Bridget H

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Bass Guitar

I started teaching two years ago at a private lesson studio in Denver called My Music Skool. My main focus was on piano and saxophone. Now I teach privately as a freelance musician. Two points I emphasize when teaching are practicing at least once a day no matter how long you play and learning what inspires you. There will always be some sort of theory I sneak in whether it's learning scales or building technical skills that will build confidence and ability, but if these devices aren't being applied to the type of music that inspires the student, then learning music becomes discouraging instead of fun.

Anna N

Instruments: Piano Flute Piccolo Keyboard

Since the age of 11, Anna Kate has held a tremendous passion for classical flute. It was her junior year of high school when she decided to pursue a career in music and started her journey by joining the Greater New Orleans Youth Orchestra, which toured in France, performing at large concerts in various cities. Subsequently she was accepted to the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts High School to further advance her studies in flute, requiring extensive time commitments of practicing five plus hours per day.

Richard S

Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet

I always explore different methods that might fit the age and personality of the student but for keyboard lessons I have found success with the Alfred Piano Method. Instrumental lessons usually follow the method book that is selected by their school band director. Beyond that I have a large library of supplementary music to expand the students interest with new styles and composers.I'm very flexible with the method books and after I get to know the student I can select a method that would work the best for instruction.

I have been playing guitar for over half of my life and have 5 years of teaching experience. I studied guitar performance at CU Denver and have extensive formal training in music theory and stage performance. My lessons are tailored to fit your needs as a musician of any kind. I'm comfortable teaching just about any style you can think of; some of my strongest styles are metal, jazz, fusion, rock and pop. Read More

I'm a passionate and motivated instructor who loves working with students and sharing my love of music!

I've played trombone since 1998 and have performed professionally since 2002 across the entire spectrum of genres and venues. Read More

Teresa W

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin Cello Viola Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet Drums Bass Guitar Synthesizer Recorder Electric Violin Fiddle Double Bass Euphonium French Horn Tuba Piccolo Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Oboe Bassoon English Horn

I believe in positive affirmation and goal setting. My goal with all students is that they enjoy learning, become self-motivated to practice, and consider their musical abilities as a gift which they can choose to share with others whenever they feel comfortable to do so. I have experience using a variety of method books and can easily recommend appropriate materials. I also encourage students to share with me and allow me to help them learn their favorite music, as well, even if that involves writing it out with or for them. Read More

Matthew G

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums Banjo Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

Naturally, my method will adapt to each student's needs. This will depend firstly on what style of music we are working to develop. Next, I will base my approach on the students level of abilities. There are a number of things to consider, such as technique, aural capacity, intuitive understanding, and basic theoretical knowledge, as well as each student's particular personality traits and best method of receiving information. I have a large repertoire of pedagogical literature and performance pieces. Read More

Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
My uncle plays. He’s in mid 70’s now but has the same band as when he was in high school. He taught my first chords and songs. Friends were very important as well for learning

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
Around 15 years old. I was on the fence for a while, but at that point there was no turning back. Once I got paid for it after college, I didn’t want to do anything else unless I has to

If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I play piano because I absolutely love the instrument. It’s classic and a real piano is dreamlike. It’s a challenge to master. 2 handed superstition is why it’s so difficult. Bass guitar , drums, because I love those too.

What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Jazz, because it’s highly creative. Like painting. When you improvise on jazz, you can incorporate everything that you have learned. Rock, country, blues, folk can all come out in it somewhere.

What is your dream piece to perform and why?
Inner urge by Joe Henderson. Because the melody is extremely challenging and the improvisation over the chords is very modern. It took me 6 moths to play it clean.

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Doggy day care or astronomer. It’s hard to say because this is all I know . I’ve lived the musician life. Started playing at 8 years old

Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
For guitar: my own handouts mostly. Hal Leonard guitar method. Piano: piano adventures, Suzuki, scale books. The real book for both instruments. I also have random handouts that I have photocopied from students through the years

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
3 hours a day , every day. Piano and guitar. Jazz mostly. I play with backing tracks

If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
Performance degree from Berklee college of music 1991. Graduated summa cum laude. I chose it because it was not an easy route. You had to prove yourself.

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My first guitar teacher took me from playing with friends- very basic ( where I did learn a lot) to going to Berklee college of music. He was amazing and I was very lucky to have him as a teacher.

Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Some of my students played at their graduations. Also went on to have careers in music. Most have gone into other fields , but music played an important part. A few of my students were at the top of their graduating class. One was valedictorian

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I learned how to become a jazz musician. A very hard thing to do. It takes as much work as becoming a scientist or highly skilled profession to play jazz well.

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
My uncle played guitar in a band. I was hooked immediately. He bought me my first electric guitar and the rest is history. I came from a strong arts community.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Follow the lesson plan exactly. Don’t rush through exercises. Use a metronome. Play in a quiet room with no distractions. Have a goal that you want to achieve and go for it. Have fun!

When will I start to see results?
That depends on the student. Also on home life/practice time. Don’t expect things too fast. This is a new thing for them and it takes time. Kids excel at different rates and surprise you at the their growth. They make “ leaps”, it’s not always in even increments.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
6 years old is usually old enough. Anyone can start regardless of ability as long as they can physically press fingers down on a piano or form a guitar chord

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Being able to accomplish all styles . It has to do with time. I can play rock, jazz, country , blues, fingerpicking, slide guitar, piano on a high level, bass guitar , drums ukulele. I also sing. They all took years of dedication.

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.
