Instruments: Piano Voice Organ Synthesizer Keyboard
I started teaching piano in other people's homes soon after I became a student at College of the Sequoias in Visalia, CA. Since I sang mostly at church, people asked me if their children could learn more about music from someone who has worked on it for a long time. By the time I went to Fresno State, I wasn't able to teach nearly as much, and probably needed teaching, myself! Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums Ukulele Recorder Music Keyboard Acoustic Guitar
My musical background and experience started my early years. My family and I sang together, in church, in school, and in shows and special events. I began studying singing and song leading with my father at age six, piano with my mother at age seven, and guitar with my cousin at age thirteen. Through the years, my love of music—performing, learning, teaching, and sharing has never waned. My college studies focused on voice, church music, and conducting, and my graduate work emphasized choral music performance, music education, theory, and history. Read More

I like to encourage my students using of examples of famous musicians that have always inspired me. Also,I believe that understanding and open communication between teacher and student is one of the keys to success! I think it is important for students ask me questions when they not really sure about something so that they go home being able to practice and understand better. I am a firm believer that practice will always make you better in pretty much any aspect of your life. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Music
My name is Marc and I am a choir teacher in Central California. As a motivated voice instructor, I enjoy working with all types of voices. As one of my voice teachers always stated, "Singing is a journey of self-discovery", and I get to help others on the journey. I have performed in various musical settings including musical theater, choir, opera, and with orchestra. I strive to make learning about the student (that makes learning more enjoyable, right?).

Instruments: Piano
For beginning students who are childern, I use Nancy Faber's Primer and Level One matieral. As soon as they develop a strong foundation using technique, theory, and a basic knowldege of what it means to play piano, I introduce them to a genre that they are passionate about for recital work: whether it is based on a movie, a favorite pop star, or a classical musician. For adult students, I work with Alfred Adult Basic Level One materials which give students a firm grasp on what it means to play the piano, technique, and theory. Read More

I believe that positive reinforcement is the best way to encourage my students to attain the confidence that is needed as a performer. Musical expression is a visceral experience and I strive to create a comfortable environment for my students. Because sometimes learning an instrument can be tedious, I like to break my lessons up with warmup, rudiment, etude and dexterity exercises; Scale and theory practices; repertoire development in multiple styles including original works; and finally improvisation and listening.

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
All of the teachers I have worked with from middle school all the way through college have inspired me in many different ways. However, the teachers that inspired me the most were my private lesson instructors in high school and college. I feel like one on one work with talented professionals throughout the past 8 years really jumpstarted my passion for music because of how personalized their teaching was to my specific way of learning.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
I find that effectively practicing different concepts and fundamentals is directly linked to how easily we can relate the practice to our own aspirations on the instrument. For this reason I always make sure to show students exactly what the practice of certain concepts will lead to in their own playing down the road and how it correlates to their personal goals. This way, students will be able to see the light at the end of the tunnel while staying inspired. Segmenting practicing is very important as well so there is always a clear idea of what you are trying to improve at in the time you have.
When will I start to see results?
The rate at which you see noticable results in playing and understanding concepts depends on many factors including, but not limited to: experience playing your instrument, early exposure to different genres of music, average amount of time consuming music per day, the difficulty of the concepts being worked on, age, stamina, amount of practice time, etc. When it comes to progressing on an instrument, everyone is different. Mastering a certain scale could take one person a few weeks and another person a full year. Every student has their strengths and weaknesses. As long as a beginner student does focused daily practice for just 30 minutes a day, it's possible for them to sound like a completely different player in as soon as a week.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Knowing if your child is ready to start taking lessons has nothing to do with their experience or abilities on their instrument and everything to do with their willingness to start learning about music. If they don't have an interest in learning music, putting them on a practice schedule could deter them from ever gaining an interest. On the other hand, putting a child that's already interested in music through lessons can skyrocket their passion and abilities.
