Shuyi H

Instruments: Piano

For beginning students, I choose Alfred's Basic Piano Library and Faber Piano Adventures, and other brands/materials that fits the need of the student. I often made teaching materials myself, as well as writing music for my students. The most important thing for beginners are keeping interest and correct postures. Starting from songs the student recognize usually helps. For advance students, I usually recommend repertoire covering all 4 classical periods, plus etudes and finger trainings. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Music Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I start my beginning students with Alfred guitar method. If someone wants classical lessons I start them with the Fredrick Noad books and some Sor and Segovia studies. For people interested in improvisation we begin with Blues and then take it where you want to go. Advanced students I give more master class type lessons where we discuss more advanced music ideas.

Instruments: Piano Voice Drums Music Keyboard

For most of my beginning piano students, I use the piano adventures series. They offer a clear and well paced curriculum with numerous supplemental resources in a variety of styles. For beginning music theory, I use the Berklee School of Music texts or the Benward and Saker textbooks as well as many videos and other resources to explore musical concepts. For singing, I use a variety of sight singing books, all depending on the age and experience of the student. Read More

Robert A

Instruments: Piano Keyboard

Throughout my years in Colorado, I worked several years as a volunteer music teacher assistant. During this time, I worked with children from as little as preschool all the way up to 7th graders and got them engaged in a musical environment. After this, I began teaching private piano lessons to close individuals who wanted to introduced to the instrument. I find so much joy in engaging and motivating the students and I am very excited to continue teaching more students in the bay area. Read More

James D

Instruments: Piano Voice

For beginners I will start with a reputable system of books, such as Hal Leonard or Alfred's, supplemented by my own worksheets and song selections that are relevant to the student. For more advanced students I will use my own open method, finding songs that the student is eager to play and reinforcing the theory and techniques that will enable the student to advance quickly.

Aaron M

Instruments: Piano Trumpet

Acknowledging accomplishments is an ideal way to motivate a student to improve. While critiquing a student's weaknesses is something a teacher should do, celebrating the positive moments in playing can help engrave good habits. Whether you are trying to learn for fun or trying to get into the college of dreams for music, I am able to cater my teaching style to the needs of the student and this makes music fun for everyone!

I am passionate when it comes to music and I believe it is an essential part of life. Students should have some form of music in there life because of the positive effects it has on the mental state. I have played trumpet for twelve years, during this time I have played in several ensembles such as; ACSI Honor Band, ACSI Honor Orchestra, University of the Pacific Concert Band, U.O.P's Pep Band etc. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Joshua V

Instruments: Drums

Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
This all depends on my students. There are many amazing drum books out there and I will use them based upon what the student wants to learn, as well as thier strenghts and weaknesses. Sometimes, I do not use books. I simply put together exercises based upon the student's learning style.

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing to master is independence between limbs. Perhaps equally as hard is kowing how ti play appropriately .As a drummer, we are the pulse of the band, but we also must know when to NOT play so much and when to support the band and/or vocalist.

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I have traveld all over this country performing. I've played at famous venues like The Whiskey A-Go Go in Hollywood, The Stone Pony in Asbury Park, NJ, The Half Moon in London, UK, and the Count Baise Theater on Redbank, NJ and so many great places in between. My proudest accomplishment though is simply having been a part of so much great music.

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
my first teachers where my uncles. All of my uncles could either sing or play an instrument. They taught me how to play in a band. How to listen and when to lead. To say that I appreiciate them is a gross understatement.

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I love the dynamic range of the drums. They can be so delicately quiet and then powerfully loud. The drums control the way an audience moves. I also believe the instrument simply fits my personality. A drumset, and the person playing it, can not be ignored. They are big, they catch the light. Yet in most popular genres of modern music, the drums are supportive and almost in the background.

When will I start to see results?
Everyone progresses differently, so it's hard to say when results will become obvious. However, my goal is to get my students making music, even if it is at a very basic level, as quickly as possible. I usually see this happen within a couple of lessons.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
The hardest part about practicing is simply starting. Anything worth doing is worth dedicating time to. So, schedule the time, stick to that time, set goals and utilize video or audio recordings to monitor your progress.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If they are excited about the drums, they are ready!m I don't believe that any one is ever too young or too old to start learning an instrument. All you need is the passion to do it.

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.
