Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Organ Synthesizer
Every student is different. Music Theory, various styles and forms and performance are all important and part of the main focus. I also like them to learn songs and styles that they enjoy. It's important for them to pick up their instrument every day, develop their calluses and coordination. I find this not only encourages them to play and explore more on their own, but keeps their focus on developing their own style. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I started teaching piano 5 years ago. I love teaching and I love kids. Encouraging the kids to practice regularly at home is important. But also HOW to practice at home is as equally as important. Passion is contagious and I hope that my students can follow my passion. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I have a passion to not only perform music but also share with my students what I learned through my performance experiences. In 1994, I graduated from Asbury University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Piano Performance. In 1995, I graduated from the University of South Dakota with a Master of Music degree in Piano Performance. From February 2000 through June 2014, I have been a church organist at United Methodist Church in Romeo, MI, where I've only continued to learn about music. Read More
Instruments: Piano
Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. By having these realistic goals, students will feel greater accomplishment at what they achieved as I do not want to overwhelm the student with too much material or information. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Saxophone Drums Bass Guitar Recorder Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
My teaching style is laid back with the full intention of moving forward in both technique and enjoyment. Each Lesson is geared toward the Goals we agree on as Student and Teacher. Depending on age and experience, I set goals at 3 months or 6 months. It is crucial to allow the student to learn at his or her own rate. Again, I strive to find the Creativity in the Student and to see how that can be developed as quickly as possible, especially if they are interested in songwriting, singing, composition, or simply doing their "own thing".

I model my teaching from Ms Dorthy DeLay. The key to teaching is firm foundation but also a personable attitude and strong patience. If a student is having a hard time learning then I take the proper steps to make it clear and easy for them without the stress and anger of failure. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums
I first started really getting into music when I was 13 and started playing drums and guitar, picking up piano a couple years later. In 2005 I graduated from the Journeyman Program in Musical Performance at Musicians Institute in Hollywood California. Since then I've been trying my hand at different musical endeavors such as playing in bands, writing my own music, composing for indie games as well as doing covers of my favorite old video game songs.

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A normal practice session for instrumental lessons with your child typically follows a structured routine to help them develop their skills effectively. Here's a general outline of what a practice session looks like:
1. Warm-up: We usually start with a warm-up exercise to get your child's fingers and muscles ready for playing. This can include finger exercises, scales, or simple melodies to loosen up and improve finger dexterity.
2. Review: We'll spend some time reviewing the material from the previous lesson. This helps reinforce what they've learned and ensures they're building on a solid foundation.
3. New Material: Next, we'll introduce new concepts or techniques. This could involve learning a new piece of music, practicing specific technical exercises, or focusing on particular aspects of playing, such as dynamics, articulation, or timing.
4. Repetition and Technique: Repetition is key to improvement, so we'll work on sections of the music that need extra attention. We'll also focus on specific techniques and skills related to the instrument, like bowing techniques for string instruments or breath control for wind instruments.
5. Interpretation and Musicality: We'll explore the musicality of the piece, discussing elements like phrasing, dynamics, and expression. This helps your child bring their own personality and emotion to the music they're playing.
6. Sight-reading and Ear Training: To develop a well-rounded musician, we'll often include sight-reading exercises and ear training to improve their ability to read and interpret music on their own.
7. Performance Practice: Preparing for performances is an essential part of music education. We'll dedicate some time to practice performing the piece with confidence and precision.
8. Q&A and Feedback: Throughout the session, your child is encouraged to ask questions and seek clarification on any challenges they're facing. I'll provide constructive feedback to help them improve.
9. Goal Setting: We'll discuss short-term and long-term goals for your child's musical development. Setting achievable milestones can motivate them to practice consistently.
10. Cool Down: We'll finish the practice session with some relaxation exercises and a recap of what they've accomplished. This helps reinforce the positive aspects of their practice and sets a positive tone for their next session.
It's important to note that the duration and intensity of practice sessions may vary depending on your child's age, skill level, and individual goals. Regular, focused practice is essential for progress, and I'll work with your child to tailor their practice routine to their specific needs and abilities.
