Hinson. In addition to my personal successful performances, my best performances are those of my students performing Rachmaninov Prelude in G# minor, or 6.5 year old autistic child on the autism spectrum playing at a recital at Butler University, as well as a student performing Aram Khachaturian's Toccata in E flat minor at Indiana University Young Pianist Program Recital.

Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
One of my students was invited to attend a piano camp at Indianan University, at the conclusion of the camp, 3 weeks later, he was invited to play in the honours recital there. Later he won a full-tuition scholarship for Texas Christian University and was invited to study piano there with the director of the Van Cliburn International Chopin Competition. He made his debut in Carnegie Hall in the spring of 2018, and prior to that, he made his first CD of Alexander Tansman's music. Many of my students win first place in piano competitions, play for jazz bands and praise bands at their schools and churches. My GREATEST honour, however, is when my students with autism or other developmental disorders, and cerebral palsy as well, walk on stage and play their solos with pride. That is the ultimate honour!

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The greatest challenge that I have when performing on a piano is learning the feel of the instrument, learning it's "voice", tone quality, touch, response, action, the pedal condition in order to learn to master the instrument to make it do and say what the composer intended. Each piano is different, the touch, the mechanisms, and the pitch also, which requires a firm hand and familiarity with that instrument. Playing PPP is very difficult to play soft and still hear it, then make the tone sound like a bell, or a human voice: very difficult.

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.
