I have just relocated (04/18) to the Hickory, NC area and I'm looking for some new students to get started in the area. I have over 40 years in the music business performing, teaching, recording, composing. I can teach most types and styles of music and I specialize in improvisation. I love to see people learn, progress, and have as much fun playing music as I do. I came from the Colorado Springs, CO area. Read More
Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone Euphonium Tuba
I believe that music should be a satisfying endeavor. Learning music should be a great balance of having fun in the moment, and the joy of seeing oneself grow and progress as an artist over time. I meet each and every student at their own level, wherever that may be, and help them grow. I like to talk to each student or parent about their goals in music with the understanding that many have very different goals. Read More
Instruments: Piano Keyboard
My teaching experience has taught me that every student is different, and require different approaches. I have been teaching since the year 2000, where I have encouraged each student to practice. I also understand that learning piano can get repetitive therefore, my technique is to start with theory, and then to add playing by ear as well as reading the notes. I have learned that this method helps the student not to get burned out. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
Music is a very physical thing as well as a very abstract thing. In my lessons, there will be kennistetic learning through movement as well as teaching through sensation. Using tools like Solfege it helps create muscle memory and tuning. Piano students will learn a wealth of theory knowledge, correct posture and fingering patterns. I will also encourage singing in my piano lessons to reaffirm the student's aural skills. The Alexander Technique is also something that my students will explore in our lessons. Read More

I am an open-minded and energentic teacher that will do whatever it takes to help my students learn the piano!

I gradauted in 2011 from Hyles-Anderson College with a Bachelor of Science degree in Music Education with a minor in Piano Pedagogy. I had the opportunity to play with choirs and orchestras throughout college, and have continued learning and loving the piano. Read More

I was an educator in the Seneca Falls Central Schools for 38 years where I first became an instrumental music teacher. I taught woodwind lessons grades 5-12 and conducted elementary and middle school bands. I coached high school woodwind groups and was assistant marching band director, as well as woodwind adjudicator for the NY State School Music Association. When I became a classroom and choral director, I attended the Eastman School of Music in Rochester, NY to attain my Orff Schlwerk Master level training. Read More

I love being able to send students on their way for the day knowing that they put their best foot forward. Even if they did not come to a lesson prepared, being able to see growth in the small amount of time I'm with them is enough for me. I understand that every student progresses at their own pace, so I work with them and their parents to make sure that realistic goals are set and written down to hold the student, parent, and myself to this growth plan.

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A quiet room free of distractions. Ample lighting room heating and cooling control .

Country ballads were always for me a great way to enjoy the music world
People do like taking a country music and that is always been one of my favorites so as to date, I will leave it at that.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I was always out in the entertaianment field. So as there was a need for that sound, I simply dove into it
Again, I needed the additional sound that a second and a third instrument adds to the music I am creating

Alfred is a great teaching method book
Also, how Leonard has wonderful composition books that many students find rewarding, and these are a few of the method books utilize
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
To have an audience appreciate what they are hearing
To be able to entertain an audience successfully is always what the advance musician strive for
Having the audience appreciate what you’re trying to accomplish is the name of the game.

Guitar was the main thing at the time everyone wanted to be and have the ability to show their stuff
Utilizing various guitar songs, I became interested in performing these same songs in my own style.

A teacher who inspired me to go into music ? That was a long time ago
Many teachers along the way I have recognized this as former helpers and assistance.

Almost immediate !
Day by day the more a student practices the better he gets
Also when he gets recognition from his parents or fellow family members.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Maintain a proper attitude towards succeeding in your goals.
Dont give up midstream. Keep at it because you like the feeling of achievement.
Remember the feeling of success when you first perform for a listener

When a child is ready to start lessons he will tell you.
To force lessons on a child will not accomplish your goal.
Give this selection a good amount of time.
