Art H

Instruments: Piano Accordion

Depending on where my student's are at their piano studies, i would start them from that point . For beginners, i like to introduce them to the "Alfred's Basic Piano Series." I teach my student's from day one basic music theory along with their lesson. As they progress, so does the theory part progress. For intermediate to advance student's it would pretty much be the same as above. Except, now i will introduce chord structure, advance theory, and start to teach them melodies by ear so that they might be able to create their own melody. Read More

Sydney Rose C

Instruments: Piano Voice

I love watching my students develop their passion for music! And so, I do my utmost to challenge each student as much as possible at their own pace. We will set goals for the students in every lesson. Hitting certain milestones help the students to feel motivated, and want to push themselves more. Each student is different and so they learn differently, I do my best to learn from the student and tailor my teaching style to their particular learning style. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums Bass Guitar Conga Electric Guitar Djembe Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

No matter the skill level, I like to keep my curriculum concise, applicable, and easy for all students to understand. I begin with a crash course in music fundamentals to give students a classical understanding of their playing, reading, and writing techniques. Next, I teach them scales, chords, and playing techniques that correlate with their level of playing and music comprehension. Once they have mastered said curriculum I teach them songs that they are genuinely interested in. Read More

Michael R

Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone

For beginners, I start with a mixture of the Suzuki method and the Essential Elements book. I find that combining ear training while simultaneously developing the ability to read music only accelerates the learning process. Teaching adults of any level are all about assessing interests and goals. I find out where the interest in creativity lies in every individual and work on developing that so the lessons remain fun and fulfilling. Read More

Andy L

Instruments: Piano Voice

I began teaching private piano lessons in the fall of 2015. I have taught both adults and children, and have found the experience very rewarding, especially with adult learners. I got my own start in music very late, and was actively discouraged in my youth from pursuing it--so one of my main goals as an educator is to motivate students and encourage them that they can still be performers. Working with children has also been very rewarding, and has taught me that it is just as important to have fun when you're making music. Read More

Instruments: Piano

I have a 20+ years experience in teaching piano, and a classroom Music teacher as well. Music Theory is my forte and started to develop reading skills and teaching with the aid of technology. I started playing piano in our church when I was in 6th grade, that's when I realized that Everyone has a talent of something they can contribute to the world, It is also important to know that we are all given different talents to use at different times.

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.
