Instruments: Piano Flute Piccolo Music Keyboard
Teaching is very new to me. For beginning students I would start with a Hal Leonard's Essential Elements book. Then when the student progresses the fundamentals I will start to introduce solo pieces for recital performance. For adults I will ask them what would be fun for them to play and make my lesson plans off of that to keep them engaged and having fun no matter what level they are. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Violin Cello Viola Mandolin Recorder Orchestral Percussion Music
It is my joy seeing my students learn from me and become successful in their musical journey. I help my students discover and develop their skill and talent in music. I always encourage my students to go beyond their comfort zone; to show their talents in music, and to share it to the community. I also incorporate games in my teaching. I also give my students an opportunity to choose the music they want to learn and teach it to get their interest. Read More

I always use variety of method books depending on the capability of each student in grasping the instructions. I have a syllabus that I am following base on the Music Teacher's Association syllabus in preparation for a Certificate of Merrit examination. And for those younger students that are not ready yet in taking the Statewide Music examination, a Royal School of Music syllabus is what I am using in order for our studies to be on track. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I began instructing young adults in harmony, theory and piano when I was nineteen in Oakville, Ontario, Canada. After high school, I began putting my poetry to music and this led to a move to California to try and make it as a songwriter. I played with several music acts in the Bay Area, toured the east coast and Midwest, and wrote music for the theater, notably an original score for Bertolt Brecht's Caucasian Chalk Circle. Read More
Instruments: Piano
My name is David Herscowitz, and I've been playing the piano since 1985 and teaching since 2005. I grew up in Los Angeles and moved to Oakland in 2012. I attended the Alexander Hamilton High School Academy of Music in Los Angeles and received my BA in Music from U.C. Santa Barbara. Making music (especially with other musicians) is my favorite thing to do, and teaching others the gift of music comes in a close second! Read More
Instruments: Piano Flute
In addition to working with standard repertoire and method books, I devise my own exercises to help with breath control, tone production, rhythm, aural skills, and other topics. I dedicate particular time and attention to the areas where I believe each individual student can benefit the most (e.g., tone quality, counting, etc.). For young students, I like to incorporate music games and improvisation into my teaching, both of which help the student develop essential musical skills in a fun, relaxed way. Read More

I am a laid-back, patient, fun teacher, who is always looking for new ways to motivate and inspire her students. Before anything, I make sure my students are comfortable with me and relaxed. I am nurturing and creative in my lessons and aim to build my students' confidence and pride in their musical achievements while teaching self-discipline so that they will reach and celebrate many milestones. I love music, and I love helping spread that passion to my students. Read More

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Determining if your child is ready to start lessons, whether it's for music, sports, or any other skill, involves considering several factors. Here are some key indicators to help you assess their readiness:
1. Interest and Enthusiasm: Is your child showing a genuine interest in the activity? Do they express excitement or curiosity about learning it? Eagerness is a positive sign.
2. Age-Appropriateness: Consider your child's age and developmental stage. Some activities may have age recommendations, so make sure your child is within the suggested age range.
3. Attention Span: Assess your child's ability to focus and concentrate. Most lessons require a certain level of attention and patience. If your child can sit still and pay attention for the duration of the lesson, it's a good sign.
4. Physical Readiness: Depending on the activity, your child may need certain physical abilities or coordination. For example, they should be able to hold a pencil if they want to start drawing or be able to handle a musical instrument properly.
5. Emotional Readiness: Consider your child's emotional maturity. Are they able to handle constructive criticism and setbacks without becoming overly discouraged or frustrated?
6. Responsibility: Some activities require regular practice and commitment. Assess whether your child is responsible enough to follow through with lessons and practice routines.
7. Support from the Child: Ideally, your child should express a desire to learn and participate in the activity. Their enthusiasm and willingness to attend lessons and practice are good indicators.
8. Parental Support: Evaluate your own readiness and willingness to support your child in their chosen activity. Are you prepared to provide the necessary resources, transportation, and encouragement?
9. Time Commitment: Consider your family's schedule and whether you can realistically accommodate the time required for lessons, practice, and any related activities or competitions.
10. Consult with Professionals: If you're uncertain, it's often a good idea to consult with professionals or instructors who specialize in the activity your child is interested in. They can provide insights and recommendations based on their expertise.
Remember that every child is unique, and readiness for lessons can vary widely from one individual to another. It's essential to support your child's interests and aspirations while being attentive to their individual abilities and needs. Starting with a trial or introductory lesson can also help you gauge their readiness and interest in a particular activity before committing to a long-term schedule.
