Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet
I'm a gentle person who believes in exposing my students to the best music, and bringing out of them the music they have within. The idea is to ease their frustrations, not add to them. As long as the student actually tries, I feel confident they will enjoy the wxperience and learn a great deal. Music is one of life's greaat pleasures and worth every bit of the effort required to do it well. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
For beginning students, we start with simple scales, fingering patterns, short melodies, and based on that student’s needs and learning style, I decide which lesson plan to use (Suzuki, Hal Leonard, etc.). I use Tonal Harmony textbook excerpts to help with advanced theory lessons. More advanced singers receive more training in classical and musical theater technique. My philosophy is that every singer should be trained classically first. Early art songs and arias really help students focus on breath control, vowel shape, using their passagio, and expressive singing. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
I'm a fun loving musician who enjoys sharing my passion for music with my students. I graduated from the College of Wooster with a Bachelor of Music degree in Vocal Performance and then Florida State University with a Masters of Music in Choral Conducting. Music has opened many doors both professionally and personally. I have had the opportunity to tour up and down the east coast while performing with 16 voice professional choir and met my wife through a choir we both were singing in. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin
Its so easy to put too much pressure on students and cause the classic burn out that so many musicians have experienced at some point or another. So Im very conscious of how my students are feeling and noticing the difference between the need for instructive support and the need for encouragement. I like to end every lesson with three questions. What did you learn today? What can you improve on this week? Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums Bass Guitar Ukulele Double Bass Keyboard Acoustic Guitar
I have the same approach to teaching beginner and intermediate piano. Again, we learn our notes in five finger position and then we learn to read time signatures, notes in the treble clef, chords, and rhythms, as well as playing complete songs. When teaching piano for beginners I like to pick the leaning material that we'll use based on the individual because we all learn differently and I like to keep it fun so the student stays interested.

Instruments: Piano
I am a professional solo pianist and accompanist with extensive experience on musical events and collaborations in philharmonics, orchestras and choirs. I have rich experience in piano teaching for private and group lessons focused on beginners. I am a passionate, ambitious and enthusiastic person with excellent communication, coordination and fast sight-reading skills. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Ukulele Recorder Double Bass Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I am in my late 40's, married, and the father of a crazy 9-year-old daughter. I started studying music on piano at the age of five with my mother (also a musician). I move from piano to alto sax, and continued to play it through to college, later switching to tenor. At age twelve, I started playing electric bass and have continued up to the present day. I started on acoustic bass at fifteen, and guitar when I was 30 years old. Read More

What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
My favorite genre of music is classical, especially romantic era like Chopin, Schumann, Rachmaninoff. I sometimes play or listen to jazz like telenious monk or ella fitzgerald too, but i choose classical over them because i never get tired of them n listen to them every single day. Music gives me joy, comfort, tears, heart warming n pounding all together. I have to listen to them every single day to survive, especially on my sad or depressing days. Think about it! Why would people use music for all those different occasions? Because it helps each of the occasions out to be even happier or give comfort.
When will I start to see results?
It really depends on how focused you are n how much time you spend practicing with. I sometimes have students requesting to have lessons with me more than once a week. I tell them directly n right away that it seems like a waste of money. Having a multiple time of lesson per week does not make you play better or learn faster. You should rather practice more everyday or at least 5 days a week at least than 2 to 3 days a week, for example. Having a great teacher would help to be able to learn quickly or play well, of course, than a someone who is not as famous. However, students should not think taking many lessons per week would automatically make them play superbly well all of a sudden. There is no easy thing we can accomplish in life, especially in music. This is something you being able to accomplish a tiny bit at a time by doing it everyday, diligently, n sincerely.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
I usually prefer teaching students who are at least 6 yrs old of the age. The reason is a lot of times the students who are younger than that do not seem to read or write n that makes the piano learning experience pretty difficult n frustrating for both the instructor n the student. I think the student doesn't have to read or write fluently, but at least be able to read the 7 alphabet we use in music, n be able to count 1 to 10 since we have 10 fingers. Also i have experienced before that if a student doesn't read, they don't know what their home work is. Therefore, someone like their mom or dad always have to tell them what it is by reading it for them. Quite inconvenient i would say.
