Instruments: Piano Drums
I have taught students individually and in sectionals and drumlines, allowing me to gain experience in the instruction of both classical and popular music styles. This has allowed me to hone my skills in integrating styles, as well as tailoring my instruction to the student's particular interests and needs.ter graduation, My greatest pleasure as an instructor is watching a student use the skills I have taught to develop his or her own unique "voice" and means of expression on the instrument, whether it be drumset, concert percussion, or piano.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums Bass Guitar Synthesizer Harmonica Ukulele Music Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I've been teaching guitar for the past 12 years, and more recently bass, ukulele, piano/keys, voice, percussion and studio recording as well. I have taught students ranging from child to adult, as well as working for two years as a caretaker with mentally challenged and special needs individuals. Being a teacher involves much more than just following curriculum out of a book. Each student has their unique way of absorbing information, and we should always remain sensitive to that. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Cello Viola Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet Euphonium French Horn Tuba Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Oboe Bassoon
I am a passionate and patient instructor who loves working with students and sharing my love of music. I graduated from Bowling Green State University in 2000 with a Bachelor of Music degree in Instrumental Music Education, with a focus on Euphonium. I have worked as a long term sub in middle school band and have taught privately since that time. I currently work outside the education field, but still enjoy sharing music with those who want to learn. Read More

Isaac Winland holds a degree in Music Performance from Marshall University, and now is attending the University of Akron as a graduateassistant. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Ukulele Mandolin Keyboard Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I like to tailor my approach to make music FUN for my students. I don't want them to ever think practice is a chore. My students don't "work" their insturments, they "play" them. Read More
Instruments: Piano
For the youngest beginners, my focus is on the enjoyment of music. Using either The Music Tree or My First Piano Adventures, I teach children about the elements of music and how to appreciate music, before going into actual technical work on the piano. I primarily teach with The Music Tree (Frances Clark's method) and supplement with pieces from other method books, and prepare children for recitals and performances in the future. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet Bass Guitar Music Electric Guitar
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
For me, it's less about styles and genres, and more about groove, and expression of the music! I'll play anything, as long as it's together with amazing musicians who can make the music come ALIVE, utilizing the wide a palette of sounds and scope of imagination as we can!
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I am currently on a mission to learn piano, guitar, bass, and drums to an intermediate level! My skills level on these instruments is still quite beginner, but I'm on the quest to being able to play all of them to a functional level. Why? Because I want to be the jam session KING!
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Other than my great-grandmother, who was quite accomplished on a south Indian string instrument called the Veena, I am the only other musician in my family!
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
Gradually overtime, more and more fantastic musical moments have solidified my career path as a musician. Experiences such as going on tours at an young age, as well as my time in music school were amazingly exciting - and I am now just trying to pass on that joy that I have been lucky enough to feel for over 20 years now!
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
(Australia) Higher School Certificate Nomination for excellence - "Encore" Concert (Sydney Opera House)
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
For all instruments - developing a great sound, great sense of time and rhythm, is very difficult. Nothing is impossible though! Mastering anything just requires a plan, and the right amount of time.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I loosely use concepts for the "Effortless Mastery" Method, written by Kenny Werner.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I do about 90 mins of practise on my sound, and on basic technical facility (scales etc), and then a further 90 mins on something more musical - (pieces, transcriptions, etudes, or composing).
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
Performance, Performance, Peformance! I love to perform.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
As an improvising musician - my dream piece is something I am yet to imagine I think!
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Funny story - though the name for the Saxophone, was actually the word "Clarinet". So when I asked for a Clarinet, expecting to get a shiny, bendy, brass thing - I instead got a long, thin, black thing. So, from about 2004 - 2010 I was a clarinetist! Until I finally got around to purchasing my first saxophone in 2010, a beautiful 1939 Conn 10M.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
2019 pre-pandemic was a significant year for me. My original project, ARCING WIRES, a contemporary jazz/progressive rock band, toured across the globe, in the UK, France, Germany, Netherlands, Indonesia, and across 6 states in our home country of Australia.
In 2017, I also was a part of the Steve Barry Quartet, which was lucky enough to be billed as a opener for the fabulous Gerald Clayton Trio (piano - USA).
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
MANY!
Panamanian Piano virtuoso, Danilo Perez, was one of my more recently inspirational teachers. Learning from his vast experience across decades of performing at the very highest level was an incredible opportunity for me. Of course, I have to mention my first saxophone teacher, a gentleman in Sydney called Matt Keegan was also a huge influence on me as I was first starting to get serious in music.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Something psychology or physiology related! I am very interested in how the body adapts to playing an instrument, as well as the strategies and psychology of practice itself.
