Peter A

Instruments: Piano Voice Trumpet Trombone Euphonium Tuba Music Keyboard

The first time I began teaching music was shortly after graduating high school, and asking local band directors to get some experience with their summer band, and marching band programs. While studying music in college, I received further training in classrooms outside of music to further develop my skills. It was during this period I that began to find joy from one-to-one learning. While I intend to provide most of the educational material, I also encourage my students to bring what they want to learn as well for a well-rounded experience. Read More

Im a passionate and motivated instructor who loves working with students of all ages and sharing my love of music! In 2010, I graduated from Bradley University with a Bachelor of Music degree in vocal performance. I started teaching private lessons while in college and loved it so much I never stopped!

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Trumpet Bass Guitar Ukulele Keyboard Electric Guitar Djembe Acoustic Guitar

I'm here to help the student. We all were students at one point and I remember how I felt in the learning stages. I'm just trying to help the student understand their instrument and assist while bringing confidence to venture the possibilities they can have with that instrument. My teaching style is a fun and simple one. I always say that practice is the best teacher but as an instructor in here to help with the journey. Read More

Benjamin P

Instruments: Piano Trombone

The methods I use to teach depend on a number of factors. For enrolled in beginner band at their school, I will use whichever method their school is using. If the school is not using a specific method, I use the Rubank method supplemented with my own materials. For more advanced players I assign various etude books, jazz play along books, and method books based on the students needs. I provide all the materials for my beginning piano students for the first few months, then assign method books based on the student's interests. Read More

Instruments: Piano Flute Recorder Music Keyboard

Learning music entails much more than just playing a song. I am sure to incorporate theory, ear training, history, technique, and performance skills into the learning process. The goal is to teach the student to be a well-rounded musician and develop all of the skills needed to understand and fully enjoy the entire musical experience. In order to keep lessons fun, I will incorporate small rewards and am always welcoming of jokes and humor as long as our learning stays on track. Read More

Justyn J

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Trumpet Trombone Bass Guitar Recorder Euphonium French Horn Keyboard Acoustic Guitar

I am a teacher who looks to make music both fun and rewarding. As well as teaching the student how to make beautiful music, I also try and tie in our lessons as a way to becoming a better citizen. The habits that we form as a musicians will help us as individuals. Things like setting and working towards goals, tracking and monitoring progress, and educating ourselves beyond the lesson room are all things that will serve my students as individuals, no matter what discipline or situation that they will find themselves in down the road.

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.
