Jamie R

Instruments: Piano

For each of my student's lessons, I have them play for me their pieces from the lesson book and their scales and arpeggios. At the end of the lesson, I take a few notes for the student so they know what to focus on or fix for their pieces, as well as keep track of which key they are working on for their scales. I love to see my students improve and gain a passion for their instrument. Read More

Fruzsina L

Instruments: Piano

My primary desire for teaching piano is to make a positive impact on children as individuals. In the spring of 2022, I received my Master of Music diploma with a Concentration in Music Education from California Baptist University. I grew up in Veszprém, Hungary, where I started playing the piano at age 7. In 2010 I began her studies at Csermák Antal Music School in Veszprém, where I took lessons from jazz pianist and composer Orsolya Lakatos. Read More

Amy L

Instruments: Piano Keyboard

I began my career teaching privately in Beverly Hills in 2004, and also worked with the Yamaha Music school (Los Angeles branch) in 2005. In addition to teaching beginners, I also trained students for city competitions and recitals. A few years later, I was able to collaborate with SOMA music school in Diamond Bar and taught piano performance to students of various abilities. In 2009, I relocated to Korea temporarily and worked for the Yamaha Music school (Seoul branch), teaching musical development for younger children as well as giving private lessons to beginner-intermediate level students.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice

I am extremely passionate about music and teaching.

I am very comfortable adjusting to the styles and needs of my students, and look forward for the privledge to contribute to their musical journey in any way possible. Read More

Carlos M

Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin Saxophone Bass Guitar Organ Acoustic Guitar

My goal for every student especially the beginners is to make them play like a pro as soon as possible with emphasis on playing music by ear. My way of teaching is kind of unconventional because based on my experience, it took me a long time before I was able to play any song that I like since reading notes would require unwavering attention and huge effort depending on student’s skills to be able to play it perfectly.

Rich A

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 Saxophone Flute

I have taught some students while attending Morgan State University in Baltimore, MD. I've also taught a master class to university students in Colombia, South America while on tour with the Morgan State Jazz Combo. I enjoy teaching to all ages! Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Nicholas L

Instruments: Trumpet

Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Many of my students were from North Carolina and were not available to transfer with me via online teachings. However, the one I still do teach is now performing with local community bands as well as getting spots in the local high school marching bands as a home-schooled 7th grader!

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Recently, my performances on Royal Caribbean International Cruise Lines. Not only was this a big step on my personal career, but it was the acknowledgement that I am good enough to perform on a stage. Often, gigs are gained from recommendations from others, but this one was completely on my own. Earning #1 Music in Tampa Ports while I was onboard and constantly get call-backs from the music directors asking me to come back gave me a sense of being desired which was a great change.

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I was at a concert as a young child where a trumpet player was on stage. I told my mom "I want to play that!" taking some inspiration from my brother who played tuba at the time. The story was told around family, and my grandfather bought me one for Christmas without any of my family knowing about it! Though they were upset at the time, they're quite happy with the results now.

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My professors at Appalachian State University, Dr James Stokes and Dr Rusty Smith, both had (and still do!) a huge impact on my music career. They're brilliance, focus, and determination were inspiring. However, they're willingness to connect with me, take the time to understand me, invest their time into me, and treating me with care really gave me the confidence to continue.

When will I start to see results?
The student will get out of it what they put in. Beginning students will see results immediately, but it will still be a slow process. Building good habits take time. Older students need time to grasp concepts, relearn different thought processes, and understand how my teaching philosophy works. Lessons are learned via imitation. They play with, understand how I sound, and then try to apply that to themselves. This process can vary very wildly depending on the students' imagination.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Often, trumpet should start around age 10 (depending on development of each individual), but every student is different! I often offer a free trial to see if the student can even make a sound. If so, we can move on from there.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Take your time! You shouldn't be rushing through a practice session, as thay tends to lead to stress. Take breaks, take time, and understand what you're trying to get out of each session.

Saxophone Brands: Finding Your Perfect Horn

...end up paying significantly more in money and time for frequent repairs. Believe me; I played a cheap Taiwanese horn for a job every day for six months. These horns are just not the same quality. They don’t sound as good and the metal is often extremely pliable. For a little bit more money, you could get a used Yamaha student model, which is a great quality student horn.   An added note to consider concerning soprano saxes is that vintage sopranos don’t have as spot-on intonation as modern horns. Some are fine, but you should always play test them. Personally, my tenor and alto were... Read More

...string tuned higher than the G string, a high B. Some players find the extra strings useful. You can find different chord shapes, have a greater frequency range than a traditional bass, and conserve some hand movement with notes being more accessible on more parts of the neck. However, some bassists prefer the traditional 4 strings claiming that you can find any sound you need with 4 strings and these extra notes on a 5 or 6 string bass do not belong in the bass range. Another consideration for a bass guitar is whether or not you want frets. A fretted bass guitar is more common, however you ... Read More

...“automatic” and “non-mental” repetition, then go on to describe more conceptual memorization strategies (IE those involving an understanding of musical theory, harmony, and form) as a kind of backup plan or tool for long term development of general memorization skills (Chaffin, et. al. Practicing Perfection: Memory and Piano Performance, pub. Lawrence Erlbaum, 2002. p. 36). In my experience, the loss of continuity due to skipping practice is the most common reason adults quit their piano lessons. It is often due to an inability to set aside the time, or sometimes to being too impatient about taking the time to master a concept before advancing to another, that adults quit ... Read More

An all-in-one device is even easier than the DAW option, and it will typically include all necessary instructions for setup. However, they often do not provide the best results. More complicated options, such as a reel-to-reel, require years of training and practice in order to achieve the high-quality results that they are capable of.   Take Advantage of Sound Checks   Because you only have one chance when you are recording live music, it’s especially important that everything is set up correctly. ...

The Best Age to Start Singing Lessons

... When parents are considering music lessons for their child, many times they will gravitate to voice lessons because their child loves to sing. But what is the best age to start singing lessons? Many parents ask for voice lessons for students as young as 3 or 4 years old, but formal vocal training is not usually successful or appropriate for students this young. It is best to begin voice lessons once the student’s voice is more grounded and they have begun to go through puberty. Similar to how a fine wine gets better with age, the vocal quality and tone of a person’s voice continues to change through different phases of their life. Once a student has started the process of going through puberty, they will ... Read More

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.
