Piano Lessons in Rosedale, LA

Instruments: Piano Guitar Cello

For beginning cello students who are children, I typically start with Suzuki method elements. Once the student has progressed to have a 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. For guitar students, I usually apply my lessons accordingly with their genre of interest. Read More

I believe that music should be FUN! To that end I tailor all my lessons to meet each student's individual needs. Not everyone learns the same way, however I believe that students should receive the following components in their lessons: ear training (being able to hear whether they are playing correctly), sight-reading (being able to read the written notes, music theory (writing reading the written notes on a page), and technique (playing on the instrument).

Instruments: Piano

My methods vary according to the students interests and development. But I also have a guideline of references. For the beginners, I like to use Faber Faber, Boris Berlin's Four Stars, and some Alfred's piano methods. As we go to intermediate, I focus mostly on repertoire, sight reading, harmonization and, if the student likes, some improvisation. The books vary according to the student. For advanced players, the focus is in the repertoire, so probably we will be using performance editions for the repertoire, with preference for the Urtext (original text) ones. Read More

Always try to have my students sing what they love, when they do so, the put their 110% into it, instead of having to do it because they are told so, and it reflects in their practice time as well.
