Instruments: Piano Keyboard
I am a motivated piano instructor. I enjoy teaching as well as learning what genre my student likes to play. I have been playing as a church musician since the age of 16. I had the opportunity to play for the adult and youth choirs. I am versatile in different genres however, I specialize in gospel music. My method of teaching is to learn scales in every key, as well as teaching the student to read music as well as ear training. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
The methods I choose fora studentwill be individualized based on wherethat student is and wherethe studentwould like to go. I will select different methods for different kinds of learners. However, we will certainlybegin by looking atthe student'sinstrument and learning environment and evaluate the technique and knowledge of the student. We will also begin by discussing long term goals and setting clear short term goals in ear-training, sight-reading, performance as well as theory and composition.The keyboard is a great place to learnmusical fundamentals, especially for beginners because it is so easy to visualizeintervals and patterns.

Instruments: Piano
While Alfred's method also teaches position playing, it also dives into intervallic reading. Many true, albeit arranged, baroque, romantic, and classical piano pieces are featured without a lot of fluff and fanfare. This may be an ideal method for most of students. The Alfred method is featured in a variety of books, including an all-in-one piano course for children, a prep course, and a basic piano library, completely correlated and presented in progressive levels.

Instruments: Piano Keyboard
I use a variety of methods, custom-fit for each student individually. I teach Classical and church piano, along with sightreading, ear training, performance techniques, music theory, and other techniques specially designed to give my students the most well-rounded learning experience possible. I tend to prefer Piano Adventures for younger students and teens, and incorporate use of the corresponding app whenever possible. I also focus on helping students learn to play by ear, since I believe this is the quickest way to feel a mastery over the instrument! Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I began teaching private voice students while I was still working on my Masters degree. I was the Concert Choir section leader in College and found leadership and spreading my love for music to be exhilarating! I encourage all of my students to set a reasonable practice schedule to get themselves into the habit of practicing and really reaching their full potential as a student. I accept recreational students as well as students who are looking towards a career in music in the future. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I have three different sets of books for new students that are children; so if you have more than one starting lessons, you can hear different songs. I typically use Piano Adventures, Bastien, or Alfred, although Piano Adventures is my favorite. I suggest the lesson book, theory book and technique books be usedsimultaneously to give the student the most well-rounded lesson. For adults or even teenagers, I like to learn about what interests them musically and work towards that style or song. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Music
My teaching experience dates back to my time as an undergraduate. As a freshman in my music education program, I volunteered to be the music director and conduct the orchestra for a production of The Addams Family Musical. The show was put on by a student organization on campus. I taught all of the actors their music. Fast forward two years later. I transferred to Shawnee State University to study musical theatre.

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A quiet room free of distractions. Ample lighting room heating and cooling control .
Repeat phasing technique is important, and needs to be adhered to diligently and with lack of diverse feeling

About in the years when I was 20 years old i remember really been into the pro side of things

That story is a long one and too long for here
However, there is a distinct and additional accomplishments throughout my family over the years, and I am very proud of that
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I really can’t answer that successfully because that’s not where my thoughts are. Maybe in the future I this question. Maybe running a music store would be a nice idea.

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

Chopin concerto or any of the classical greats would be the dream piece I would care to accomplsh
Many classical pieces I do like to perform so there is a wide variety I can I can use as a piece to perform.

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.

In these years, I can play many instruments I can entertain on various instruments. I can play change keys,
Create and write songs, using various keys, and having the ability to understand music has always been a great accomplishment

Music is a wonderful art, and to be a member and student is a great accomplishment

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.
