Instruments: Piano Drums
Seeing people pick up an instrument and learning to create music has always been really cool. I learned to play the drums at age 11, and after taking piano classes in high school, I went to Cal Poly Pomona to study music composition. It was during this time that I began providing lessons in both instruments to students of all ages. The best part for me is always that moment when it clicks with the student. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I create a custom lesson plan for each student, as every voice is different, and everyone comes with a different set of goals in mind. Every student can expect to be asked what their goals are, whether they are just to have fun and sing, work towards competing in local competitions, or to audition for a choir or show, and lessons and repetoire will be based on those goals. Every student can also expect to do do basic vocal exercises at every lesson to warm up their voice, and to more effectively teach technique and gauge progress. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Drums Ukulele
My teaching style is goal-oriented and centers on positive reinforcement. This should be fun, not a chore. I love creating weekly/monthly/yearly goals so the student has something tangible to work towards. That might be a showcase for parents, a more formal recital, or an audition for a group! Each student brings a unique perspective to the lesson room, which is what makes it so exciting for me. No two students are the same, which mean I can learn something from the student as well.

Instruments: Piano Voice
I have an arsenal of exercises and tools that I apply as needed for each student, and generally give each student an overview with lots of reinforcement in subsequent lessons at my concepts of technique. Generally each lesson involves vocalese - scales, triads, increasing in difficulty as appropriate and based on individual areas of need, followed by work on the repertoire. We work a lot with sheet music and a keyboard or piano is needed for the work. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I'm a kind and dedicated instructor who enjoys working with all types of students and sharing the gift of music. In 2004, I graduated from Biola University with a minor in music. I studied under Manami Kawamura, an accomplished and amazing pianist. I have since continued my studies in music and have played at church and other venues. My students are what inspire me and fuel my musical endeavors. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Synthesizer Keyboard
Hi! Thanks for stopping by my page! My name is Kevin, I grew up in Germany and moved to LA recently to broaden my horizon as a musician and teacher, bringing as much joy as possible to people who love music. I graduated from University of Performing Arts Munich Germany in Jazz performance, as a piano major. I had the wonderful honor of playing with a lot of amazing musicians all around Europe. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin
I start with the basics and for young students do nursery rhymes and songs they know,this makes it more enjoyable for them. I also ask them what music they would be interested in learning and see if I can find an easy version of this. Lately,the Encanto movie has been popular and Ive been teaching younger students these songs. Many of my teen students like to learn Beethoven and other classical composers. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Trumpet Saxophone Drums Mallet Percussion
When will I start to see results?
I can site results immediately. The best way to determine if your are making progress is to record oneself on a daily or weekly basis. Then go back to listen to the musical performance. I do this in my studio every day with several instruments I play and music I'm comping. Recording is the best mirror. As a teacher I can provide a perspective to a student, but the best answer is what your ears hear.
I notice results in my progress, by developing calluses on my fingers while playing guitar or strengthening my embouchure while playing Trumpet or Tenor sax. A small amount of muscular pain is a good thing. As long as you do not stress out the muscles the feeling of progress can be noticed through the repetition playing a musical instrument requires.
Perhaps the best way to notice results is how much one hears after a period of time. If you remember what you could grasp a year prior to the moment you realize your ability to hear music has grown, believe me it will be noticed.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
I have seen music help children who are unable to concentrate and focus. If a child is filled with energy music can be one of the best sedatives. If a child shows an interest in music I highly recommend encouraging this. Learning how to read music has been a great asset for many in terms of learning other important life skills. If a person does not go onto a professional career in music, the time one spends with music will aid one in all kinds of situations. I wrote music for a documentary where children of low soci- economic means used drum circles to calm their pain. Many of these children has seen and suffered things most children never experience. The transformation was magical. Just beating on a drum for 30 minutes a day had very positive results.
For that experince alone I say your child should do music just as they do athletics. It is the proper balance in life.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Use whatever inspires one to spend the time alone that it takes to achieve their goal. Start off crawling before you walk and finally learn to run. Practicing something fast and making mistakes will result in playing those same mistakes forever.
Patience. Transcribing music from any place you hear it is best . Singing the melodies is even better.
Some students need a rigid routine, others are inspired by changing their routines. It does not matter. Getting into your space to practice is all that matters. Finding a place to focus and do the hard exercises over and over again will pay off.
