Joshua S

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

Although my methods vary a bit depending on the instrument, the general plan is the same. For beginner students of instruments I focus first on fundamentals, such as finger placement, note names, what makes up chords so forth (again with a high emphasis on practice). I will gladly print out hard copies of chord sheets, note names, songs with chord markers if desired, or can display these digitally! For beginner students of voice, I start by teaching proper breathing, different parts of the voice, warm ups, and assessing the students vocal range. Read More

Alexandria S

Instruments: Piano Guitar Flute Piccolo Oboe Music Acoustic Guitar

For beginners, I start off with the basics. For example, naming each string on the guitar, curvature of the fingers, embouchure on the headjoint of a flute, and achieving a crow on an oboe reed. For school age children, I use books or sheet music used in their own practice at school or Youth Orchestras during lessons. For any ability level, I use any materials during lessons that my students want to work on that achieves their goals but also keeps them motivated. Read More

Jordan M

Instruments: Piano Voice

I am a passionate and motivated instructor. I have years of experience teaching children and adults of all ages and musical backgrounds. I work hard for my students to find opportunities with their singing, and set goals for their personal growth. I have worked with everyone from beginners to advanced and professional singers. I have prepped my students for successful auditions with American Idol, Americas Got Talent, and The Voice. Read More

Matt M

Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Bass Guitar Synthesizer Mallet Percussion Latin Percussion Music Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

For beginning students who are children, I typically start with Hal Leonard's Essential Elements. Once the student has started to grasp of the fundamentals, I will begin to introduce solo repertoire appropriate for their first recital performance. For adults, I try to find out what the student is interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and fun, no matter their ability level. I do try to maintain a balance of classical music, modern music, and music theory. Read More

M. Joy B

Instruments: Piano Voice Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion

I began teaching in high school and continued throughout college. Due to my experience and coursework in piano pedagogy techniques, I have a significantly high student retention rate. A combination of study and hands-on learning has increased my awareness of a student's individual needs. I have led choral ensembles and coached private students for music competitions. Read More

Nicole M

Instruments: Piano Voice

No two students are the same. I pride myself on catering to each individuals need and desire. I do give every student the same basic foundation, but after the foundation is set, the continued direction is entirely up to the student [parent]. In previous years, I've had students who wanted to be the next Beyonce, some who need better technique, and some who just wanted to build upon what they already had. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practice every day, even when you don't want to! The phrase "practice makes perfect" is true- the more you practice, the more skilled you'll become! It is important to practice a little every day. Studies show that if you practice a little each day, you'll be more skilled than if you were to practice everything in one day. This helps remember a little at a time. So don't wait until the last minute- practice for at least 10 minutes a day, and you'll be a pro in no time! I am happy to give you practice tips so you can meet all of your goals!

What is your dream piece to perform and why?
My favorite piece to perform was definitely "Habanera" from the opera, Carmen. Carmen is sassy and confident and embodies all a sassy opera star wishes to be! I got to use my entire vocal range and hone in on my acting skills. It was the first piece I performed in Master Class in college, and I was so shy to get up on stage. After performing, I felt so much more confident and was able to perform any piece because I had gotten over the hump! This piece will always be special to me and will hold an important place in my heart!

If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I chose my degree, Bachelor of Arts in Music, because it was the most versatile. My school only had a degree in classical voice, and I wanted to study a wide range of styles. I did not desire to be an opera singer, and I did not want my focus to only be on classical voice. I learned piano and guitar and practiced all styles of music- including classical, opera, musical theatre, pop, jazz, and rock. This made me more knowledgeable of different types of music, and it made me realize that the same fundamentals of vocal technique apply to each style of singing!

Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I am incredibly proud of my student, Yana. She has won multiple awards in voice for multiple categories! She entered the American Protege competition and won first place in classical voice with the song "Nel Cor Piu Non Mi Sento". Additionally, she competed in many different categories- including self-accompaniment, pop, and musical theatre. I teach a wide variety of styles of voice and will teach you how to accompany yourself on piano and guitar, so you can go out there and start winning awards and competitions, too!

Beyond the actual drum kit, there are quite a few accessories, percussion instruments, and pieces of hardware that no drummer should do without. Below are the drum accessories every drummer should have: Mallets – it doesn’t matter if the tip is coated with felt or yarn, both work just fine, but a good pair of mallets can help add a touch of finesse to one’s playing. Brushes – there are several different varieties of brushes, made from plastic or wire. Both produce slightly different results, but they are both substantially quieter and more delicate than playing with sticks. Brushes are a must for jazz drummers.
