Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Ukulele Keyboard Acoustic Guitar
For beginners with voice, I teach students about the voice and how to sing healthily. It is very important to learn how your body works and how to sing properly without damaging your voice. Next, we will practice vocal exercise to teach you proper technique. We will the move on to learning repertoire that is age-appropriate. We can sing repertoire of any genre or style- your choice! As we continue, you'll learn and expand your repertoire and learn how to sing properly, prepare for auditions, perform, and be confident on stage. Read More

Hello everyone! My name is Josh S. and I am a fun, passionate, and driven music teacher who loves teaching students of all ages! I have been playing music for most of my life! In 2016, my passion for music led me to Belmont University here in Nashville, where I graduated their Songwriting and Music Business programs on the deans list. Throughout my time here in Nashville, I have had many incredible opportunities from playing shows with other amazing artists to recording in legendary music studios such as Ocean Way Nashville, where such artists as Beyonce, Garth Brooks, and Carrie Underwood have recorded!

Instruments: Piano Voice Violin Viola Trumpet
I've taught piano and violin for many years and enjoy the rewards and the challenges of working with students and having them learn the skills to both enjoy and succeed in music. I have also spent a number of years as music director for several different schools and churches working with choirs and handbells. I have found that when students are motivated and inspired there is practically no limit to what they can accomplish, and helping to provide that inspiration is one of my greatest goals, and why I enjoy teaching.

I know that every student has a different learning style, and therefore, each lesson plan is custom-made. I work to further develop their natural skills, and making them feel comfortable working on what doesn't come as easily. Together, the student and I work to find out exactly what inspires them, and then all of their lessons will revolve around that. Read More

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
1. Warmup - Scales (5 min)
2. Practicing hard spots very slowly, hands separate, counting out loud, with a metronome (10 min)
3. Playing all assigned songs and recording them and listening back (10 min)
4. Music Theory Book Assignments (2 min)
5. Playing 1-2 of your favorite songs you've learned so far
This practice routine can be expanded or contracted. It's important to practice in a room with no distractions like tv, people talking, or other music being played. It's also important to practice everyday if you can. Your teacher can tell if you didn't practice very much, but you still need to go to your lesson regardless if you practiced or not. The better prepared you are the more you can learn and move forward.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
My degree is in Music Performance because I wanted be able to be a performing artist and studio musician. I'm also a lifelong learner in Music Production, Composition, Business, Marketing. It doesn't stop just after you get your degree. In fact, you really start your "Real World Education" when you start making a living performing, studio work, teaching, managing money, setting goals, developing "People" skills. The thing I love about learning to play the piano is that you have to FOCUS on learning to play for "LONG Periods Of Time". I've spend over 50,000+ hours of practicing the piano, performing, rehearsing, composing, producing, recordings, planning. You have to devote yourself to a lifelong pursuit of playing and development. "TALENT" is developed over "LONG" periods of time without quitting.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
My dream piece is playing music that I'm currently working on. How much do I practice that piece? I practice it until I can literally play it while sleeping or dreaming. When I can play a piece and drift off to sleep and start dreaming, and I can still play the piece on "Auto-Pilot", then I'm playing my "Dream Piece". When you mastered a song to the point that it is effortless, you are playing your "Dream Piece". I have practiced songs so much that I can drift off to dream, or have a conversation with someone, or read a newspaper article and my hands continue to play. That is when I know I've practiced a piece enough.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
If I weren't a musician, I'd probably be doing something else that I developed an interest and passion for. I think trying different things and activities is a good thing, and pursuing the ones you really really love because anything that you want to become good at requires a lot of time developing that before you start getting paid to do it. At one time in my life, I wanted to be an NBA Basketball player. I used to practice shooting basketball for hours, and then hours lifting weights, and hours doing drills. I loved it, unfortunately I stopped growing when I was in 6th grade, and all my other friends kept growing and getting taller, stronger, and faster.
