I've had the opportunity to play in various concert halls in the DFW area, including the Fort Worth Modern Art Museum, the Fort Worth Woman's Club, Nicholas Martin Hall, and Alkek Recital Hall. I also had the distinct privilege of being selected by mayor Betsy Price to serve as a musical delegate in the Sister Cities signing agreement between Fort Worth and Guiyang, China. Read More

Abbie F

Instruments: Piano Acoustic Guitar

Each student learns at their own pace, therefore goals are set individually for each student.  Students need to have a passion for learning music, therefore I try to create a fun, patient environment in order for children to learn.  I believe in setting goals and acknowledging when an accomplishment is made to reinforce the desire to learn. Regular practice is encouraged and incentivized if needed because practice is a necessary habit in learning and furthering development.

Lauriann C

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Recorder

I began teaching while I was still a student at the Conservatory of Music in the 1990's I was Voice Teacher at the Intermezzo Music School in Guaynabo, PR. I taught all ages from 7 - 69. I stayed there for 7 years. I also gave private singing lessons to students at my own home in Carolina, PR. And then, I proceded to give voice lessons at different churches like the Methodist Church (where I also founded and directed the choir), Evangelical Church (where I gave voice lessons at the Biblical Institute to prospect Worship Leaders).

Andrew S

Instruments: Piano Organ

My experience with teaching began during my undergraduate studies. I have worked with students in the classroom teaching elementary music as well as at the middle school and high school level teaching choir. In addition, I have taught my closest friends in piano and organ. While I was the staff accompanist at a high school, I taught the treble choir and gave piano and voice lessons during off-periods. I have thoroughly enjoyed teaching, especially when I see that students are inspired by music and are willing to take on the task of mastering their craft. Read More

Kasey K

Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin Viola Bass Guitar Harmonica Mandolin Electric Violin Fiddle Double Bass

My teaching experience spans 6 years. I've taught all ages, so I'm comfortable with everybodys learning pace. In college I studied under the Latin Grammy award winning La Catrina Quartet, and I hope to pass down the knowledge I gain from that experience to my students. With my students, I take them step by step through were they are as a musician, to were they need to be. My experience working in ensembles will also expand my students ability to play in groups of all sizes (which will often happen). Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Richard S

Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Organ Synthesizer Accordion Music

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My first teacher, (from 8 until I was 12), was a very sweet, older man, who did a wonderful job teaching me the basics. I was a bit sad and surprised when he told me he had taught me everything he could, and that it was time for me to find a more advanced teacher. My second teacher was a professional studio and television musician. He inspired me to perform and work with other musicians. By the time I was 16, I was playing weddings and other well paid gigs, as well as playing in the studio and with several bands. I teach my students, no matter what age, the music they like. I know that a student will practice more, and get more enjoyment from playing the type of music they like. Yes I play and teach every genre from old fashioned country to progressive Hip Hop, and everything in between, including rock and roll, Mozart, Beethoven and Michael Jackson.

When will I start to see results?
If the student practices you'll see results very quickly. If not they'll go slowly or just stay in the same place. I will not continue to teach a student who does not practice. My cardinal rule is, if I have to teach you the same lesson, 3 times, because you didn't practice, I will fire you as a student. I don't like to teach the same lesson over and over, and I feel like I'm stealing money for doing nothing, and I have a moral problem with that. Again, you get out of music lessons, what you put in.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
I feel it is important to practice soon after a lesson. The next day at the latest. If not the student will, most likely, forget some, if not all of the lesson. Many students seem to wait until the day of the lesson, to practice the last lesson. This is a set up for failure. You are better off practicing 20 minutes a day, than an hour and a half on one day. Students need to stop, if they're having trouble with a certain measure, and analyze and work on that measure. Just playing through the song, as best as you can, not stopping to fix or correct mistakes, is really not practicing.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
It depends upon the child. With very young children, attention span is sometimes a problem. Understanding some basic math and fractions is quite helpful. I've taught several children fractions. I have taught a 3 1/2 year old successfully, using color. Whenever I'm asked to teach a child younger than 6 years, I set up an evaluation lesson. I can generally see, pretty quickly, if we should start lessons. If your child is interested in listening to the sound of things vibrating. When I was 4 years old, I would take our oven wire rack, put it up to my ear, and pluck it like a harp. I remember to this day, how good the sound made me feel. I was able to start lessons when I was 8.

...of all time. In my previous blog post, we went over some of the most well-known saxophone solos in pop music. Few solos are as well-known as the “Born to Run” saxophone solo. For this article, I’m going to take a specific song (“Born to Run”) and go over the ensemble parts as well as the solo, and go over some general tips for transcribing similar material.

Music Lessons for Kids: How Young is Too Young?

...to ask yourself the following questions as the parent or guardian regarding your child before enrolling them in music lessons for kids:   Is my child able to sit and focus for a 30+ minute lesson? Most music lessons for kids, especially very young ones, will last for 30 minutes, though some teachers prefer longer sessions (sometimes up to an hour). Even 30 minutes can be extremely difficult for a young child to sit through attentively. However, if you’re worried that your child might not be able to sit and focus through an entire lesson, that doesn’t necessarily mean that lessons won’t be successful. I would recommend ...

Soloing Over Blues Changes

...much harmonic motion as possible. The first chord can also be a Imaj7. I threw a couple of different advanced progressions in this example. The first four bars use “the cycle”. What “the cycle” refers to is the cycle of fourths. In one of my first articles, we talked about root movements for practicing. An example would be practicing your major scales around the cycle of fourths: C, F, Bb, Eb, etc. You can use the cycle when soloing over blues changes. You start on the bII chord and go around the cycle. This way, you hit the IV7 chord on the fifth bar. ... Read More

Apply yourself to learning to play the piccolo in its own right, and you can become a specialty player on this fun instrument.   The Alto Flute The alto flute has many predecessors, dating back through the Renaissance. As flute makers worked to increase the range of the flute, they tried designs for a lower toned flute in Bb, A, Ab, G, F, Eb, and C. The development of the alto flute was also complicated for physical reasons. Lengthening the flute meant expanding the distance between the key holes, as well as between the embouchure hole and the keys, making it difficult for ... Read More

Life is hectic! Most students may also be attending school or working. As a result, sometimes we grab a quick snack or maybe drink a quick coffee during our busy day. Take a moment before lessons to take a deep breath, stretch out, and make sure you have everything you need. For all lessons, drinking a bottle of water is a great way to keep yourself hydrated and brushing your ... Read More

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.

Ok

Are you sure that's your only availability? The more availability you easier it will be to arrange a teacher for you.
