Instruments: Piano Saxophone Clarinet
Getting my students to understand how consistency is much more important than anything else when it comes to practice is the first thing I strive for. I've found that making music learning a fun experience is what will help the student learn. No matter the age, training classically and applying music that the student enjoys is very important to keep the interest level high while not compromising the integrity of music as an art. Read More
Instruments: Piano Music Keyboard
I believe method books and small pieces of repertoire are an excellent tool for getting beginning students engaged in music. I also aim to tie in my compositional and improvisational skills into the mix; this can permit beginning students who have yet to master technique to express themselves more freely than written notation may allow them to. Piano is a wonderful instrument because it presents limitless possibilities for sound and is very intuitive -- why not use that openness to let your creative potential soar! Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I am a classically-trained pianist who loves sharing the joy of music with others. I graduated from Coastal Carolina University in 2017 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music, with a concentration on music education. During my studies, I developed a love of folk music from around the world, and have found that it is a great teaching tool. I am very passionate about music theory and ear training and love to teach others about them. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I am pretty new to teaching, since I started at around August of 2017. I taught for around one year in my senior year of high school, and had to leave for college during summer of 2018. I taught students at any place they were convenient with: sometimes at my studio, sometimes at their homes. I loved teaching when I first started. I am mostly focused on classical music, but teaching students helped me understand many more genres of music. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin
I have been teaching since 1984 and now I teach from my home studio. I am not trying to make my students the best in the world but I want them to love music. My students have accomplished many goals. They have all had the chance to perform in recitals. Some have won scholarships to private schools and colleges, gotten to perform at Disney World to record music for a movie soundtrack and have won top music awards from their high school graduations.

Hello! My name is Donovan, and I am an instructor who specializes in ear training and technique. Originally being a self-taught musician, I began with piano and harmonica, then eventually branched out to guitar, bass, banjo, among several others. I have ran sound equipment from an early age as well, learning how to set rigs for full bands and how to mix and master tracks for recording purposes. I have met and played with many famous and unfamous musicians, and find that the highest amount of talent is undiscovered and uncultivated. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I am professional musician with Bachelor Degree in Piano Performance and Music Education from Mykolaiv State Music College, and a Master Degree in Music Art from Mykolaiv National University, both located in Mykolaiv, Ukraine (UA). I was born and educated in Mykolaiv, UA, and speak Russian, Ukrainian and English languages. Music is my passion since I started learning at a very young age. I've had the privilege of studying under music teachers who were highly accomplished musicians, whose instructions incorporated lessons focused on European and Russian classical music style.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practicing music doesn't have to involve long frustrating sessions of sitting at the piano. Often, students struggle with practicing effectively because they struggle with knowing what they should be practicing. Practicing in shorter segments of 10-20 minutes at a time with one main goal in mind can drastically improve one's practicing.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Piano lessons involve a significant amount of sitting and listening in order to be productive. If your child is able to concentrate on a task for at least 5-10 minutes, they can certainly start lessons. Lessons typically involve different activities in order to keep students engaged. Being able to be attentive for 5-10 minutes at a time will ensure that they will be able to be productive when practicing by themselves as well.
When will I start to see results?
Results depend on a number of factors, including time spent practicing between lessons, interest in material, and overall passion for music. Busy schedules may conflict with practice time, and young children typically progress slower than older children and adults. In general, results are seen after the first few weeks of lessons. Short term goals allow students to see the small steps in their progress, and long term goals of one month or longer allow students to see their hard work pay off in larger ways.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am most proud of performing my senior piano recital in October of 2019. I was able to overcome my own performance anxiety, and performed a beautiful program of classical and jazz inspired music for a large crowd of family, friends, and community members.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I typically use the Faber method books. These books provide a fun and productive way to learn basic, intermediate, and advanced skills at the piano, and they have method books for very young students, as well as for the older beginning and adult student.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
For me, a normal practice session involves 15-20 minutes of scales and other technical exercises, followed by one or two hours of working on whatever material I need to work on. I often divide my practice sessions into sections of 15-20 minutes, and focus on one particular musical section or goal for that length of time.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have a Music Degree in Piano Performance. I chose this degree in order to continue growing as a musician by learning music of higher difficulties in many different areas of music history. The piano performance degree allowed me to grow as a performer, while also teaching me ways to improve and build on my own teaching skills.
