Zoe K

Instruments: Piano Voice Trombone

I believe lessons should be fun and engaging. I believe the most improvement in a student comes from practice time, so my goal as a teacher is to show the student how to practice most effectively by applying what they learned in their lessons in their practice sessions. If it is all right with them, we can record the lesson so they can go back and watch. As a teacher, I believe it is important to be positive and supporting, giving constructive criticism guide the student to play better while also boosting the student's confidence. Read More

Anne R

Instruments: Piano Bass Guitar

My experience as a musician goes back to when I tinkered around on an organ as a young child, then continued when I started formal piano lessons. As an adult, I have performed on bass guitar in two bands and participated on an ongoing basis in church worship bands, which involves learning a new set of songs for every service. During college, I began as a music major and received further training on piano as well as took three semesters of music theory courses. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin Trumpet Fiddle French Horn Electric Guitar

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing my students develop a passion for music, so it's important that each student progresses at their own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. Read More

Nicole M

Instruments: Piano

I started playing when I was 5 years old and was taught through Suzuki format. It teaches students to learn by ear and that really made a difference in my style of playing. I started writing my own compositions at 13 years old and that is what made me want to learn more. All through highschool I continued to play and eventually got a small album together. I have played for many weddings and special occasions and even for convalescenthospitals. Read More

Jay Jay W

Instruments: Piano

My goal is always to encourage students through their musical journey by honing in on their strengths while also addressing areas they can improve upon. At each lesson, I make very clear goals for each student to work on for their next meeting with me. I always like to supplement their lesson material with music that speaks to the student's interest, be that something more jazzy or from a pop artist. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Haley M

Instruments: Piano Music Keyboard

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Always practice for at least a consecutive hour a day. My personal go to is to learn one hand, then the other, then play the song at a slow pace with a metronome so you can get the style down. Once you've done that, start speeding up to the tempo of the song until you can play the entire thing! I prefer to memorize my music, but if you must use the sheet, have someone turn the pages for you or learn good times to turn the page yourself. Usually it's best to memorize the passages right before and after the page turn so you can find a good break and don't mess up the piece.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Do they have an interest in piano? Are they capable of learning new things on their own? Do they have the fortitude to not give up when they make mistakes? Generally, if they are motivated to learn and desire to do so, they are ready! Being in a supportive environment even when they make mistakes is also crucial to a child's ability to stay at the instrument.

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The most difficult thing to master is playing both hands at once in time with each other (or something offset with each other). I recommend when learning to play that you start with Heart and Soul to get the feel of your left hand moving separately from your right hand. If you practice enough, you will get the feel for it and be prepared for more advanced pieces. There are also finger exercises for left and right hand movement to help the student overcome this difficulty.

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
My biggest accomplishment was memorizing Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata to perform at a recital. I practiced that song for nearly a year and performed with various other students at our yearly recital. It's 201 measures long with 3 parts and takes about 15 minutes to play. To this day that is the longest piece I've memorized in it's entirety.

When will I start to see results?
If you or your child are learning, being able to show off small songs and scales should be fairly quick. The early days are very important for learning fingering and reading sheet music. Once the student has an understanding of the basics, learning a small song is just around the corner. I would say a few weeks to months (depending on how often lessons are) they should be ready for their first small performance!

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.
