Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Keyboard Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I tend to use standard materials, especially for beginning players. But I will also mix in exercises and techniques tailored specifically to the students needs. It is good to learn from books, but also important to vet information that is not necessarily needed or already soundly in their techniques. Every musician is unique and they have their own way about learning and progressing. For more advanced students, learning as much repertoire as possible will be stressed. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I have been teaching voice, songwriting, and piano since I began college in 2013. I have taught both younger and older students alike, and I tailor my lessons to their needs and wants. I find that every student is unique in their journey with music and I do my very best to help them achieve attainable goals that we have set-up together, taking into account their age and their musical interests.

At our first lesson, we will dive into what YOU want to learn. It's my job as a teacher to facilitate a creative and challenging learning environment, but it's up to you, the student, to make the time we spend together something you would like to work on. I'm confident that we can both find common ground to stand on and find some great music to explore. Beginners will always use some sort of method book, learn to read music and rhythms. Read More

For beginners, I firmly believe in establishing strong fundamentals. However, you can't spell fundamentals with out "fun"! So, even while building fundamentals, music lessons should be fun and geared toward what the student wants out of all of this. Whether that's learning a specific song, style, cool musically visual trick, or just jamming, I'm here for it all! Musical journeys are specific to the individual and therefore there is no one path that all students must follow. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin
For beginning students, I work with a student for violin on the parts of the instrument and the bow. Few students learn quick on the parts of the violin and the bow.I used the violin books on All for Strings by Robert Frost and Kjos music company from San Diego. I go over the repertoire from a student to play the rhythm slowly and hearing the pitches for the school homework. Read More

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A normal practice session for instrumental lessons with your child typically follows a structured routine to help them develop their skills effectively. Here's a general outline of what a practice session looks like:
1. Warm-up: We usually start with a warm-up exercise to get your child's fingers and muscles ready for playing. This can include finger exercises, scales, or simple melodies to loosen up and improve finger dexterity.
2. Review: We'll spend some time reviewing the material from the previous lesson. This helps reinforce what they've learned and ensures they're building on a solid foundation.
3. New Material: Next, we'll introduce new concepts or techniques. This could involve learning a new piece of music, practicing specific technical exercises, or focusing on particular aspects of playing, such as dynamics, articulation, or timing.
4. Repetition and Technique: Repetition is key to improvement, so we'll work on sections of the music that need extra attention. We'll also focus on specific techniques and skills related to the instrument, like bowing techniques for string instruments or breath control for wind instruments.
5. Interpretation and Musicality: We'll explore the musicality of the piece, discussing elements like phrasing, dynamics, and expression. This helps your child bring their own personality and emotion to the music they're playing.
6. Sight-reading and Ear Training: To develop a well-rounded musician, we'll often include sight-reading exercises and ear training to improve their ability to read and interpret music on their own.
7. Performance Practice: Preparing for performances is an essential part of music education. We'll dedicate some time to practice performing the piece with confidence and precision.
8. Q&A and Feedback: Throughout the session, your child is encouraged to ask questions and seek clarification on any challenges they're facing. I'll provide constructive feedback to help them improve.
9. Goal Setting: We'll discuss short-term and long-term goals for your child's musical development. Setting achievable milestones can motivate them to practice consistently.
10. Cool Down: We'll finish the practice session with some relaxation exercises and a recap of what they've accomplished. This helps reinforce the positive aspects of their practice and sets a positive tone for their next session.
It's important to note that the duration and intensity of practice sessions may vary depending on your child's age, skill level, and individual goals. Regular, focused practice is essential for progress, and I'll work with your child to tailor their practice routine to their specific needs and abilities.
