Hi everyone, my name is Kyle I'm a recent graduate from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst.

For beginnng students who are children , I typically start with Faber's Piano Adventures. Once the student has progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals , I begin to introduce solo repertoire appropriate for their first recital performance. For adults I try to find out what the student is interested in and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and fun, no matter their ability level. I encourage analyzing the piece especially if the student is having difficulty memorizing it read about the composer or listen to other compositions of the same composer Read More
Instruments: Piano
Through my seven years of teaching piano, I have worked with a variety of students ages 5-75. I emphasize technique and music theory alongside excellent repertoire. The student and I generally choose repertoire together, so that both of us can be excited to work on the pieces together. As a composer, I also encourage my students to create their own music.

My students love the Faber Faber "Adventures in Music". These method books, in my opinion, have some of the most innovative and motivating pieces. This method gives the student a solid foundation in theory focusing on scales, and used in concert with other materials bring the student to a very proficient level. I also use supplementary materials such as Dozen A Day, Hanon, and Czerny. Martha Mier books for young children, especially her "Imagine" books are unique and inspiring. Read More
Instruments: Piano Trumpet
As a highschooler I was very motivated to help the young musicians of the Middle School. I would dedicate a period of my day to running sectionals and teaching students in the Middle and High School. Though I was never paid for this work, as I was just fine doing it for free, I learned much about effective and ineffective ways of communication in teaching. During college I would help the youth prep school jazz band by being a behavior role model, playing in the section, and running sectionals. Read More

My teaching style is all about steady, consistent progress. It is very valuable to dedicate even the smallest amount of time each day to practice. I like to provide my students a range of exercises to reinforce material that's already been learned, familiarize themselves with new concepts, and then a little bit extra if they feel inspired to branch out. I aim, also, to share my enthusiasm about music with my students. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone
Hi! I'm Ben. I am a fervent lover of music in all its many shapes and sizes, but personally specialize in jazz performance and theory. I first picked up the saxophone way back in elementary school, and in the spring of 2020 I graduated from Santa Clara University with a Bachelor of Arts in Music. Learning and performing music has been a major part of my life for as long as I can remember, and along the way has taught me so much more than just scales and chords. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
It takes a lot of focus and discipline. I would make sure that practice time is set aside and written into a schedule. Don’t spend too much time focusing on things you aren’t succeeding at but go back to a simpler form that you have already mastered and build on that area. For example, if you are having trouble with a C Major scale in piano, you can go back to a five finger pattern by breaking the scale down into those first five notes (C, D, E, F & G). Once you have mastered this, you can add on A, B, & C.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I had quite a few teachers who inspired me to do music. My mother, first of all, took me a church choir rehearsal at age four or five, and it was love at first sound! My grandfather listened to big band music & songs that sounded like Frank Sinatra. And he was always listening to tapes and records as far back as I can remember. My earliest music teacher was back in kindergarten. Having a music class at that age was so influential for me. My introduction to instruments was in fifth grade when I started taking clarinet lessons. This was when I really started to pick up on music notation/reading music. And although, I've been singing my whole life, I didn't quite learn how to properly sing until my freshman year of high school. I worked incredibly hard for three years so that I could eventually join the elite chorale, which I made my senior year. I would have to say my high school choir director had the biggest influence on me in terms of really studying and pursuing music.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
My music degree is in vocal performance with an additional focus on piano. I chose vocal performance because I have always been singing and this is the instrument that has always come the most naturally for me. I love singing and it just made sense. After a couple of years I chose to add piano lessons because this was another instrument I seemed to pick up quickly and enjoyed playing. I had a goal to be able to sing and accompany myself on piano simultaneously and I was able to reach that goal in time to perform a piece at my recital.
