David S. G

I have worked professionally with children in every age group including age 2, and adults of elderly age. I also have worked with those with ADHD, post stroke, type 1 diabetes ect so I am very comfortable and sympathetic to adjustments whenever necessary. I'm a yoga instructor, and have a very easy going vibe, though I am surprisingly organized and believe in always finding creative techniques to surpass our goals sooner than thought possible.

Instruments: Piano Synthesizer Keyboard

I feel joy to see students serious about study piano and I feel more gladness to see students progress. But sometimes teaching style it depends on student's preference, learning ability,learning speed. - To know where to start teach, in each beginning of piano lesson, student take few minutes quiz, this is for me as a piano teacher know what students need to work on the piano keyboard -By end of the piano lesson, to make student progress play piano, I will assign two songs for students practice at their leisure time Read More

Fernando P

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet

I like to play audio/recordings for the students when possible, so that the student has an idea of the style, or the piece that we are studying.  This gives them something to reference to, but also gives them an aural aspect in their playing/practice habits. I also model for them constantly, so that they get more visual and aural reinforcement.  I sometimes give them short music concept/vocabulary assignments, such as learning the names of the notes on the staff, counting rhythms, meters, etc; all having to do with music theory and musical concepts that can be directly applied to their practical aspect of playing.

Eric R

Instruments: Piano Trumpet Saxophone Euphonium

From the beginning phase, I figure out over the long-term what your student is motivated by and create a lesson plan around it. Some students like to compose their own songs and record them. Some like to write sheet music on the computer. Some love the enjoyment of the next challenging song on sheet music. I believe it is imperative a teacher has a malleable customizable approach for every student because we all have different personalities and preferences. Read More

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute

For beginners, I like to use affordable books such as "Standard of Excellence" or "Essential Elements." For intermediate and advanced students, I will present materials based off of the student's interests. Read More

Jamie C

Instruments: Piano

As with methods, I do not have one lesson style.  My approach with a three year old is different than with a seventy year old. I am detailed in my critiques, but patient, positive, and creative with explanations.  My goal is for the students to learn to love and appreciate music and for them to use it not as a short term goal, but as something they can live with and enjoy for the rest of their lives.  I sets appropriate goals with recitals, festivals and examinations to both motivate and encourage students, ensuring that they have a positive experience.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Set specific goals: It's important to have a clear idea of what you want to achieve in each practice session. Setting specific goals helps you stay focused and motivated. Establish a routine: Try to practice at the same time each day, so that it becomes a habit. This will help you make consistent progress. Start slow: When learning a new piece or technique, start by practicing slowly and gradually increase your speed as you become more comfortable. Break it down: If a piece or technique seems too difficult, break it down into smaller sections and focus on mastering each section before moving on to the next. Use a metronome: A metronome can help you keep a steady tempo and improve your timing. Record yourself: Recording yourself while practicing can help you identify areas that need improvement and track your progress over time. Take breaks: It's important to take breaks during practice sessions to avoid burnout and give your brain and muscles time to rest. Stay positive: Remember that learning a new skill takes time and effort. Stay positive and celebrate your progress, no matter how small. By following these tips, you can practice effectively and make consistent progress in your musical journey.

When will I start to see results?
Practice habits: How often and how effectively you practice can greatly affect your progress. Practicing for short periods every day is more effective than practicing for longer periods less frequently. Previous musical experience: If you have previous experience playing an instrument or reading music, you may find it easier to learn the piano and progress more quickly. Difficulty of the repertoire: The difficulty of the music you are learning can also affect how quickly you see results. Starting with simple pieces and gradually increasing the difficulty can help you progress more smoothly. With consistent practice, you can expect to see some results within a few months. You may notice improvements in your hand-eye coordination, finger dexterity, and ability to read music. However, becoming proficient at the piano and being able to play more complex pieces can take several years of dedicated practice. It's important to remember that learning to play the piano is a journey and not a destination. Enjoy the process and celebrate your progress along the way. With patience and perseverance, you can achieve your goals and become a skilled pianist.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Age: Generally, children can start taking piano lessons at around age 5 or 6. However, every child is different and some may be ready to start earlier or later. Interest: Does your child express an interest in playing the piano? If they seem curious about the instrument and enjoy listening to music, it may be a good time to start lessons. Attention span: Piano lessons require a certain level of focus and attention. If your child has a short attention span, you may want to wait until they are a bit older and better able to concentrate. Physical ability: Playing the piano requires good hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills. If your child has difficulty with activities that require these skills, such as coloring or writing, they may not be ready for piano lessons just yet. Parental support: Learning the piano requires practice at home, so it's important that parents are willing and able to support their child's practice sessions and attend lessons regularly. Ultimately, the decision to start piano lessons should be based on your child's individual needs and interests.

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.
