Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Ukulele Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I certainly have adopted the teaching styles of my previous and current instructors, each bringing a unique approach to teaching an instrument. Patience and understand is crucial with any students, and there needs to be a lot of fun and excitement within a lesson, otherwise, what is the point? Now, fun and excitement must also be met with serious practice time and great concentration during a lesson. My objective is to create a comfortable environment fertile for learning, while at the same time having my students know there are skills to refine and concepts to solidify. Read More

Instruments: Piano

For beginners, I generally stick with the Faber Method books, as I enjoy their unity of music theory and practical application more than other method series. It is my goal to remove students from methods as soon as possible- somewhere around early intermediate skill level, so that we may engage with more meaningful repertoire from the 'greats', as well as give the students the tools to take agency over their own repertoire choices, including transcriptions of popular media.

Instruments: Piano

My teaching experience dates back to my high school days, as I began teaching private lessons. I have been consistently teaching piano students in my home studio for the last 5 years. I use practice incentives to encourage regular practice as it helps students progress. My studio hosts a yearly recital where students can showcase their talent for family and friends. I incorporate music theory and history into each leason as well as composition. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice Flute

I have been teaching for 30 years. The exciting thing is that private music lessons provides an opportunity to get to know students on an individual level. This means that each lesson is unique, and each student has lessons tailored to them. Getting to know what makes a student tick or understand is a highlight of my day! They often laugh at me because I have to ask what they are doing, and that I don't know off the top of my head because there are so many different things my students are doing. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Flute Music Keyboard Acoustic Guitar

I believe in teaching music that the student wants to learn, whether that's the latest pop song or basic music theory which can be applied to any style. For my piano students, I prefer Alfred's piano curriculum. For my guitar students, I use Hal Leanord books. For my voice students, we work on whatever songs they want to learn or have assigned to them for a performance. For flute, I like Rubank method, but am open to other preferred methods as well.

Teacher In Spotlight

Breanne J

Instruments: Piano Voice Music

When will I start to see results?
It is individual to each student, but I would like to confidently say that after three to four lessons you should start hearing results! It is all about singing in a healthy way, and perfection is unrealistic, so don't be disheartened if it doesn't sound exactly like you want it to sound right away.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
As someone who is really bad about practicing herself, the advice I have is to split it up into chunks. Pick certain skills to work on each day, don't just sing through the piece as soon as you get it. Start by listening to it a few times to get it in your head, then go over the diction and look up any words you don't know. Then, figure out the story of the song. What are you singing about? Then, start the singing process. If you split this up over a week of practice, it will be a lot more effective than just cramming it all into one practice session. For piano practice, I strongly encourage putting in at least 30 minutes a day of practice. Piano can take a long time to learn, and it can be frustrating to mess up (believe me, I've been there). Practicing for at least half an hour a day will make a whole lot of difference, and make you more prepared for your lesson. It is a lot about muscle memory for piano.

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I have taken piano and guitar as well, but voice is the instrument that I am the best at and most importantly, enjoy the most! I took piano for a long time, but just didn't have the passion for it that I have for voice, and I found it much more difficult, so that is why I chose voice! I have also self-taught myself guitar, but I use that mostly for songwriting! (Feel free to ask me about that during lessons as well!)

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My voice teacher back when I was between the ages of 10-18 inspired me to pursue music! She always believed in me and my abilities, and gave me a great foundation for entering college. She went to Indiana University, as well, so that is how I had even heard of the college in the first place.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
There isn't a yes or no answer to this question, but I would say once your child is at least 10 years old, and has shown some kind of passion for music/singing, then they are ready to start! A beginning student wouldn't need to have to start learning really complicated pieces or techniques, it is just baby steps at the beginning! For piano, I think that any age is appropriate to start! I know some kids who have started as young as toddlers!

More Information About Piano Lessons

  • Lessons in Your Home

    Taking piano lessons from the comfort of your own home is the most convenient way of learning to the play the instrument. All you need for your lessons is a piano or keyboard to play on! Home lessons remove the hassle of transporting your child to and from their lessons, and can be fitted around busy work schedules more readily. Whether the lesson takes place in-home or in the studio, the content remains the same. Home piano lessons are a particularly good option for younger students. It is a big advantage for young students to learn in a familiar, comfortable, and supportive environment.

  • What is Taught

    The content of each lesson is determined by the ability and experience level of each individual student. For students just starting off, the foundations of piano playing will start to be laid. This includes learning to read music and chord charts, learning their way around the piano, and learning simple scales and chords. Students can put these new skills to use through simple, entry level compositions. For intermediate pianists, they will develop some of the finer arts to piano playing, such as modulation, developing speed, and combining a wider array of chords, such as augmented and slash chords. They will also get to work on their sight reading and playing more challenging songs. Advanced students may wish to work on their improvisational skills, develop their repertoire, or study a specific genre or style of playing, such as Jazz, Baroque, or Blues. Regardless, all students will experience the joys of piano playing.

  • Piano Lessons for Kids

    Children are recommended to start piano lessons no earlier than age 4 or 5. The attention span and personality of the child are factors to consider when thinking of taking lessons. Even if your child has no evident musical inclinations, piano lessons offer a great option for introducing your child to music. During their lessons children will learn sight reading, music theory techniques, ear training as well as fundamentals of music.

Soloing Over Rhythm Changes

This is what’s called a “chord tone solo”. The idea is to create a solo using only chord tones (1357). My example is very basic. When practicing chord tone solos, you can use the notes in any order and should use more rhythmic variation in order to create rhythmic interest.     This example is a basic 1357 digital pattern used over the bridge.   When you’re playing chord tone solos, you ...
